D             A                 Bm              Fm 
    I burn with desire each time my heart fans the fire 
            G                               D    A 
    Of that old flame that burns inside of me 
    D                A               Bm       Fm 
    She cried when I left her, now I cry to forget her 
             Em                          A* A 
    Oh, how foolish I was to ever wanna leave 
 
    D                    Bm                  G+     
    Cause nobody in his right mind would've left her 
    D            Bm             Gm7   A 
    I had to be crazy to say goodbye 
    D             Bm                    G+ 
    Nobody in his right mind would've left her 
            Em               A              D      Bm  G+  A 
    Even my heart was smart enough to stay behind 
 
    I still carry her picture, I wish her well with that new love 
    I know she's found by now 
    Each night finds me dreaming, each day I spend thinking 
    How much I wish she was still around 
 
            Em              A                 D     Bm  G+  A 
    Even my heart was smart enough to stay behind...
