[Verse]
 
    D       F           C           G
The selfish they're all standing in line
D            F         C             G
Faithing and hoping to buy themselves time
D      F        C               G
Me, I figure as each breath goes by
  F    G   D/A     (sus4)
I only own my mind
 
    D           F              C           G
The North is to South what the clock is to time 
        D                F                C         G
There's East and there's West and there's everywhere life
  D          F          C              G
I know I was born and I know that I'll die
    F   G      D        F G  D    (sus4)
The in between is mine, I am mine
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                G           Am          D
        And the feeling, it gets left behind
                G         Am          D
        All the innocence lost at one time
            G        Am         D
        significant, behind the eyes
                          Cadd9
        theres no need to hide... 
                     *
        we're safe tonight

[Verse]
 
    D        F          C          G
The ocean is full cause everyone's crying
    D            F           C          G
the full moon is looking for friends at hightide
    D            F               C       G
the sorrow grows bigger when the sorrows denied
  F    G    D        F G  D   (sus4)
I only know my mind, I am mine
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                G           Am          D
        And the meaning, it gets left behind
                G         Am          D
        All the innocence lost at one time
            G        Am         D
        significant, behind the eyes
                          Cadd9
        theres no need to hide... 
                      *
        we're safe tonight

        And the feelings that get left behind
                G         Am          D
        all the innocence broken with lies
            G         Am          D
        significance, between the lines
                        Cadd9
        (we may need to hide)
 
 
                G             Am         D
        And the meanings that get left behind
                G         Am          D
        all the innocents lost at one time
                  G         Am        D
        we're all diffrent behind the eyes
                           Cadd9
        there's no need to hide

 Notice that: This is some kind of simplified tab/chord. There are some subtleties that you
have to polish listening the song, if you want to get a nicer version. You know that its not
easy to tab Pearl Jam songs. Be kind.

instead of a normal F play it like a C but drop the 2nd and 3rd frets down one string (XX321X), this is how eddie plays it on the video, sounds better than the F

+11

Both F's sound good in their, I tend to switch between the two depending where in the song I am. As for the rest, it may be a "bare-bones" tab, but it simple and sounds amazingly good. I prefer tabs like this, where the basic structure of the song is given in an understandable form, and leaves the person reading it room to throw in some stuff of their own choosing. Excellent tab, 5 stars.

Heartily agree with thibeauxc - Give me the basics & I'll expand in my own way with extra hammers/pulls etc. Great tab, have 5 Vedder warbles!
