Intro D Bm G Asus A
(D) We met at the Broken Spoke
(Bm) restaurant and lounge
I (G) lit your cigarette
then you (A7sus) wrote your number down (A7)
On the (D) inside of a matchbook
that was (Bm) laying on the bar
And a (G) fire started burning
(Asus7) somewhere (A) in my (D) heart
I (D) didn't see it coming
guess I (Bm) didn't read the signs
I just (G) never thought you'ld leave me
(A7sus) after all this time (A7)
But (D) today when I came home
my key was (Bm) hollow in the door
There was (G) nothin' but a worn out
book of (A7sus) matches (A) on the (D) floor
You took the (G) bed
you took the (A7sus) dishes and the (A7) car
You broke my (D) trust (D2)(D)
and you took (Am7) advantage of my (Am7/D) heart
And you left me (G) here
with empty (Bm) rooms and walls with (A) holes
and scares and (G) scratches
If I (Bm) find the strength to (A) burn your memory (G) down
(A7sus) At (A) least you left the (D) matches
Bm G A7sus A
The (D) colors old and faded
the (Bm) covers worn and stained
But I can (G) still make out the numbers
and the (A7sus) heart beside your (A) name
Until (D) tonight they'd only
lit a (Bm) single cigarette
Now (G) one-by-one I'm striking them
to (A) help me to (D) forget
And (Bm) everybody (A) at the Broken (G) Spoke
Well they all (Bm) thought my crazy (A) story was a (G) joke
Now they're (Bm) all out in the (A) parking lot
(G) staring at the smoke
You took the (G) bed
you took the (A7sus) dishes and the (A7/B) car
You broke my (D) trust (D2)(D)
and you took (Am7) advantage of my (Am7/D) heart
And you left me (G) here
with empty (Bm) rooms and walls with (A) holes
and scares and (G) scratches
Now I've (Bm) found the strength to (A) burn your memory (G) down
(A7sus) Oh, at (A) least you left the (D) matches
Baby (Bm) all that's left of (A) our love now is (G) ashes
(A) Thank God you left the (D) matches Bm A7sus D
