David Allan Coe – Standing Too Close To The Flame

D

They say love is a fire that’s a lesson that I’ve learned

And if you play with fire babe someday you’ll get burned

G D

If you don’t take this warning your young life will never be the same

A (stop) D

I’m tellin’ you now girl you’re Standing Too Close To The Flame.

D

They say don’t light the match unless you can put out the fire

It’s much too late to stop now I’m burning with desire

G D

My whole body is shaking and you say you aren’t feeling any shame

A (stop) D

I’m tellin’ you now girl you’re Standing Too Close To The Flame.

G D

You see the sparks flying every time that we touch

G A

When you hold me close babe that’s just a little too much

I can almost smell the smoke now.

D G D A (stop) D
