Lyrics

No Way

Here’s a token of my openness
Of my need to not disappear
How I’m feeling so revealing
To me, I’ll set my mind too clear
I just need someone to be there for me
I just want someone to be there for me

Oh the static in my attic
Shoots down my sciatic nerve
To the ocean of my platitudes
Longitudes, latitudes
It’s so absurd
I just need someone to be there for me
I just want someone to be there for me

Cause I’ve stopped tryin to make a difference
I’m not tryin to make a difference
I’ll stop tryin to make a difference
No way

Let’s call it an angel

Verse 1:
I shut and locked the front door
No way in or out
I turned and walked the hallway
And pulled the curtains down
I knelt and emptied the mouth of every club around
But nothing’s sound,
nothing’s sound
I stayed here when my last cab left me, ignored all my rounds
Soon I was seeing visions and cracks along the walls
They were upside down

Oh…
A G F# F(I)
I swallowed my wish to keep from lying
A G F# F(I)
I swallowed my face just to keep from biting… biting, biting
A G F# F(I)
I swallowed my breath and believed I was diving, diving
A G F# F(I)
I surfaced and all around me was enlightened

Chorus:
Now…Ah.ha.ha…
I’m in hiding, yeah
I’m in hiding
I’m in hiding
I’m in hiding

Verse 2:
It’s been about three days now, since I've been aground
No longer overwhelmed and it seems so simple now
D Dsus4 G D (II) slide to
It’s funny when things change so much, it’s all state of mind

Bridge II:
A G F# F(I)
I swallowed my words to keep from lying
A G F# F(I)
I swallowed my face just to keep from biting I, I?
A G F# F(I)
I swallowed my breath and went deep, I was diving, I was diving
A G F# F(I)
I surfaced and all around me was enlightened

Chorus:

Now I’m
I’m in hiding, yeah
I’m in hiding
I’m in hiding
I’m in hiding
I’m in hiding, yeah
I’m in hiding
I’m in hiding
I’m in hiding…

Lowlight by Pearl Jam

Transcribed by Pat Giles (pgiles@ntl.sympatico.ca)

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):

[(C] [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)

Intro:

[(C] [Em)]
Clouds roll by[(C][Em)]
Healing is what they say[(C][Em)]
Or is just my way[(C][Em)]
Wind blows by
Low…light
Side…tracked
Low…light
Can’t see my tracks, yours sit way back

Can’t be here all alone[(C][Em)]
Clear a path to my home[(C][Em)]
Blood runs dry[(C][Em)]
Books and jealousy, tell me why[(C][Em)]
I will feel calm[(C][Em)]
Voice blows by
Low…light
Car…crash
Low…light
They wear my mask, your first, my last

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)

[(C] [Em)]

E:------------------------------------------
B:------------------------------------------
G:-4h5-4----------4h5-4-------/9--7--4-----
D:-------5-4-5-----------5-4----------------
A:------------------------------------------

B:------------------------------------------
G:-4h5-4----------4h5-4-------/9--7--4-----
D:-------5-4-5-----------5-4----------------

E:------------------------------------------
B:/8---8p7----------------------------------
G:---------9--7-9-7---/4-/5-4--0------------
D:------------------------------------------
A:------------------------------------------
E:------------------------------------------

Voice goes by[(C][Em)]
Two birds is what they’ll see[(C][Em)]
Getting lost upon their way[(C][Em)]
Wind rolls by
Low…light
I … sigh
Low…light

I need the light
I’ll find my way from wrong, what’s real?
The dream I see

(fade out on D chord)
