Standard tuning
E
You turned to me and asked me if I'd always be your boy
D A Asus2
As we drove across the river into western Illinois
E
And on the railroad bridge, half a mile of solid steel
D A Asus2
Wheels were spitting out sparks, scraping at the rails
F#
Wind in your hair, alright
A
Sunset spilling through the rear window
E
Your white t-shirt hugging your shoulders
B
Beaded with sweat
E
On the day that I become so forgetful
A
That all of this melts away
B
I will burn all the calendars that counted the years down
A E
To such a worthless day

E
As we walked across the parking lot towards the motel office
D A Asus2
We were walking with a benediction on us
E
Light was everywhere, the building stood against the sky
D A Asus2
Like a monument to desperation, two floors high
F#
A mile and a half from the river
A
We went back to the car to get our overnight bags
E
Sunset spilling through your earrings
B
All over your body
E
When we shut the motel room door behind us
A
We knew we'd hit the motherlode
B
On the day that I forget you
A E
I hope my heart explodes
