Intro 1
(D major)
Verse 1
She gave me matches (D major)
Seven wooden (G major) matches
She put them in (D major) to a small, slim glass jar
With a screw- top (G major) lid
And I fingered (D major) that jar
I put it in my pock (G major) et
She said, "Can't go (D major) into the
woods without them"
I smiled at her and (G major) left
Verse 2
And I kept them (Asus4) dry (A major)
And as (G major) long as there were six
I'd be fine (Asus4) (A major)
As (G major) long as there were five
Matches in that (D major) jar
Mile (G major) after mile
Verse 3
On the chick- chick- (D major) chick chick
sound of the matches
On the memory of her (G major) smile

And as (G major) long as there were five
I'd be fine (A major)
As (G major) long as there were four
Matches in a (D major) jar
Verse 5
With a screw- top (G major) lid
I know (D major) she did not mean
to hurt my (G major) feel (D major) ings
But that's what she did
(G major)

Matches in (D major) that jar
