I Feel Like Going Home Yo La Tengo
Song: I Feel Like Going Home
Tuning: Standard
One of the quieter songs off of I Am Not Afraid of You..., this song is played in a
combination of notes and chords.
Intro (the first bar):
[G]
|e-----3-3-3-------| |B-----3-3-3-------| |G-----0-0-0-------| |D---0-0-0-0-0-0---| |A-----2-2-2-------| |E-----3-3-3-------|
Main rhythm of the song:
[G] [G] [G] [G]
|e---3-3-3-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-------| |B---3-3-3-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-------| |G---0-0-0-----0-0-0-----0-0-0-----0-0-0-------| (Same pattern until |D---0-0-0-0-2-0-0-0-2-0-0-0-0-0-2-0-0-0-2-0---| "chorus") |A---2-2-2-----2-2-2-----2-2-2-----2-2-2-------| |E---3-3-3-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-------|
Calls me to the ocean, takes me wandering through the street,
Restless imagination...
"Chorus":
[D] [G] [G]
|e-------2-2-2-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-------| |B-------3-3-3-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-------| |G-----2-2-2-2-2---0-0-0-----0-0-0-------| (Continue playing main rhythm) |D---0---0-0-0---0-0-0-0-0-2-0-0-0-2-0---| |A-------x-x-x-----2-2-2-----2-2-2-------| |E-------x-x-x-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-------|
But for now, I want my feet on the ground,
'Cause I feel like going home
I can float above the ceiling, I like drifting through the air,
Tend to lose my concentration...
But right now, the clouds don't appeal too much
I feel like going home
Bridge:
Sometimes [D]late at night, while running [D]from the rain,
Running [G]from the voices filling [G]up my brain
How I [C]wish they'd leave me alone[G]
And let me [D]be to go off on my [G]own,
Let me [C]be to go [G]home,
[G]I feel like going home
The outro is a little weird; it's basically a repetition of the same melody on the
guitar. Here's my best shot at tabbing this melody:
|e-------------------------| |B---3-3---3-5---3---5-3---| |G---4-3---4-5---4---5-4---| |D-------------------------| |A-------------------------| |E-------------------------|
Thanks! Hope this tab helped.
