World Wide Suicide tab by Pearl Jam

Tabs (Ver. 2)

Pearl Jam
World Wide Suicide
(1st single off self-titled 8th studio album {with the avocado})
by Eddie Vedder

This tab is pretty much right except for McCready solo-ing at the end in the last two
it was a hard one to pick but if you figure it out....great! Enjoy!!

drums start with feedback after four bars and then

I felt the earth on a Monday
A augmentedA                   E MajorE
It moved beneath my feet
G+G
In the form of the morning paper
G+G
Laid out for me to see

Saw his face in the corner picture
I recognized the name
Could not stop staring at the
Face I'd never see again

Yeah it's World Wide Suicide !

A augmentedA                   E MajorE
Medals on a wooden mantle
A augmentedA                  E MajorE
Next to a handsome face
G+G
That the President took for granted
G+G
Writing cheques that others pay

And in all the madness
Thoughts become numb and naive
So much to talk about
Yet nothing for us to say

Main riff
It's the same every day
And the wave won't break
Tell you to pray
Laying claim to the take that our soldiers save
Does not equate, and the truth's already out there

Chorus (Main riff)
The whole world!
World over!
Yeah it's world wide suicide!! x2

    BB                            A augmentedA

Repeats over bridge

BB
Looking in the eyes of the fallen
You got to know there's
Another
Another
Another
Another
Another
WAAAAAAAY!

Bass doing riff 1
Guitar doing a fast mute

It's a shame to awake in a world of pain
What does it mean when a war has taken over
It's the same everyday and the wave won't break
Tell you to pray, while the devils on their shoulder

Chorus x4
Riff 2
The whole world
World over
It's World Wide Suiiiiiiiiiiiiiiicide x4

 Hard to hear the rest of the solo underneath the last two chorus'.
Thats the basic idea, improv the rest maybe.
