Put Your 'Pearl Jam' Album Tabs Here

chris01 · May 2006

Since they're not on ths giventowail site yet, thought it might be a good idea to make a thread dedicated to the new tabs.

Ive figured out a few riffs from the album but not whole songs yet. So anyone with tabs/know if the guitars are tuned differently, stick it here.... you know, if you wanna, lol.

Unemployable

Capo 2nd fret.

Chord names relative to Capo but for single notes i'll just write it out.

Starts with... Emin5 (a-string 9th fret, d and g strings 11th fret, see how it works?)...

so .. emin5 ~... C5 G5 G5~

don't know that little riff in between..

verse

low e - 4b5 ~ (this is a slow bend that you need to listen to the record to get the timing of)

g- 4 6 4 2
d- 6 4 2
a- 2~

pre-chorus

sounds like going back and forth between A and G.. like forming A (x0222x) and releasing the D and G strings to shift chords... i'll write it as a pull off..

so...

A ApG A ApG C

there's a little riff in between the C and the repeat that goes like this:

E- 5
A- 2 4 2

Chorus

my timing and chords might not be exactly right but i think it goes roughly like this..

C ---- A

C ---- Emin ----

There might be a 5 on the low E string right before the Emin chord (or something like that)

ends with some sort of F#... F#minor.. D/F#.. not sure... i think it's F# though.

i'm not sure about the soft part at the end

the song is in Gmajor relative to capo (A major)

that's a pretty good start

someone did a more thorough job than i did for the most part.

for a 30 second session trying to get it i came close

this guy's seems more right.

Pearl Jam and toast · May 2006

the chorus is basically C - D - C - A Emin -

on the D there's a little riff someone throws in..

high e - 2 2 2 2-3-2-0

hit the D chord through that part and hit C on the 0

actually if you check Rick's tab he plays open strings under those notes in the verse too, so that's a little off.

and it made it harder anyway.

i've been working on gone... i'll post a complete lead sheet at some point

but basically:

intro/verse: Cmaj7 to Em 3 times and then G to Aadd9... listen for a few voicing variations

prechorus... im thinking something along the lines of Cmaj9 to Asus2 but i'm not there yet on that

chorus: Asus4 A 3 times and then C to D

i've figured out all the right voicings but i don't feel like posting them now so i'll do that later

Rodders · May 2006

The live version of Gone at GTW is pretty accurate and from seeing the AOL sessions and Letterman aftershow it looks accurate too.

Life Wasted is something like this:
Intro & Verse

F# C# C# C# (9th fret power chords)
E B B B (7th fret power chords)
F# C# C# C#
E B B B

Pre-Chorus

F# F# (2nd fret power chords)
then alternate the index finger on and off the 6th string to play:
E F# E F# E F# E F#
but play as if it is the F# power chord each time, and repeat it

Em add B (0224xx)
Em?? (0214xx)

Chorus

Just like intro chords but different ordering

sandoz · May 2006

sorry, you're right, i've look at the letterman video,and yes,
stone plays 4-6-4-2-1

4-2-2

i have some chords to Comatose and World Wide Suicide

World Wide Suicide

Intro --> rake e-bow on a A on the 12th fret

A F# G
C D

Verse
i felt the earth on a monday...
A

in the form of a morning paper....
G

Saw his face in a corner picture....
A

Could not stop staring at me...
G

Pre - chorus -- (its a shame to awake in a world of pain)
A F# G

(the world has taken over)
C D

Chorus -- (The whole world,... world over)
A C G

(Its a World Wide suicide)
C D

and i think the "lookin in the eyes of the fallen" part is just
you ride on an A (A on the 5th barre)

i play all these chords in barre chords except the A in the verse and prechorus and chorus

Pearl Jam and toast · May 2006

WWS and Comatose are up already if you wanna be sure.

and combined with the thread on giventowail which you clearly haven't looked at (i gave you a link!) i've been playing Unemployable for 2 days, perfectly.

stop being so lazy!

pearljam7 · May 2006

now i have seom shorter comatose chords

intro --

D A D
D A E
D A D
D A E

verse -- B E Eflat Bflat

Chorus ( i think its the same as the intro but i might be wrong)

and then bridge (if its illegal..to fall in love..)

just play the root notes

F# G A

E F# G

pearljam7 · May 2006

i just think my chords are easier for a beginner guitarist to play
you can even just play it in open chords if you want and it sounds pretty good
