Pearl Jam – Immortality [Album: Vitalogy (1994)]
[Intro:] [Cadd9 (x4); Em D/F# (x4)]
Em D/F#
Vacate is the word…
vengeance has no place on me or her
Cannot find the comfort in this world
Artificial tear…
vessel stabbed, next up, volunteers
Vulnerable, wisdom can’t adhere…
C Em, C Em
A truant finds home… and a wish to hold on…
C Em A Asus4 Am9 A, Em
But there’s a trapdoor in the sun… Immortality…
[Interlude 1] Em D/F# (x4)
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…
C Em, C Em
A truant finds home, And a wish to hold on
C Em A Asus4 A Am9 A
But there’s a trapdoor in the sun
Em D/F# (x12) – A
I cannot stop the thought… I’m running in the dark…
Coming up a which way sign…
all good truants must decide…
C Em, C Em
Oh, stripped and sold, mom… Auctioned forearm…
C Em A Asus4 Am9 A,
And whiskers in the sink…
Truants move on… cannot stay long
Some die just to live… Ohh…
