Old Flames Song lyrics and guitar chords

Recorded by Foster And Allen and written by Siebert/Moffan. I have included the basic sheet music also. I have included the guitar chords in the key of D and G in chordpro. The version I'm playing in the youtube video is in the key of D. The song was also covered by Merle Haggard, Dolly Parton, Kesha, Alabama, Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson who also wrote Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain Song which Irish folk singers Foster And Allen also sing..
Song Lyrics And Guitar Chords

​Down[D] town tonight,I saw an old flame someone[G] who,
I[A] used to take comfort from[G] long before I met[D] you,[A],,
I caught a[D] spark from her eye,a forgotten[G] desire,
With a[A] word or a toch love I[G] could have rekindled that[D] fire.
[Chorus]
But[D] old flames cant hold a candle to[G] you,
[A]No one can light up the night like you[D] do,[A],,
Flickering[D] embers of love I've known one or[G] two,
But[A] old flames cant hold a candle to[D] you,
[2]
Sometimes at night I think of the lovers I've known,
And I remember how holding them,
Helped me not feel so alone,
Then I feel you beside me,and even their memories are gone,
Like the stars in the night,lost in the sweet light of dawn,
[Repeat chorus twice]
Old Flames Chords in the key of G
Down[G] town tonight,I saw an old flame someone[C] who,
I[D] used to take comfort from[C] long before I met[G] you,[D],,
I caught a[G] spark from her eye,a forgotten[C] desire,
With a[D] word or a touch love I[C] could have rekindled that[G] fire.

But[G] old flames cant hold a candle to[C] you,
[D]No one can light up the night like you[G] do,[D],,
Flickering[G] embers of love I've known one or[C] two,
But[D] old flames cant hold a candle to[G] you,
