Intro riff (also used with verses):
Eb5     A#    G#    C#5            (x2)

Eb5        A#           G#             C#5
we hit the highway in the shimmer glare of summer
  Eb5          A#           G#            C#5
  and past the window all the trees flew by behind her
Eb5           A#       G#       C#5
she tuned the radio 'til music was around us
  Eb5       A#           G#             C#5
  a rushing calm around my heart I knew had found us

        G5
        it feels so good to me
          Ab5
          I have to make you see
                                 
                Eb5           Bb5  G5      Ab5
                why does this ever have to end?
                  Eb5       Bb5        G5      Ab5
                  I know commitment is not the trend
                Eb5        Bb5           G5   Ab5
                don't misunderstand what I intend
                  Eb5             Bb5     G5      Ab5
                  when I say this doesn't have to end

we washed the dishes knowing everything was all right
  and there together in the curtain drifting twilight
I know your laughter shouldn't make me feel so scared
  how could I doubt you, I know how much you cared

        I hear it when you sigh
          but I still don't know why

                why does this ever have to end?
                  why can't I give you my heart and hand?
                I think you're too scared to understand
                  this doesn't ever have to end . . . go!

Interlude (x2)  :       F#5 ,    Ab5 ,    Bb5 ,    C#5;
                        F#5 ,    Ab5 ,    Bb5 ,    D#5!!

Main riff (x2: first with just guitar; second time, w/ bass & drums)

I see you standing by a window in the hall
  our eyes collide without a single word at all
the record asks, "will you still need me when I'm 64?"
  I can't imagine that I wouldn't need you more

        too many tears to cry
          I just won't let it die

                this doesn't ever have to end
                  life is so long and my heart won't mend
                you are my lover, you're my best friend 
                  but this doesn't ever have to end

End on D#5.
