Of the Girl
Pearl Jam
Tabbed by Nick Key (nkey@ionet.net)
standard tuning.
easy song - really just two parts
intro:
(After the bass and drums come in, play
only one of these phrases each time the
guitar riff goes around)
Phr. 1
^ ^(2) ^---3---^ ^---4---^
--------------------------------------
---------------2-4--------------------
-4---4-------4-----4--------4-2-4-----
--------------------------2-----------
Repeat the third and fourth phrases the same way,
then pick it up, playing two phrases per guitar round.
In this order: 4, 4, 4, 3, 4
Only two parts to the song
Verse/Solos - same rhythym as intro (two phrases per round)
It doesn't really matter, though. Play it
however many different ways you want. It's not
about what pattern, it's about how. Lock in.
this is a great groove to lose yourself in.
----------------------------------------
----2-4-------------------------2-4-----
--4-----4-----4-2-4----4-2-4--4-----4---
------------2--------2------------------
Chorus
Pay attention - every time before the E
comes in, the bass stops while the guitar
does a little melodic fill.
^sometimes he stops on this note

| I actually found the studio version of this song(I was surprised there WAS a studio version). I saw the song on the back of a CD called "The Versus Sessions" and I had to buy it. It also has another Pearl Jam song I had never heard, called "Mystery". Kind of ironic, really... | |

| For a while i thought Ed sang in the end: " He fills his knife with the blood of a girl " thinking its another song about a killer who acts out of a twisted lack of love in his life.. maybe a man who was involved with a girl who left him and then he killed her in a crime of passion. I was wrong, the song is different. More about someone fixating too much on a girl i think. Anyway great song. | |

| That's because "mystery" was put on a pearl jam sessions CD, but in fact its not a pj song at all. "Just a girl" needs to be played live again, i like it. | |
