Intro:
E MajorE    C#5C#5    G#5G#5    A augmentedA
F#5F#5    E5E5    B5B5

Verse:
E5E5
Remarkable as it seems
       C#5C#5
Turns out the night was much shorter
     G#5G#5
Than you wanted to believe
     A5A5          F#5F#5
And we're only in Dakota dots on maps
          E5E5   B5B5
En route to bigger cities
E5E5
And the ebbs of traffic patterns recede
    C#5C#5               G#5G#5
And we played our only record front to back

Infinity
     A5A5
When it's dark like this
     F#5F#5       E5E5      B5B5
All that I can see is the whites of her green eyes

Chorus:

When she says,

 A5A5          E5E5       B5B5
"Oh, tell me, this is all it's gonna be?"
      A5A5          E5E5       B5B5
And I say, "Oh, I don't know just how it's gonna be"
        A5A5          E5E5       B5B5
And she says, "Oh, tell me, is this all it's gonna be?"
     F#5F#5
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
     A5A5
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it

E5E5

Verse:
E5E5
Thinking back to all the days when we were kids
     C#5C#5
Playing games and dropping hints
      G#5G#5
And getting wide-eyed at a glimpse
  A augmentedA
But now you're about as turned on
  F#5F#5           E5E5   B5B5
As a bottom feeder likes the sun

E5E5
And the twist is finally gone off with the rest
     C#5C#5
Like some long extinct big creature
      G#5G#5
That we've never seen in flesh
    A5A5
And you suppose that every reigning champ
F#5F#5           E5E5     B5B5
Eventually meets his better

Chorus:

And she says,
 A5A5           E5E5       B5B5
"Oh, tell me, this is all it's gonna be?"
       A5A5          E5E5       B5B5
And I say, "Oh, I don't know just how it's gonna be"
        A5A5          E5E5       B5B5
And she says, "Oh, tell me, is this all it's gonna be?"
     F#5F#5
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
     A5A5
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it

Solo:
E MajorE    C#5C#5    G#5G#5    A augmentedA
F#5F#5    E5E5    B5B5

Chorus:

And she says,
 A5A5           E5E5       B5B5
"Oh, tell me, this is all it's gonna be?"
      A5A5          E5E5       B5B5
And I say, "Oh, I don't know just how it's gonna be"
        A5A5          E5E5       B5B5
And she says, "Oh, tell me, is this all it's gonna be?"
     F#5F#5                  A5A5
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
     F#5F#5                  A5A5
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
     F#5F#5                  A5A5
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
E5E5
Oh

Fin.
