D                                A
Keep that candle burnin' bright, mama
                              D
I'll be kind of late tonight, mama
D                               A
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
           D           G
Keep that doorway open wide
D                    A                 D 
Until we come slowly strollin' side by side
D                                 A
While that candle's shinin' high, mama
                           D
I'll be with my sugar pie, mama
D                             A
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
           D           G
Keep that doorway open wide
D                    A                 D 
Until we come slowly strollin' side by side

SOLO in D   then end on Bb

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