Em / D2 /  - X4

Em   / D2  /
Vacate is the word
Em       / D2    /
Vengeance has no place he swears to her
Em    /  D2   / Em   / D2 /
Cannot find the comfort in this world
Em    / D2   /
Artificial tears
Em     / D2        /
Vessel stabbed next up volunteers
Em      / D2      / Em / D2 /
Vulnerable, wisdom can't adhere

C    / Em  /
A truant finds home
C    / Em /
A wish to hold on
   C     / Em  / A  / Asus / A /
But there's a trapdoor in the sun
A   /  B--3-2-0-0-2-
Immortality

Em / D2 /  - X4

(same chords as first verse)
As privileged as a whore
Victims in demand for public show
Swept out through the cracks beneath the door
Holier than thou, how
Surrendered, executed anyhow
Scrawl dissolved, cigar box on the floor

A truant finds home
And a wish to hold on
Saw a trapdoor in the sun

Em / D2 / - X8

A   /
Immortality

Em / D2 / - X2

Em      / D2  /
Cannot stop the thought
Em    / D2  /
Running in the dark
Em        / D2         /
Coming up a which way sign
Em       / D2   /
All good truants must decide

C        / Em  /
Stripped and sold, mom
C   / Em /
Auctioned forearm
C        / A  /
And whiskers in the sink

C  / Em /
Truants move on
C       / Em /
Cannot stay long
C       / A  / 
Some die just to live

A / (keep playing and gradually fade out)

IMMORALITY
-----------

by: pearl jam!

Hello. This is my first stab at transcibing music, but since i use the nevada
Ftp site a lot, i feel i should do my part. After a few other transcitpions,
i think mine so far is the best one of Immorailty,  here goes:-)

Firslty, here is a little advice. Just hold a C7* chord. Then take off your
First finger, and bring down your Third finger to the Second string(third
fret!!). That is the chord you should hold for the intro!!
*(see the end of this file for the fingering:)


(Timing is Off, Just Improvise:)

E--------------------0-------------------------------------
F-------------------------0--------------------------------
D---------------4---------------0--------------------------
B-----------2----------------------------------------------
G------3---------------------------------------------------E------------------
--------------------0-------------------

repeat 4x's    

:that was just the intro:-)

now, when that is over, here is the fun part. Firstly get an Em chord, then
hit like the 6th string then come heavy on the chord. Then this chord is
funny, but try and do the same thing.

E----------0-----------------------------------------------
F----------3-----------------------------------------------
D----------2-----------------------------------------------
B----------0-----------------------------------------------
G----------0-----------------------------------------------
E----------2-----------------------------------------------


hold these frets, and you'll have a weird chord. Do the Same thing where you
hit the 6th string, and then come down heavy on the chord.  then Chrous time,
just play a C Chord 6x's going quickly, then an Em. Do the same thing again.
Then do It, but after the Em play a quick A. that's all for now:-(
