 Song:    At Least You Left The Matches
 Artist:  Sammy Kershaw
 Album:   Labor of Love
 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
 
   ooo               ooo   oo   o  oo o o  oo   o  ooo  o

 This is the first song I've ever tab'd.  I enjoy this song
 so much I had to share it ... and I'll be doing more!
