Written by Yo La Tengo

	  		
Tuning: Open D (DADF#Ad) 

Essentially, this whole song is composed of the following progression: 

|d---0-0---0-0-0-0-0-0---0-0---0-0-0-0-0-0---| 
|A---0-0---0-0-0-0-0-0---0-0---0-0-0-0-0-0---| 
|F#--0-0---0-0-0-0-1-0---0-0---0-0-0-0-1-0---| 
|D---0-0---0-0-0-0-0-0---0-0---0-0-0-0-0-0---| 
|A---0-0---0-0-0-0-2-0---0-0---0-0-0-0-2-0---| 
|D---0-0---0-0-0-0-0-0---0-0---0-0-0-0-0-0---| 

And, well, that's it! The only other thing I could mention is that if you want to start  
the song off more quietly, you can play the following melody (I've seen YLT play this in  
some of their acoustic shows): 

|d------------------------------| 
|A------------------------------| 
|F#-----------------------------| 
|D------------------------------| 
|A---5-5--0-2-0---5-5---0-2-0---| 
|D------------------------------| 

Other than that, there's the solo, but, as usual, it's pretty hectic, so submit it if  
you think you might have it! 

Sometimes the bad guys come out on top, 
Sometimes the good guys lose 
We try not to lose our hearts, not to lose our minds 

Sometimes the bad days retain their grip, 
Sometimes the good days fade 
Hurts the brain to think, hurts the head to drink 

But nothing ever stays the same, 
Nothing's explained 
The higher we go, the longer we fly 
'Cause this is it for all we know, 
So say good night to me 
And lose no more time, no time 
Resisting the flow 

I heard you calling from far away, 
I thought I heard you cry 
Hadn't the voice to make it right, so I just cried 

I felt you slipping, slipping away, 
Before I could even see 
Try once more, lost my grip, you were gone 

But nothing ever stays the same, 
Nothing's explained 
The longer it takes, the looser the ties 
'Cause this is it, for all we know, 
So say good night to me 
And lose no more time, no time 
Resisting the flow 

(solo) 

But nothing ever stays the same, 
Nothing's explained 
The stronger we wake, the faster we run 
'Cause this is it, for all we know, 
So say good night to me 
And lose no more time, no time 
Resisting the flow
