Chord/Tab song: Standing too Close to the Flame

David Allan CoeStanding Too Close To The Flame

[D]They say love is a fire thats a lesson that Ive learned
And if you play with fire babe someday youll get burned
[G]If you dont take this warning your young life will never be the [D]same
A (stop) D
Im tellin you now girl youre Standing Too Close To The Flame.

[D]They say dont light the match unless you can put out the fire
Its much too late to stop now Im burning with desire
My [G]whole body is shaking and you say you arent feeling any [D]shame
A (stop) D
Im tellin you now girl youre Standing Too Close To The Flame.

[G]You see the sparks flying every time that we [D]touch
[G]When you hold me close babe thats just a little too [A]much
I can almost smell the smoke now.

D G D A (stop) D

[D]They say love is a fire thats a lesson that Ive learned

[G]See the sparks flying every time that we [D]touch
