Twin Human Highway Flares The Mountain Goats
You turned to me and asked me if I'd always be your boy
[D]As we [A]drove across the ri[Asus2]ver into western Illinois
And on [E]the railroad bridge, half a mile of solid steel
[D]Wheels[A] were spitting out [Asus2]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]To such a worthless [E]day
[E]As we walked across the parking lot towards the motel office
[D]We we[A]re walking with [Asus2]a benediction on us
Light was [E]everywhere, the building stood against the sky
Like a[D] monu[A]ment to [Asus2]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]I hope my heart [E]explodes
