"Matches" is a song recorded by American country music artist Sammy Kershaw.
It was released in March 1998 as the second single from the album Labor of Love.
The song reached #22 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart.
The song is about a man who meets a woman at a bar, where he offers to light her cigarette with a book of matches.
The video retells the song's story, using a lounge in downtown Nashville, Tennessee, to represent the bar's interior, and another bar in Hartsville, Tennessee, to represent the exterior.
