Yo La Tengo - What's In My Bag? chords
Start Jamming...
[E]
[Gb]
[B]
[E] [Db]
[A]
[Gb] [E] Started out with a high ticket item.
[B] [E]
[B] I'm glad you've got that, but I'm not fond of [E] the reissue that comes out [A] without [E] the
[A] bonus material.
You buy it, [Gb] and then they go, oh, what do you know?
We just [Bm] found all this other stuff, too.
Dirty rotten trick.
[E] That was the move for me.
[A]
Jerks.
[D] I [Gbm] bought this record that I thought [Dbm] I had.
Found out, and in fact, [Gm] I'm not convinced we don't have it.
[Bb] TNH Fan Club's Bandwagon S.
[Ebm] Metal baby, yeah.
[Bb] I'm metal baby.
Great record.
Pals of ours.
[Ebm] We toured with them.
[Gm] [C] We went looking for this record at home recently.
[Bb] Couldn't find it.
I'm not convinced it's not in there somewhere, but it was just easier to buy it again.
[E] [Gb] Dragon's Head, [G] latest record [Db] by Mary [D] Halverson.
[E] [Db]
Just sort [D] of somewhere between
[E] jazz and [Fm] out, confusing, [G] but really kind of beautiful [D] music
that she makes.
I'm [G] looking forward to hearing this as soon as I get out [B] of here.
I bought this [Db] for [A] two reasons.
One, because it's [Ab] a great cover, and also [G] because there's two [C] words in compilation [Cm] records
that are [C] kind of like go-to words, and one is psychedelic [Dm] and the other is boogaloo.
[Abm] So this one's not [D] psychedelic, but it [A] is boogaloo [Dm] powwow.
[Dm] [Gb]
[A] Honestly, I have no [D] idea what it is, because even with my failing [C] eyesight, I can't even
read the subtitle.
[Dm] Dance floor
something or [E] other.
Rendezvous.
[D]
Rendezvous, what could go wrong with that?
Yeah, there you go.
But if it's half as good [Dm] as that cover
I've heard this CD in the back room [E] some time ago.
You won't be disappointed.
I [C] didn't think so.
[Bbm] [D] The Day of the Soul, [F] Stakes as High, 12-inch.
Probably my favorite song of theirs.
The [Gb] [Ab] idea [F] of [Gm] having [Fm] an instrumental version and [Gm] an acapella version to do whatever I want
[G] with is [F] kind of hard to resist.
I did not know [C] this record existed.
[F] [C] Rebels?
[Fm] [Bbm]
I've often [Fm] spent a lot of time wondering where the Rebels [C] are from.
Turns out to [Db] be Iran.
Didn't you [Fm] buy that record in the early days?
You bought that single in Italy, right?
Or [Bb] was it that we thought they were Italian?
[Cm] Were they singing in Italian?
No, [C] they sing in sort of modified [Fm] English.
[Fm]
Careful viewers of our recorded output might recognize this photo from the inner [Bbm] sleeve of
I Can Hear the Heart Beating is One, in which we used it not [C] once but twice in [Bbm] a fake Matador catalog.
[C] They were the electric tie rack and [Bb] they might have been the quadsmen.
I think they were.
Finally had to pick [Ab] up the Master Ace [Gb] single, Me and the Biz.
[Bm] [Gb]
I never had an actual physical copy of this record.
It's a great conversation piece, I think.
Good piece of history.
Master Ace, Incorporated.
I wonder where that thing is now.
It's probably Master Ace's house.
I'd hope.
The centerpiece of any [F] living room.
Rock and Roll [E] Hall of Fame.
[B] I too am on my last record.
You Baby by the Turtles.
[E] [Gb] [B] [E] Never owned this record.
[Ebm] We've now [C] gotten to know Howard [F] Kalin from the Turtles in recent years.
They just have a sentimental [C] attachment to beyond their great music.
[Bb] So thought maybe it's time [Db]
to
We've actually played You Baby with Howard singing it.
[Eb] Wow.
Which is a pretty
[G] great feeling.
[F] [D]
[G] [F] [D]
[G] I've spent my [F] life trying to understand [G]
just how my life led to where [D] I am.
