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

[Verse 1]
[G]I remember
how we used to be so beautiful
You [Bm]broke my heart at 16
The first time I felt my world
come [C]crashing
Black magic, like your [Am]heart was
made of matches
[Em]And I never got over [C]it

[Verse 2]
[G]I swear your friends know when to
post your photograph
[Bm]It doesn't really hurt,
but it always takes me back [C]to 16
In your basement and [Am]your parents,
my feelings
[Em]And I never got over [C]it

[Verse 3]
[C]How did [G]you break my [Bm]heart
without even [Em]trying?[C]
[G]How are you on my [Bm]mind? You're
not even talk[Em]ing t[C]o me
[G]You were made of [Bm]matches and
you [Em]burned me to the [C]ground
[G]You were made of [Bm]matches [G]and[Bm] you bur[Em]ned me down

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][Bm][Em][C]
[Em][G][Bm][Em][C][G][Bm][Em]
[C][Em][G][Bm][Em][C][Am][Bm]

[Verse 4]
[G]Everybody says that
you're still living your life
[Bm]One weekend to the next
still tryna' get it right
The [C]truth is I worry you [Am]never found something
[Em]to escape who you used to be[C]

[Verse 5]
[G]I found my own way of coping
with your mess
And [Bm]I found my own reasons why you weren't
the best for me (best for me, [C]best for me)
Why couldn't [Am]you be the best for m[Em]e? (best for me,
best [C]for me)
How did [G]you break my heart

[Verse 6]
[Bm]
without even [Em]trying?[C]
[G]How are you on my [Bm]mind? You're
not even [Em]talking t[C]o me
[G]You were made of [Bm]matches,
and you [Em]burned me to the [C]ground
[G]You were made of matches, [Bm]and you [Em]burned me down

[Verse 7]

you [Bm]burned me [C]down
