[Intro 1]
[G][Am][Bm][C]
[G][Am][Bm][C]

[Verse 1]
[G]Standing at the [Am]bus stop
with my [Bm]shopping in my [C]hands
When I'm over[G]hearing elder [Am]ladies
As the [Bm]rumors start to [C]fly
Hear them in the [G]school yard,
in the [Am]scrap yard
In the [Bm]chip shop, in the [C]phone box
In the [G]pool hall, at the [Am]shoe store
Every [Bm]corner turned [C]around

[Verse 2]
It started with a [G]school girl who was [Am]running
Running [Bm]home to her mam and [C]dad
Told them she was [G]playing
in the [Am]change room
of her [Bm]local football [C]side
They said "tell us [G]again"
so she told them [Am]again
They said "tell us the [Bm]truth
I find it hard to [C]believe
'cause he taught our [G]Steve
he even trained [Am]me
taught uncle [Bm]john who's a father of [C]three"

[Chorus 1]
Only [Am]takes one tree
to [F]make a thousand [C]matches
Only [Am]takes one match
to [F]burn a [C]thousand [G]tre[Am]es[Bm][C]
Thou[G]sand [Am]trees[Bm][C]

[Verse 3]
You see it in the [G]class room
In the [Am]swimming pool
Where the [Bm]matchstick men are [C]made
At the [G]scouts hall, at the [Am]football
Where the [Bm]wise we trust are [C]paid
They all honour his [G]name
He did a lot for the [Am]game
Got his [Bm]name knocked up
above the [C]sports ground gates
Now they are [G]ripping them down
[Am]stamping the ground
[Bm]Picture gathers dust in [C]the bar

[Chorus 2]
And only [Am]takes one tree
to [F]make a thousand [C]matches
Only [Am]takes one match
to [F]burn a [C]thousand [G]tre[Am]es[Bm][C]
Thou[G]sand [Am]trees[Bm][C]

[Bridge 1]
[D]Wake up [F]and smell the rai[C]n
[D]Shake up he'[F]s back to sta[C]y
[D]He hasn't been on a hol[F]iday[C]
[D]Growing seeds don't belie[F]ve
why [C]he's [G]been [Am]away[Bm][C]
[G][Am][Bm][C]
[G][Am][Bm][C]
[G][Am][Bm][C]

[Verse 4]
In the [G]school yard, [Am]change room
[Bm]Playing fields, [C]bathroom
[G]Phone box, [Am]office blocks
[Bm]Corners turned [C]around
They keep doubting the [G]flame
Tossing the [Am]blame
Got his [Bm]name knocked up
above the sports [C]ground gates
Now they are [G]ripping them down
[Am]stamping the ground
[Bm]Picture gathers dust in the [C]bar

[Chorus 3]
And only [Am]takes one tree
to [F]make a thousand [C]matches
Only [Am]takes one match
to [F]burn a [C]thousand [G]tre[Am]es[Bm][C]
Thou[G]sand [Am]trees[Bm][C]
Thou[G]sand [Am]trees[Bm][C]
Thou[G]sand [Am]trees[Bm][C]
