Pearl Jam - Pearl Jam (2006)
Timing and rythm in this song is everything! Listen carefully to the song to get them right. This tab is for
Mike's part, Stone plays it with a capo on the 4th fret. There are two types of F#5 used in the song, make
sure you use the right one in different parts of the song. ENJOY!

E I seen the Emaj7home inside your head
E Emaj7 (Riff 1)
All locked doors and unmade beds
E Open Emaj7sores unattended
ELet me Emaj7say just once that

F#5 C#5I'm never going B5back again
F#5 C#5I escaped it, F#5 C#5 a life wasted
F#5 C#5I'm never going B5back again
F#5 C#5Having tasted, F#5 C#5a life wasted
F#5 C#5I'm never going B5back again

[Interlude 2]
E The world Emaj7awaits just up the stairs

Leave the pain for someone else
E Nothing Emaj7back there for you to find
EOr was it Emaj7you, you left behind?

[Verse 2]
F#5 C#5You're always saying you're toE5o weak toB5 be strong
F#5 C#5You're harder on yourself than E5just abB5out anyone
F#5 C#5Why swim the channel just to E5get thiB5s far?
F#5 C#5Halfway there, why wouldE5 you tB5urn around?
A Darkness coEmes in waves, tell mAe why invite itE to stay?
You're wAarm with negativity
Yes, Ecomfort is an Aenergy
But why Elet the sad song play?
[Chorus]
F#5 C#5I have faced itF#5, C#5a life wasted
F#5 C#5I'm never going B5back again
F#5 C#5I escaped it, F#5 C#5 a life wasted
F#5 C#5I'm never going B5back again
F#5 C#5Having tasted, F#5 C#5a life wasted
F#5 C#5I'm never going B5back again
F#5 C#5Oh I erased it,F#5 C#5a life wasted
F#5 C#5I'm never going B5back again
