Well all you Pearl Jam fans out there here's my interpretation of "I Got ID"

from the CD/promo Merkinball. Feel free to add too it because it is not

100% complete, just don't destroy what I've done.



This is a correction to my original post!!!!!!!!!!



KEY:** X means fill in with number(s) **



    oX       Strum lightly

    X_      Hold previous note(s) and slide up       



INTRO: Repeat 3 times with slight variations



e|5--o5-5--55-6-6o6-5-55-66o6--5-5-5__-3---o3--o3o3-3----------------------|

b|7-----7--77-6-6o6-7-77-66o6--7-7-7__-5---o5--o5o5-5----------------------|

Part just before it breaks into the heavy stuff:



e|5--o5-5--55-6-6o6-5-55-66o6--5-5-5__-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-----------|

Basic chord progression: Bm F# G repeat 4 times 

Actual Chords:

                Bm   F#     G

I got         e|-2----2-----3---|

memories      b|-3----2-----3---|

so much       d|-4----4-----5---|

it don't show a|-2----4-----5---|

              E|------2-----3---|



I guess you would call this the chorus: repeats several times (bla bla bla)

It's definitely not exact!



e|2---2---0---0----0---0-----3-3-3-3-3--------------------------------------|

b|3----3--1----1---1---1-1---0-0-0-0-0--------------------------------------|

g|2-0---0-2-----2--0-0-0--0--0-0-0-0-0--------------------------------------|

a|--------0--------3-3-------2-2-2-2-2--------------------------------------|

E|---------------------------3-3-3-3-3--------------------------------------|



All of this is just the basic framework of the song, you'll repeat certain

parts, add some of your own stuff.

Ok, this is the A-side to the Merkin Ball single. Stone, Mike, and Jeff 

don't play on the song, but there's going to be a different version of it 

on the new album, or so I've heard. Neil Young plays guitar on this 

version, and Brendan O'Brien plays bass. Anyway, it's a great song. Here 

it is:



Intro

-----

     

     D   D   Dm    D    Dm    D    ?

e:|--2---2----1----2-----1----2----0-------------------

B:|--3---3----3----3-----3----3----1-------------------

G:|--2---2----2----2-----2----2----2-------------------

D:|--0---0----0----0-----0----0----0-------------------

A:|---------------------------------------------

E:|---------------------------------------------



This goes on for the begginning of the song, when Eddie sings "My lips 

are shaking...." On the last time through, strum a C chord taking you 

into the...



Verse

-----



This part's easy. Just three chords.

   EADGBe

Bm x24432

F# 244322

G  320022



Chorus

------

Ok, I'm pretty sure this part's right. Four chords:



   EADGBe

D  x00232

Am x02210

C  x30210

G  320022





And that's it! Here's the order you play everything in:



Intro x4

Verse x4

Chorus x2

Intro x2 during guitar solo

Intro x2

Verse x4

Chorus x4

Intro x9

Pearl Jam - "I Got Id" off the Merkin Ball single.

Release Date   : 12-5-95

Tabbed on      : 12-5-95 (same day it was released)

Transcribed by : Gus Perez 'gperez@gate.net'





I heard this song and was instantly addicted to it.  From what I've

heard this is Pearl Jam (minus Stone/Mike) with Neil Young on the

guitars.  The song is played in standard tuning, where some parts

are played clean and others are played with distortion, some LOUD and

some with the volume knob very low.  Play around with the chords and

you should have it pretty quick, it's kinda improvised around the

same chords.





INTRO: (Is also played throughout the song as well as the solo)

      

e|--10------10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10---8--------|

PRE-CHORUS: (Loud powerchords with a'la Neil Young distortion)

            B   F#  G 

            x   x   x

            x   x   x 

            x   x   x

            9   4   5

            9   4   5

            7   2   3



CHORUS: (I believe it's two guitars, Guitar 1 plays the power chords,

         and Guitar 2 plays the open chord arpeggio's)



   Guitar 1: Plays the power chords in this order:

            D   A   C   G 

            x   x   x   x

            x   x   x   x 

            7   x   x   x 

            7   7   10  5

            5   7   10  5

            x   5   8   3



   Guitar 2: Plays the open chords in this order:

            D   Am  C   G

            2   0   0   3

            3   1   1   3 

            2   2   0   0 

            0   2   2   0

            x   0   3   2

            x   x   x   3



SOLO:

You pretty much play the intro over and over again, but you 

emphasize the key notes, improvise it it's not hard at all...

These are the lyrics (or an approximation) that I got off of the 

newsgroups.  This was not written by me, it was written by me but

by Kelly Martinez, I'd like to take the time to thank Kelly, cause 

I for sure can't figure out the lyrics...(LAKH73A@prodigy.com)

I GOT SHIT (Merkin Ball)



My lips are shakin'

My nails are bit off

Been a month since I've heard myself talk

Only advantage this life's got on me

Picture a cup in the middle of the sea



And I fought back in my mind...

Never lets me be right...

I got memories

I got shit

So much it don't show it...



Oh, I walked the line...

When you held me in the night

Oh, I walked the line...

When you held my hand and cried



On empty shells seem so easy to grab

Got all these questions, don't know who I could even ask

So I'll just lie alone and wait for the dream

That I'm not ugly and your lookin' at me



And I sent you to bed...

Oh, in a little while I'll see now

If just once I could feel love...

Oh, stare back at me.



Oh, I walked the line...

When you held me in the night

Oh, I walked the line...

When you held my hand at night

Oh, I walked the line....

When you held me close at night.

I paid the price...

Never held you in the right



My lips are shakin.......

I learned this a long time ago and it is 100% correct.  It is on their

Merkinball single or you can get it on Neil Youngs Mirrorball.

repeat this riff for the verses but strum in between each chord change a few

times.



The Bridge or Pre-Chorus goes like this:



  "Once, I could feel loved . . . . . . . "



e--2---2-2---2-2-2----2--2-x----3----3---3---------------------------------

B--3---3-3---3-3-3----2--2-x----3----3---3---------------------------------

A--2---2-2---2-2-2----4--4-x----5----5---5---------------------------------

E--x---x-x---x-x-x----2--2-x----3----3---3---------------------------------



you can add a few strums too each chord. repeat it four times



Then the Chorus goes:



  "I       walked in line   ,  will you help me in real life . . . "

E--x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x---5------------------8---------------3----

  

each chord recieves eight even strums.

 

THe solo:



just mess around with these notes:
