Note:  Lots of folks helped me out with the title, artist, and album
information.  Thanks to:  Dee Mussleman, Dan Nicholds, Randy Hawryliw, Bo
Frazer, Rodney Lipps, Adam Lenhart, Jim Nelson, Kathy Ort, Tracy Switzer,
Jeremy D. Henson, Jeremy Henson, (two different Jeremys)and thanks to anyone
who replied after I already sent this song to COWPIE. I did get George Jones
and Mark Chesnutt for the artist but I went with Joe Diffie because the song
I tabbed sounded like Joe.

New Way to light up an old flame    Joe Diffie


CHORUS:
A                                                D
I'm gonna find me a new way to light up an old flame
A                                                       E
With a little bit of luck and a hug there's gonna be a big change
             D               A
I've got a strong desire to start the kind of fire
 F#m                             D
that'll burn through a pouring rain
A                    E                          A
I'm gonna find me a new way to light up an old flame


    A                         D
1.)I've had all that I can stand
                       A
I've got roses in my hand
                         E
Got odd feelings in my heart
A                        D
Now I'm knocking on her door
                      A
I can't stay away no more
                       E
'Cause we're no good apart

Chorus, lead, 2nd verse

     A                        D
2.) I'm going take her out tonight
                             A
And put a spark back in her eye
                      E
That will never fade away
A                             D
She'll see the love inside of me
                          A
A sight she never got to see
                        E
She won't know what to say

key change, chorus

A#                                               D#
I'm gonna find me a new way to light up and old flame
A#                                                      F
With a little bit of luck and a hug there's gonna be a big change
             D#              A#
I've got a strong desire to start the kind of fire
Gm                              D#
that'll burn through a pouring rain
A#                   F                          A#
I'm gonna find me a new way to light up an old flame
