Burn That Candle

Emmylou Harris

 DA
 Keep that candle burnin' bright, mama
 D
I'll be kind of late tonight, mama
 DA
 There's a yellow moon above me, mama
 D
Shinin' on the one I love, mama
 D
 Burn that candle, night and day
 A
Burn that candle, honey, light our way
 DG
Keep that doorway open wide
 DAD
 Until we come slowly strollin' side by side
 DA
 While that candle's shinin' high, mama
 D
I'll be with my sugar pie, mama
 DA
 We'll be comin' home you know mama
 D
Lookin' for that candle glowin', mama
 D
 Burn that candle, night and day
 A
Burn that candle, honey, light our way
 DG
Keep that doorway open wide
 DAD
 Until we come slowly strollin' side by side

SOLO in D then end on Bb

 EbBb
 After we have had the wedding, mama
 BbEb
 To that candle we'll be headin', mama
 Bb
So before we're winin' and dinin', mama
 BbEb
 Keep that candle light a-shinin', mama
 Eb
 Burn that candle, night and day
 Bb
Burn that candle, honey, light our way
 EbAb
Keep that doorway open wide
 EbBbEb
 Until we come slowly strollin' side by side
