Pearl Jam - Betterman

By Joel Buckley


Note-- Normal Tuning
       I made this by listening to the Vitalogy CD and LIVe on 2 LEGS CD.
       Strumming is not exact, and nor is the timing with the lyrics so strum and time
       however you shall. Improvise any parts.I know this tab is far from perfect,
       but use it as an outline. Email me if you would like some tab for other pearl jam
       songs or some other bands that I might know.

         G
         ....then G, but pause a couple times after you strum like in the song.
               (2:45 into it)

OUTRO
 Same chords, but improvise, maybe go an octave (12 frets) higher and pick certain strings
 Then hold a D and slide down to about the 15th fret and pick the 1st and 2nd string.
