G Am7 G/B C x 2

G Am7 G/B CStanding at the bus stop with my shopping in my hands
G Am7 G/B CAnd I'm overhearing elder ladies as the rumours start to fly
G Am7You can hear them in the school yard, in the scrap yard
G/B C In the chip shop, in the phone box
G Am7 G/B CIn the pool hall, at the shoe store, every corner turned around
G Am7It started with a school girl who was running
G/B CRunning home to her Mam and Dad
G Am7 G/B CTold them she was playing, in the change room of the local football side
G Am7 G/BThey said tell us again, she told them again, tell us the truth, they found
Cit hard to believe
G Am7 G/B'Cause he taught our Steve, he even trained me, taught our John who's a
Cfather of three
Am7 Fmaj7 COnly takes one tree, to make 1000 matches
Am7 Only takes one match,
Fmaj7 C G Am7 G/B Cto burn A thousaaaaand trees
G Am7 G/B CA thousand trees
GYou see it in the classroom
Am7In the swimming pool
G/B CWhere the match stick men are made
GAt the scout's hall
Am7At the football
G/B CWhere the wise we trust are paid
GThey all honour his name
Am7He did a lot for the game
G/B CGot his name knocked up above the sports ground gates
G Am7But they're ripping them down, stamping the ground
G/B CPicture gathers dust behind the bar in the lounge
Am7 Fmaj7 COnly takes one tree, to make a thousand matches
Am7 Fmaj7 C G Am7 G/B COnly takes one match, to burn a thousaaaand trees
G Am7 G/B CA thousand trees
D Fmaj7 C Wake up, and smell the rain
D Fmaj7 C Shake up, he's back to stay
D Fmaj7 C He hasn't been on a holiday
D Fmaj7 Growing seeds don't believe
C G Am7 G/B CWhy he's beeeeen awaaaaay
G Am7 G/B C x 3
G Am7 G/B CIn the school yard, changing room, playing field, bathroom
G Am7 G/B CPhone box, office blocks, corners turn around
G Am7They keep doubting the flame, tossing the blame
G/B CGot his name knocked up above the sports ground gates
G Am7And they're ripping them down, stamping the ground
G/B CPicture gathers dust in the bar in the lounge
Am7 Fmaj7 COnly takes one tree, to make a thousand matches
Am7 Fmaj7 C G Am7 G/B COnly takes one match, to burn a thousaaaand trees
G Am7 G/B CA thousand trees
G Am7 G/B CA thousand trees
