Mountain Goats - Twin Human Highway Flares Chords & Tabs

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
