Our Way To Fall
Yo La Tengo
Tuning: Standard A spectacular song off of And Then Nothing... and definitely one of my faves from YLT. A thing I would say to watch out for is the timing of the chord changes as the timing is different with every verse and Chorus. First off the actual guitar part of the song is a simple one-note riff played throughout the whole song: |e-------------------| |B---1---1---1-1-1---| |G-------------------| |D-------------------| |A-------------------| |E-------------------| Now here are the chords used in the song: * |e---0-----1-----3-----3-----x-----x-----x----| |B---1-----1-----1-----3-----x-----10----12---| |G---2-----2-----2-----0-----5-----9-----12---| |D---3-----3-----3-----0-----5-----7-----10---| |A---3-----3-----x-----2-----3-----x-----x----| |E---x-----1-----x-----3-----x-----x-----x----| Intro: Play guitar riff for one bar then: | | | | | | verse 1: (play guitar riff for first half of the verse then the chords) I remember a summer’s day I remember walking up to you I remember my face turned red And I remember staring at my feet I remember before we met I remember sitting next to you And I remember pretending I wasn’t looking Chorus 1: So we’ll try and try even if it lasts an hour With all our might we’ll try and make it ours ’Cause we’re on our way we’re on our way to fall in love verse 2: (play guitar riff for first half of the verse then the chords) I remember your old guitar I remember I Can’t Explain I remember the way it looked around your neck And I remember the day it broke I remember the song you sang I remember the way you looked tonight And I remember the way it made me feel Chorus 2: We’ll try and try even if it lasts an hour With all our might we’ll try and make it ours ’Cause we’re on our way we’re on our way to fall in love Solo: | | * | | | Chorus 3: You’ll try and try even if it lasts an hour With all our might we’ll try and make it ours ’Cause we’re on our way we’re on our way to fall in love Yeah we’re on our way to fall in love we’re on our way to fall in love OUTRO: (play guitar riff) We’re on our way to fall in love Well that’s it! If you want to replace with regular old (x32010) I think that works fine also. Hope this helps. -George T.
