Here's Elvis Costello's "The Only Flame in Town". This transcription is based on the live version of the Ryko reissue of "Goodbye Cruel World", but it works well witht the studio version too, except in someplace they use the ending chords in the middle and there are some walk ups - enjoy.
Intro E
*verse 1*
I know a girl, got my mind in a mess
I never heard her say goodnight and God bless
She's not the only flame in town
*verse 2 - same except were noted* And when we're alone we never quarrel I'm miles away, now here's the moral
She's not the only flame in town
*chorus*
She's not the only flame in town
She's got to stop thinking that I'm
Carrying this torch around
*verse 3 - same as verse 1* He struck a match and lit up her face We should have struck a match girl To burn down the whole place Now you're not the only flame in town
*verse 4 - same as verse 2* But you blew hot and cold Turnmy heart to a cinder And with each passing day You'd be less tender and more tinder Now you're not the only flame in the town
*chorus - same* She's not the only flame in town She's got to stop thinking that I'm Carrying this torch around
*verse 5 -same as verse 1 except where noted* Thought I saw your face in the fire But its so hard to remember Even an inferno can cool down to an ember Now you're not the only flame
