Matchbox Twenty (auparavant Matchbox 20) est un groupe de rock américain originaire d'Orlando en Floride  et qui a vendu plus de 39 millions d'albums dans le monde. Les membres actuels sont Rob Thomas (chant, piano), Kyle Cook (guitare), Paul Doucette (batterie) et Brian Yale (basse); Adam Gaynor (guitare rythmique) ayant quitté le groupe en 2005. Thomas, Yale et Doucette jouaient dans un groupe local Tabitha's secret.

El productor Matt Serletic, recién habiendo terminado de ayudar en convertir a &quot;Shine&quot; de Collective Soul en una pieza imprescindible para MTV, conoció un tipo llamado Rob Thomas, un escritor habilidoso de Orlando que estaba buscando un lugar. Serletic y Thomas probaron músicos en busca de un par de personas que podían apoyar la obvia habilidad de Thomas de escribir buena música de pop. Thomas, nacido en Alemania como hijo de militares, ya había tocado con el baterista Paul Doucette y el bajista Brain Yale en varias bandas locales.

VERSE ONE:

C                                            G
I'm waking up at the start of the end of the world,
                                                Am
But its feeling just like every other morning before,
                                                   F
Now I wonder what my life is going to mean if it's gone,

C                                                  G
The cars are moving like a half a mile an hour and I
                                                    Am
Started staring at the passengers who're waving goodbye
                                              F
Can you tell me what was ever really special about me all this time?


CHORUS:
Am                                        F

VERSE TWO:

C                                                G
I think it turned ten o'clock but I don't really know
                                            Am
Then I can't remember caring for an hour or so
                                     F
Started crying and I couldn't stop myself

I started running but there's no where to run to

C                                             G
I sat down on the street and took a look at myself
                                                          Am

Say your goodbyes if you got someone you can
F
Say goodbye to

Repeat CHORUS

BRIDGE:

Am
Gone, gone baby, it's all gone
There's no one in the corner
And there's nobody home
Well it was cool, cool
It was just all cool
Now it's over for me
And it's over for you
G

Bass and drums vamp, with a little lead guitar and piano that are low in the mix. The 
guitar interjects occasionally with some staccato strums of the Am and possibly a C/Am. 
it builds up to the stop, the last chord is a G.

LAST CHORUS:

Am                                        F
But I believe the world is burning to the ground

Oh well I guess we're gonna find out

Let's see how far we've come
G
Let's see how far we've come

Am                                       F
Well I, believe, it all, is coming to an end
F
Oh well, I guess, we're gonna pretend,

C
Let's see how far we've come
G
Let's see how far we've come

How Far We've Come

D   E      A          F#m
All day staring at the ceiling
       D            E            F#m
Making friends with shadows on my wall
D   E      A          F#m       
All night hearing voices telling me
     D
That I should get some sleep
E
Because tomorrow might be good for something


C#m  D
Hold on
A                E           C#m   D
Feeling like I'm headed for a breakdown
A                E
And I don't know why

# Chorus

A                                    D
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
           D
I know right now you can't tell
F#m                                   E
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see

A different side of me
A                                D
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
             D
I know right now you don't care
F#m                                   E
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
                  D    E
And how I used to be...me


    A            F#m        
I'm talking to myself in public
D      E             F#m
Dodging glances on the train
D     E                   A                F#m
And I know, I know they've all been talking about me
D
I can hear them whisper
       E                                     C#m         D
And it makes me think there must be something wrong with me
A              E
Out of all the hours thinking
C#m   D  A           E
Somehow I've lost my mind

# Chorus


A                                    D
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
           D
I know right now you can't tell
F#m                                   E
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see

A different side of me
A                                D
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
             D
I know right now you don't care
F#m                                   E
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
                  D    
And how I used to be
                  


F#m                     D
I've been talking in my sleep
F#m                         D  
Pretty soon they'll come to get me
F#m                     E
Yeah, they're taking me away

# Chorus

A                                    D
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
           D
I know right now you can't tell
F#m                                   E
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see

A different side of me

I know right now you don't care
F#m                                   E
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
                  D    
And how I used to be


A                  D
Yeah, how I used to be
F#m           E 
How I used to be
A                      D
Well, I'm just a little unwell
F#m            E
How I used to be
How I used to be
I'm just a little unwell

C                                             G         F

C                                                  G           F
And all her clothes are on the floor, and all your records are scratched
C                                    G               F
Shes like a one-way ticket cause you can't come back

But she's so mean

(You'll never let her go, why dont you let her go?)

Verse
C                          G              F
You kn-kn-know that if you dont shut your mouth
             C        G  F
She'll freak out
C                        G
You better get your shit together
          F             C
Cause shes bringing you down, now
               G           F

Prechorus 2

                            G        F    C       G     F

Shes a hardcore, candy-store, give-me-some-more girl,     girl
C                                       G                F
Shes got a wicked sense of humor, can't believe what she says
C                                         G           F
She drinks Bacardi in the morning till it goes to her head
C                                             G            F
And all you want is just to hold her, but she don't go for that
C                                   G         F
She has a hard time coming when she cant hit back

(You'll never let her go, why dont you let her go?)

Bridge
Am                                                 C
Every now and then she makes you just a little bit crazy
Am                                                               F

Encuentras la grandeza frente a ti

Y no sabes bien qué sentir
       F            A#                      C
Es adorable, que jamás los humanitos cambiarán

Despierta ya, oye bien,

Am         F           C
  Yo solo sé decir de nada

Hey, honestamente te explicaré 
de natural modo cada fenómeno
El mar, el sol, el gas,

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

  Por donde fui provoqué mil sucesos

1) Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah       River.
2) miner's lady,         stranger to blue water.

 	I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me,
            C        G              D 
        the radio reminds her of my home far away

        that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.

Country Roads

Am      C              F              C
I had a dream, we were sipping whisky neat
        F              C                 G
Highest floor, the Bowery, and nowhere’s high enough
    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye

You were staying out all night and I had enough


      F           Am             F                    C

Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories

School Friends

Verse 1:
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
