Lowlight by Pearl Jam

Transcribed by Pat Giles ([email protected])

Standard tuning - low to high - EADGBE

Note: the chords in parentheses (C B Em) are the notes played by the
piano and bass. If you're playing on one guitar only, though,
do this, putting emphasis on the notes with the beside them (the

bass notes):

[G] [(C] [B] [Em)]

E:-3---------3---3---3--------
B:-3---------3---3---3--------
G:-0---------0---0---0--------
D:-0---------2---0---0--------
A:-2---------3--2--0--------
E:-3-----------------0-------

Chords:

G: (320033)
C: (X32033)
B: (X20033)
Em:(022000) (during C-B-Em patterns, play it like this): 000033
D: (X00232)
A: (X02233) (I know this isn't a real A; I'm not sure what it's called)

Bridge: okay, I know this is mostly a piano solo, but I'm gonna tab
out a rough version of it for guitar. Note the chords on top;
that's what guitar 1 would play; guitar 2 would play the
'solo' (again, the chords in parentheses are played with
emphasis on the bass notes)
