Alive by Pearl Jam >From the album Ten By Stone Gossard (c)1991 Sony Music Entertainment Transcribed by Alastair Harden This was inspired by the excellent transcription by Evan Cowan, in that I went to play it from his tab and was faced with a 16 page (no joke) transcription of every note in the song... I thought I would condense it and ended up wholly re-transcribing it in a busker-friendly fashion. I laboriously typed out the lyrics then part, but check Evan's tab for this. It sounds like it's played on an electro-acoustic 12-string, but that's just a guess. Chords:These are as I play them and EADGBe not necessarily the way they A-577655--for verses+break are played on the CD Asus4-577755 F-x33211 C-x32010 Csus2-x32030 E-022100 G-320033 E A D G B e D-xx0232 B/F#-x 9 9 11 12 x A-x02220--for the chorus B/D#-11 9 9 11 12 x B-799877 F#/C#-9 9 11 11 11 x Bsus4-799977 -- Intro: (after lead) A Asus4 x6 F C -- Verse 1: A Asus4 A Asus4 Son, she said have... story for you A Asus4 A Asus4 What you thought... daddy was...
