Chords for Passenger | A Thousand Matches (featuring Isobel Anderson & Stu Larsen) (Official Video)

[G] Black is the color of my true love's hair
Her lips are like the [F] roses' fair
She's the [G] sweetest smile and her gentlest hands
I love the ground on where she stands
_ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ [G#m] _ _ _ [N] _
_ [E] _ _ [F#] _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Quiet on the mattress, cause my friend's crazy sister took me a better way
_ Sleeping she looked like an actress
Here I am in practice, I said there's got to be a better way
She said you light a thousand matches
When you finally set fire, well you run away
_ _ [B] So why'd you go and do it
[E] When you knew that you were going, I would stay
_ I hit the wall in frustration, the conversation
Circling for days, _ she said don't take it out on him
The world has always been supportive in the best of ways
We're laughing and crying like madmen dying in the snow
For _
[B] _ just one [G#m] second it was funny [F#] that she would have to stay in [E] all the cold _
_ She said love you, no, I love you so
When you love someone, well you've got to let them know
Nothing's changed, I love you the same
When you love someone sometimes, you've got to let them go _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ She handed me a stone in the perfect shape of a heart
_ _ She said I'm gonna take this home
For I know you'll only lose it somewhere I've gone
_ _ In some faceless hotel room where you seem to lose everything you own
She _ didn't mean it how it sounded
What she meant was she would stay and I would go _ _
I said love you, [B] no, I [E] love you so
When you love someone, well you've got to let them know
Nothing's changed, I love you the same
When you love someone sometimes, you've got to let them go
_ _ Sometimes you tear it all apart to see the wood from the trees
Sometimes you break your own [C#] heart
To see [E] your own self
I _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] walked to the station, hesitation in [C#] our movements
[D] _ _ [A] _ _
[G#m] Words [A] finally left after realizing how [B] uncomfortable we'd been _
_ _ What you want and what you need, well they [G#] seldomly succeed to grow
We _ _ reluctantly agree
[A] When you love someone, you've got to let [B] them go
_ _ [E] _ _ [N] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
