_ [G] _ I'm standing at [Am] the bus stop with [G] my shopping in [C] my hands and I'm [G] overhearing [Am] elderly ladies
[G] as the rumours [C] start to fly.
[D] I hear them in the school yard, in the scrap yard, [G] in the chip shop, [C] in the phone box,
[A] in the pool hall, at the shoe stall, every [G] corner [C] turned around.
[G] I was running with a [Am] schoolgirl who was running, running home to [C] her mum and dad.
Told them she [G] was playing in [Am] the change room of [G] the local [C] football side.
They [G] said, tell us again, [Am] she told them again, tell us the [G] truth.
They [C] found it hard to believe because he thought I [G] was sneak, he even [Am] trained me.
He told Uncle [G] John, [C] who's a father of three, [Am] only takes one dream.
[C] To make a thousand matches only [Am] takes one match.
[F] To [C] burn a thousand [G] _ _ [Am] _
[G] trees, [C] _ _ [G] thousand _ [Am]
trees.
[G] _ [C] _ _ [G] Sitting in the classroom, [Am] on the swimming pool, [G] with a [C] matching man and man.
[G] At the scout hall, [Am] at the football, [G] with the wives we [C] trust to pay.
They all [G] honoured his name, did a [Am] lot for the game.
[G] Got his name [C] marked everywhere, the sports [G] ground,
big men they're ripping them [Am] down, stamping the ground.
[C] Together, they're busting the bar in the middle of the [Am] day.
Takes one dream, [D] to make a thousand [C] matches, only [Am] takes one [F] match.
To [C] burn a thousand [G] _ _
[Am] _ trees, [C] _ _ thousand [D] _
[Am] trees.
To _ [C] _ wake [D] _ _
[F] up, [C] smell the [D] rain, shake [C] up, he's back to stay.
_ [D] _
Hasn't been [C] on a holiday, _ [D] _ growing seeds [C] don't believe, why [G] he's been [Am] _
[G] away.
_ [C] _ _ [G] In [Am] _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ [Bm] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ [G] _ _ _ the school yard, [A]
change room, [G] playing fields, [C] bathroom,
phone box, [A]
office [G] blocks, corners turned around.
They keep doubting the flame, [A] tossing the blame.
Got his name marked up [C] above the sports ground,
[G] games and they're ripping them [A] down, stamping the [G] ground.
They're together, [C] busting the bar in the [Am] long, it takes one dream.
[C] To make a thousand matches, [Am] only takes one match.
[C] To burn a thousand [G] _ _ [Am] _
[G] trees, [C] _ _ [D] thousand _ [Am] _
