Pearl Jam – The Golden State (Guitar Tab)

Pearl Jam (Eddie Vedder) & Corin Tucker - The Golden State (John Doe Cover) This is my first tab so bear with me :)After looking at videos of Eddie playing it, Ive that its different to the chords that John Doe uses. This song is very easy - perfect for beginners. - based off this live performance.

Little Intro thing:        e|---------0-------------|
(It might be played        b|---10------10-10-------|
lower on the studio        g|------7------7---------|

version, I'm just          d|--0-----0--------------|      x2
going off the live         a|-----------------------|
   version)                e|-----------------------|

Verse: Simple chords - add little variations. (D chord during verses- take your 1st finger on off G string) The chords might not be in exactly the right place but you get the idea. D B A You are the hole in my head D B A I am the pain in your neck D B A You are the lump in my throat D B A G I am the aching in your heart Pre Chorus: (G) Em We are tangled G We are stolen Cadd9 (*) A We are living where things are hidden (*) - Walkdown bit - dont know the chord name but after playing Cadd9 when it says "things" keep the Cadd9 shape but take your 2nd finger off the A string put your first finger on the A string on the 2nd fret. it looks like this :

(*)
e|--3
b|--3
g|--0
d|--0
a|--2
E|--x

2nd Verse- Same chords used in 1st verse You are the something in my eye I am the shiver down your spine You are the lick of my lips I am on the tip of your tongue 2nd Pre-chorus- same chords used in 1st prechorus We are tangled We are stolen We are buried up to our necks in sand Chorus: D We are luck Em We are fate G A We are the feeling you get in the golden state D We are love Em We are hate G A We are the feeling I get when you walk away Em G A Walk Away (use e string to "walk" up to G 2nd and 3rd fret) Variation - use your little finger on the 5th fret of the B string when playing A - it a nice touch. 3rd verse - same as previous verses You are the dream in my nightmare I am that falling sensation You are my needles and pins I am your hangover morning Pre-chorus- same as other pre-choruses Chorus - same again except extra Walk away at the end - after the first walk away dont A chord after G - go back and play Em, G and then A. like this: ...when you walk away Em G Walk Away Em G A (*2) Walk Awaaaay!

*2- after playing the A go up the 14th fret and play for a few strums:
e|--x
b|--15
g|--14
d|--14
a|--x
e|--x

Verse - same as first verse. End on a D (After playing G of course ;) )
