Got Some Chords

(ver. 1)
Pearl Jam

Pearl Jam, from the album Backspacer.


Another simple, (though not altogether easy) tune from the Daddys of Grunge! 

I play everything as bar chords to get the right sound, the F should be played up 
on the 8th fret rather than down on the 1st. Where I have put a chord in brackets 
it's because the guitar doesn't actually play it, it's either just the bass or it's 
not played at all... Listen carefully to the rhythm, you can do quite a lot to vary 
the song with different strumming patterns, for example I mute most of the first verse, 
just playing the first two soundings of each chord...

Comments and corrections welcome.
