[Intro]

C D G G

[Verse 1]

I guess your off to have your fun

another ending just begun

and I know what I don't see

really shouldn't bother me

N.C.

so go and have yourself a ball

you'll be at no one's beck and call

C D

and with that fire in your eyes, another lovers moon will rise

someone else will take the fall

[Chorus]

Am7 G/B C

and that's just the way you are

i've known all along

some candles always burn

even when the night is gone

G/B C

but the strongest of flames

won't burn eternally

C D

when you find another friend, who lights your candle up again

you can burn one down for me

[Verse 2]

N.C.

So you don't matter anymore

I'll convince myself I'm sure

as if I give a damn

that's just the way I am

So go on and pour yourself some wine

with who'll ever spend your time

C D

'cause anyone can see, you won't be cryin' over me

and you never were that kind

[Chorus]

Am7 G/B C

and that's just the way you are

i've known all along

some candles always burn

even when the night is gone

G/B C

but the strongest of flames

won't burn eternally

C D

when you find another friend, who lights your candle up again

you can burn one down for me

[Outro]

Am7

when you find another friend

who'll light your candle up again

C D G G

you can burn one down for me
