CAPO 3

C G Am F

VERSE 1
(F)        C                             G
   I could catch just like a candle melt myself down to an end
    Am                         F
and have no way of ever coming back round here again
           C                              G                     Am
or I could glow just like an amber rising out of an autumn fire
                                 F
drifting to the heavens floating higher and higher
               Am                  G
you better hide your matches, boy 
        C                                           G                    Am
I could sparkle like thin white paper wrapped tight round some cigarette
                                                 F
and leave nothing but the smell of smoke and the bitter taste of regret
           C                                     G                Am
or I could get hot like them coals that turn the water into steam
                                   F
and fall down around you like some misty morning
               Am                 G
you better hide your matches, boy
               Am                 F
you better hide your matches, boy, oh

CHORUS

      C                    G                        Am
cause I'm bound to lose all I am right here in your arms
                        F
and it ain't gonna take much
                        C
and it ain't gonna take long
                      G                         Am
so you best turn your eyes if youre not ready tonight
                      F
to watch me burn like this
                     C       F
you better hide your matches

VERSE 2

        C
cause I can't afford to let you go
      G                     Am
I'm afraid to draw you near
                                      F
cause I could get so lost in you that I might dissapear
        C
and the words are on the tip of my tongue
    G                     Am
but you wont hear a sound
                                            F
cause once that fire gets going, there's no way to slow it down
               Am                 G
you better hide your matches, boy
               Am             F   G Am F
you better hide your matches, boy         yeah

CHORUS

(F)                  Am
you better hide your matches, boy
  G
oh yeah
               Am    F            C
you better hide your matches, boy
