Matches

D Bm We met at the Broken Spoke restaurant and lounge G Em A I lit your cigarette then you wrote your number down D Bm On the inside of a matchbook that was laying on the bar G A D And a fire started burning somewhere in my heart D Bm I didnt see it coming Guess I didnt read the signs G Em A I just never thought youd leave me after all this time D Bm But today when I came home my key was hollow in the door G A D There was nothing but a worn out book of matches on the floor CHORUS: G A D You took the bed you took the dishes and the car Bm And you broke my trust and you took advantage of my heart EG A And you left me here with empty rooms and walls with holes G scars and scrat-ches 1.)If I find the strength to burn your memory down 2.)Now I found Em D (2. Oh) At least you left the matches D Bm The colors are old and faded The covers worn and stained G Em A But I can still make out the numbers and the heart beside your name D Bm Until tonight theyd only lit a single cirgarette G A D Now one by one Im striking them to help me forget Bm A G And everybody at the Broken Spoke Bm A Em They all thought my crazy story was a joke Bm A G Now theyre all in the parking lot staring at the smoke go to chorus, then to ending. ENDING: Bm A G Baby all thats left of our love now is ashes Em D Thank God you left the matches
