Biography:
Say Hi (formerly Say Hi to Your Mom) is a Seattle, Washington-based indie rock group run by Eric Elbogen. Droning, guitar- and synth-driven ditties should finally earn him a reputation alongside Nada Surf and Clem Snide as one of his borough's more noteworthy indie-rock acts. But really, it's the quirky lyricism that most distinguishes the band.
They have recorded four albums as Say Hi to Your Mom: Discosadness (2002), Numbers & Mumbles (2004), Ferocious Mopes (2005), Impeccable Blahs (2006).

[Intro]
E C#5 G#5 A
F#5 E5 B5
[Verse]
E5
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
E5
And the ebbs of traffic patterns recede
C#5 G#5
And we played our only record front to back
Infinity
A5
When it's dark like this
F#5 E5 B5
All that I can see is the whites of her green eyes
[Chorus]
When she says,
A5 E5 B5
"Oh, tell me, this is all it's gonna be?"
A5 E5 B5
And I say, "Oh, I don't know just how it's gonna be"
A5 E5 B5
And she says, "Oh, tell me, is this all it's gonna be?"
F#5
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
A5
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
E5
[Verse]
E5
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
A
But now you're about as turned on
F#5 E5 B5
As a bottom feeder likes the sun
E5
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
A5
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?"
A5 E5 B5
And I say, "Oh, I don't know just how it's gonna be"
A5 E5 B5
And she says, "Oh, tell me, is this all it's gonna be?"
F#5
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
A5
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
[Solo]
E C#5 G#5 A
F#5 E5 B5
[Chorus]
And she says,
A5 E5 B5
"Oh, tell me, this is all it's gonna be?"
A5 E5 B5
And I say, "Oh, I don't know just how it's gonna be"
A5 E5 B5
And she says, "Oh, tell me, is this all it's gonna be?"
F#5 A5
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
F#5 A5
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
F#5 A5
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
E5
Oh
Fin.
