Pearl Jam – Jeremy

May 25, 2008

Given how hip I am now it might be hard for you to believe, but I wasn’t the coolest kid at school. During the grunge era, the cool kids like Nirvana. But I always preferred Pearl Jam (and Eddie Vedder’s later ukulele conversion proved me right).

The riff to Jeremy is very minimal. It’s surprisingly similar to Come Together – using the same notes. I originally tabbed it in the same way (using notes on the C-string at the fifth and seventh frets) but it’s so sparse it needs the C note running through. It’s even worth adding extra picks of the C string to fill out the gaps.

    Right on Woodshed! Pearl Jam are wicked and always have been. Sure, I wasn’t around during the grunge era but I think thats irrelevant. Anyway, thanks for this tab, keep them coming. Maybe you could do evenflow too (hint hint).

    OMG you mind reader! I was just listening to this song the other day and wanting to play it on Uke!

    You’re both welcome. And, Rilrod, I wouldn’t be surprised if that makes its way into the next set of riffs.
