Capo 2

[Intro]
C  F  C  F

[Verse]
C                    C/B   Am             Am/G
We met at The Broken Spoke Restaurant and Lounge
  F                            Dm                G
I lit your cigarette, then you wrote your number down
       C                     C/B      Am                Am/G
On the inside of a matchbook that was layin' on the bar
      F                    G               C
And a fire started burning somewhere in my heart

  C                     C/B     Am                    Am/G
I didn't see it comin', guess I didn't read the signs
       F                            Dm             G
I just never thought you'd leave me after all this time
       C                     Am/G       Am            Am/G
But to day when I came home, my key was hollow in the door
              F                              G                 C
And there was nothin' but a worn out book of matches on the fl oor

[Chorus]
             F
You took the bed
             G              C
You took the dishes and the car
And you broke my trust
                Am            Am/G
And you took ad vantage of my heart
                F
And you left me here
           Dm                   G         F
With empty rooms and walls with holes and scars and scratches
     Am                   Am/G      F
If I find the strength to burn your memory down
Dm G              C
At least you left the matches

[Instrumental]
C  F  C  F

[Verse]
    C                      C/B Am                       Am/G
The color's old and faded, the cover's worn and stained
          F                                  Dm                G
But I can still make out the numbers and the heart beside your name
   C                       C/B   Am               Am/G
Un til tonight they'd only lit a single cigarette
    F                               G           C
Now one by one I'm striking them to help me for get
    Am        G             F
And everybody at The Broken Spoke
              Am                  G         Dm
Well they all thought my crazy st ory was a joke
            Am             G
Now they're all out in the parking lot
F
Staring at the (No Chord) smoke

[Chorus]
             F
You took the bed
             G              C
You took the dishes and the car
And you broke my trust
                Am            Am/G
And you took ad vantage of my heart
                F
And you left me here
           Dm                   G         F
With empty rooms and walls with holes and scars and scratches
     Am                   Am/G      F
If I find the strength to burn your memory down
Dm G              C
At least you left the matches

C/B   Am                 Am/G        F
Baby, all that's left of our love is ashes
Dm    G             C
Thank God, you left the matches
