Just an hour ago I didn?t know her name
G7 C
A couple of drinks and we naturally struck up a flame
F C
It wasn?t love but then it was plain to see
G7 C
That we were two strangers that were matched perfectly
F C
I signed on the line for room 109 at the desk
G7 C
I told the man that all we needed was rest
F C
He said to me as he slipped a key in my hand
G7 C
That?s quite alright Mr. Smith I understand
F
Motel matches that burn in the night
C F
Motel matches are so easy to light
C F G7
Just a spark of desire and the fire always catches
C F
Motel matches we?re two of a kind
C F
We know tomorrow they?ll wake up and find
C F G7
We?ll be gone with the dawn and they?ll come to sweep out the ashes
C
Of motel matches
F C
I close the door and she headed for the car
G7 C
Warm tangled sheets were all that left of our fire
F C
I said with a grin to do this again would be nice
G7 C
But we both knew that a match can never burn twice
