Tuning: G C E A

DID I TELL YOU by Yo La Tengo Written by Ira Kaplan >From the albums "New Wave Hot Dogs" and "Fakebook" Transcribed by John Walston(jwalston@mail.trincoll.edu) This is just a rough sketch, but it should allow you to approximate both versions of this song. Intro: G (4x) Verse:

^G Did I tel^Aml you, abou^C(2x)t the dark lonely road ^G I was counting my steps a^Ams I made my way ho^Cme ^D ^G Days are nothing but time on yo^Amur hands, weighing on me ^C(2x) ^D came to my e^Amnd ^C ^D unde^Amcided ^C ^DWhether to count ^Amwhat I felt agains^Ct what I could say.^D(2x). I try not to wander,^G or^D to tell ^Cyou that ^D ^GI'm not willing^D to wait when^C deep in my H^Deart I'm ^Gwilling ^D C D G D C ^DHearts stil^G(4x)l willing, my brain's impatient my hearts still willing to wait

Verse 2: Our love is, so important to me, starts wherever you land walks right over to me. Days are nothing but time inbetween, obviously. so unwary, or uncaring, I try not to be part of that and that's easy to say but but I try not to wander... (Guitar solo) For the final verse, skip right to the pre-chorus part Verse 3: There's a moment, to discover, no one can take all the blame and it's finally clear I try not to wander... That should get you started.
