Matt Costa (* 16. Juni 1982 in Huntington Beach, Kalifornien, USA)  Matt Costa wurde in Huntington Beach geboren und wuchs in Cypress/Kalifornien auf. Er bekam bereits mit 12 Jahren seine erste Gitarre, doch sein Interesse am Skateboardfahren stieg und seine Gitarre geriet immer mehr in Vergessenheit. Schon recht früh bekam er einen Profivertrag als Skater. Doch nach 7 Jahren erfolgreichem Skaten wurde bei einem heftigen Unfall sein Bein zertrümmert. In den 18 Monaten Genesung mit Gipsverband und Krankengymnastik widmete Costa sich seiner neuen-alten Liebe: der Gitarre.

Costa nació en Huntington Beach (California), en una familia descendiente de emigrantes portugueses. La pasión por la música le llegó cuando debido a una lesión que se produjo en el 2003 practicando skateboard estuvo 18 meses en rehabilitación y la gran cantidad de tiempo que tenía que estar inmóvil la empleaba en componer y grabar canciones con la única ayuda de su guitarra y un radiocassette casero.

Oh Mr. Pit--oh Mr. Pit--

Mr. Pitiful, who let you down?
			      G
Who let you down, who let you down?
C
You still don't believe, you don't believe
                            F       Am
You don't believe, and your grievances show
                      G 
When your soap box unfolds


C		 Am
But please, come down
F	  G                  C
From that cloud your sitting on
   Am    F             G
I don't expect you to admit that you were wrong
			   Am	F
Just wanna know how you've been
          C          G		    Am
And don't make me feel bad that we're still friends
F             C      G
Mulling it over in my bed
  Am        F             C           G 
I hope that you see through your picket
  Am        F       C           G                        Am   G
I hope that you see through your big yard and white picket fence
 F#m F (3-2-1) Am
To make amends
F#m F (3-2-1) Am
And still be friends
F#m F (3-2-1) Am    G
Still be my friend

So where....
Where....
While....

Well....
I....
And....

G Bm C D <-(Note - the length of each chord in the first) 
Your surprises wear disguises (verse is half that of the rest of the lines)
G Bm C D
All of your truths masquerade around on Hallow's Eve


 G Am Bm C
So I'll never know what you show to unfamiliar faces


G Bm C D
So impressed by you undressing
G Bm C
Did you take his hand aside from love?

The truth would break me in two

I'll never know what you show to unfamiliar faces

This is the voice that's scared to hear those names

I'll take it kindly if you'd blind me

Holding inside the thoughts I have inquisitively wondering

Unfamiliar Faces

A
Burnt trees on a snowy pass
                   G
All my friends are far behind
               D
I'm stuck with you tonight
                  A
But I'd be better alone

A
So come on wheels take me far away 
                   G
Where I don't have debts to pay
                 D
I can't count on yesterday 
                A
To find the way home


                          E
I know it happens all the time
Bm                     D
But they don't have my back
Bm                   D        E
So I'm never looking back


A
Plumes of smoke rise high above
                       G
Burned bridges lost in luck
             D
I guess it's all because
                     A
They're found on the fault

A
On sandy ground
            G
Foundations can't be found
            D
And all the stones of change 
                  A
Were thrown in my face


A                         E
I know it happens all the time
Bm                          D
I heard them talk behind my back
Bm                   D      E
So I'm never looking back

A - G - D - A (2x)

A                         E
I know it happens all the time

I heard them talk behind my back

y así tus velas elevar

[Coro 2]
Am        F            C
  Yo sólo sé decir de nada, 
        E7                  Am
por las islas que traje del mar
              F                  C
No ruegues jamás, nunca más, de nada
         E7                     Am
¡Ha! Genial es mi manera de servir, 
    F
de nada, 
    C
de nada

[Parte Rap]
C
De nada dudes ya
Hey, honestamente te explicaré 
de natural modo cada fenómeno
El mar, el sol, el gas, 
oh, ese es Maui hablando de más
Anguilas que, yo las enterré, 
de la palmera los cocos creé
Un consejo, una lección te doy
No me molestes si en mi descanso estoy
Am
  El tapiz que en mi piel se ve, 
F
  es el mapa de lo que gané
C
  Por donde fui provoqué mil sucesos
E7
  Ve al pequeñín mini Maui nomás zapateando,
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ¡Hey!

[Coro 3]
Am          F              C
  Yo sólo puedo decir, de nada (de nada)
           E7              Am
Por el mundo especial que doy
                 F           C
No hay de que agradecer, de nada (de nada)
    E7                     Am
De nada hablaré, que ya me voy
          F            C
Te toca a ti decir de nada (de nada)
       E7             Am
Pues quiero esa barca ya
             F          C
Muy lejos navegaré, de nada (de nada)
       E7               Am
Pues Maui nada sabe de nadar
              F                 C  F C
(De nada) De nada (De nada) de nada
         C
Y gracias

G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.

Arrows Of Eros

Am
There's a sadness all around us
          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
F              Am                 G   C
Oh, baby, come with me out of the darkness
