[Verse]
E5Remarkable as it seems
Turns out the C#5night was much shorter
Than you G#5wanted to believe
And we're A5only in Dakota dots oF#5n maps
En route to bigger cE5itiesB5  
E5And the ebbs of traffic patterns recede
And we C#5played our only record front to G#5back
Infinity
When it's A5dark like this
All that F#5I can see is the E5whites of her B5green eyes
[Chorus]
When she says,
"A5Oh, tell me, this is E5all it's gonna B5be?"
And I say, "A5Oh, I don't know just E5how it's gonna B5be"
And she says, "A5Oh, tell me, is this E5all it's gonna B5be?"
There's a F#5trigger somewhere, let's pull it
There's a A5trigger somewhere, let's pull it
E5
[Verse]
E5Thinking back to all the days when we were kids
Playing gaC#5mes and dropping hints
And getting G#5wide-eyed at a glimpse
But Anow you're about as turned on
As a F#5bottom feeder likes the E5sunB5  
E5And the twist is finally gone off with the rest
Like some C#5long extinct big creature
That we've G#5never seen in flesh
And you A5suppose that every reigning champ
F#5Eventually meets his bettE5erB5  
[Chorus]
And she says,

And I say, "OA5h, I don't know just hE5ow it's gonna bB5e"

[Verse]

Remarkable as it seems

C#5

Turns out the night was much shorter

G#5

Than you wanted to believe

A5 F#5

And we're only in Dakota dots on maps

E5 B5

En route to bigger cities

And the ebbs of traffic patterns recede

C#5 G#5

And we played our only record front to back

Infinity

When it's dark like this

F#5 E5 B5

All that I can see is the whites of her green eyes

[Chorus]

And she says, "Oh, tell me, is this all it's gonna be?"

F#5

There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it

[Verse]

Thinking back to all the days when we were kids

C#5

Playing games and dropping hints

G#5

And getting wide-eyed at a glimpse

But now you're about as turned on

F#5 E5 B5

As a bottom feeder likes the sun

And the twist is finally gone off with the rest

C#5

Like some long extinct big creature

G#5

That we've never seen in flesh

And you suppose that every reigning champ

F#5 E5 B5

Eventually meets his better

[Chorus]

And she says,

A5 E5 B5

"Oh, tell me, this is all it's gonna be?"
