      Dm7                                               C
Boots on bar stool three fingers ninety proof nothing's broken

       Dm7                                          C
Having me a good time trying to keep my mind in the moment

            Em7                                                   F
I should be burning up the neon but I'm stirring up the morning regret

            Em7                                                   F   G
It's like I know it's gonna happen even though it isn't happenin' yet
[Chorus]
         C                                              Am7
Why does one more night sound right when I know that it don't

       Dm7                                                 G
Why do last-call lights make me call you when I say that I won't

       C
Why do goodbye songs make me want you so bad

       Am7
Girl I know that it's wrong but your kiss is a glass

        Dm7
Of good whiskey I can't water down

    F               Fm           C
Old flames are hard fires to put out
[Verse 2]
        Dm7
Nothing said at the door

Dm7
As your dress hits the floor

        C
Get the match lit

       Dm7
From a spark to a bed

Dm7
You'll be gone I'll be left

         F
With the ashes

          G
It always happens
[Chorus]
         C                                              Am7
Why does one more night sound right when I know that it don't

       Dm7                                                 G
Why do last-call lights make me call you when I say that I won't

       C
Why do goodbye songs make me want you so bad

       Am7
Girl I know that it's wrong but your kiss is a glass

        Dm7
Of good whiskey I can't water down

    F               Fm       C
Old flames are hard fires to put out
[Bridge]
      Bb                         F
Every time I think it's over you wind up coming over

F
Yeah you wind up coming over

        Dm7    C/E     F           Am          G
And the moving on gets lost in the heat of the smoke

G
So hell if I know
[Chorus]
         C                                              Am7
Why does one more night sound right when I know that it don't

       Dm7                                                 G
Why do last-call lights make me call you when I say that I won't

       C
Why do goodbye songs make me want you so bad

       Am7
Girl I know that it's wrong but your kiss is a glass

        Dm7
Of good whiskey I can't water down

Dm7
I can't water down

    F               Fm           C
Old flames are hard fires to put out
[Outro]

Hard fires
