Artist: Yo La Tengo
Album: And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside-Out
Song: Night Falls On Hoboken

The spectacular closer of And Then Nothing..., this song is way too long to tab as 
a whole, so this tab is only going to be concerned with approximately the first 
five minutes of the song (i.e. the part with the vocals).

CHORDS: (from low to high)

G#m: 466444

Intro/verse/main chord progression: G#m G#m A A,
                                    G#m G#m A A,
                                    G#m G#m A A,

Verse 1:

G#m        A                 G#m    A
Frightened face,             lonely dream,
G#m      A                   E
Break my heart with your sad scream

G#m    A                       G#m     A
Sun is down,                   spirits low
G#m       A                    E
Hate my impatience, but here I go

Chorus 1:

G#m                      A           G#m                   A
Come on, let's leave our misery, and crawl toward where we wanna be,
         G#m      A          G#m      A 
Can't we try?       Can't we try?
G#m                      A               G#m                    A
Come on, sleep one night peacefully, and I'll yawn all the more easily
            E
And rest my mind

Verse 2:

Weary guise, mine the same
Why so worried? You can't explain

Chorus 2 (almost the same, except keep playing the A chord at the end):

Come on, let's leave our misery, and crawl toward where we wanna be,
Can't we try? Can't we try?                                
Come on, sleep one night peacefully, and I'll yawn all the more easily

Play the main chord progression one more time, and you're done! Hope this has been helpful!
