GAmBmC
GStaAmndinBmg atC the bus stop with my shopping in my hands
When Gim over hearingAm elder ladies aBms the rumours stCart to fly
You can hear em in the Gschoolyard, in a sAmcrapyard, in a cBmhip shop,
in a Cphone box, in theG pool hall, at the Amshoe store, everyBm corner turned aCround
It started with a Gschoolgirl, who was rAmunning, runningBm home to her mum andC dad
She told them she was Gplaying, in the Amchange room of herBm local football Cside
They said tell us agaGin, so she told them Amagain, they said tell us the tBmruth they
found it hard to bCelieve
cause he taught our Gsteve, he even trainedAm me, taught uncle John BmWho's a father of
Cthree
But it only Amtakes one tree, to Bmmake a thousand Cmatches
It only Amtakes one match, to Cburn a Dthousand trees, a thousand trees
You see it Gin the classroom, Amin the swimming pool, wheBmre the matchstick Cmen are made
In the Gscouts hall, at theAm football, where theBm wise we trust areC paid
They all honur hisG name, he did alot for theAm game
BmHe got his name knocked up above the sports ground gates
But now there Gripping them down, Amstamping the ground, picture Bmgathers dust
behind the bar in theC lounge
But it only Amtakes one tree, to mBmake a thousandC matches
It only Amtakes one match, to Cburn a Dthousand trees, a thousand trees
DWake up, smCell the rain
DShake up heC's back to stay
DHe hasnt been Con a holiday
DHis growing seeds Amdont beliCeve why he's been,D yeaah
GAmBmC
Away in the Gschoolyard, chAmange room, Bmplaying fields bCathroom
GPhonebox, ofAmfice box, everyBm corner turned Caround,
They keep doubting the Gflame, tossing the Amblame,
He got his nBmame knocked up above tChe sports ground gates,
But now Gthere ripping them dAmown, stamping the ground,
BmPicture gathers dust behCind the bar in the lounge
But it only Amtakes one tree, to mBmake a thousandC matches,
It only Amtakes one match, to Cburn a Dthousand treees.
