Artist: Yo La Tengo
Album: Fade (release date: January 15, 2013)
Song: Paddle Forward
All right, I think I pretty much have this down. Most of the song does consist of
chords, except for one interlude riff played here and there.
Tuning: Standard
Here are all the chords used in the song:
|e---3---0---0---2---2---|
|B---3---2---0---2---3---|
|G---0---2---0---2---2---|
|D---0---2---2---4---0---|
|A---2---0---2---4---x---|
|E---3---x---0---2---x---|
Verse 1:
SOS, we ve come unmoored
Rip ride pulling, pulling away from the shore
But we feel safe, inside, not a wave in sight,
Hang on tight, the water s fine
Now the interlude riff is played:
|e--------0---|
|B------------|
|G--2---2-----|
|D------------|
|A------------|
|E------------|
Verse 2:
Lock the boat, we ve come unmoored
Slipped the cleat, lost at sea, back in the centerboard
But we feel safe, for now, as long as time allows,
Hang on tight
Chorus:
Rushes by too fast, never seems to last
Every day, hanging here below the mast
Play around with the interlude riff for the next four bars:
|e---------0---|
|B-------------|
|G---2---2-----|
|D-------------| x4
|A-------------|
|E-------------|
Ship of fools, we ve come unmoored
Rip tide pulling, pulling away from the shore
But we feel safe, inside, not a wave in sight,
Hang on tight, there s still time, the water s fine
Play interlude riff for two bars:
|e---------0---|
|B-------------|
|G---2---2-----|
|D-------------| x2
|A-------------|
|E-------------|
and finish on Em
