PEARL JAM - SAD
[Intro]
DmF Am
     x 4
[Verse]
Dm                      F             Am
All the photographs are peeling, and colors turn
Dm                 F                  Am
To gray, he stayed, in his room with memories 
Dm                  F                Am
For days, he faced,  an undertow of future's laid 
Dm                 F                Am
To waste, embraced,  by the loss of one he could not 
[Chorus]
Dm                       F                 Am
Replace and there's no reason that she'd passed 
Dm            F             Am  A#
And there is no god with a plan
      A   Dm         F           A#
it's sad, and his loneliness is proof
      A  Dm        F         A#        A
it's sad he could only love you, it's sad
Dm F Am
       x2
[Verse]
Dm                                  F        Am
The door swings through a passing fable,   a fate we may 
Dm                F              Am
delay, we're safe, holding on, deliberate in our 
[Chorus]
Dm               F                Am
Embrace, Eleven nights he laid in bed 
Dm           F                     Am   A#
Hoping that dreams will bring her back   
      A   Dm       F             A#
It's sad  and his loneliness is proof
      A  Dm         F         A#        A
It's sad  he could only love you, it's sad
Dm
[Bridge]
Dm           C      A      C    A          Dm
Holding his last breath, believing,  he'll make his way 
Dm               C  A           C    A          C              A
but she's not forgotten ,  he's haunted,  he's searching for escape

F  E
Dm
[Chorus]
Dm            F                   Am   A#
If just one wish could bring her back
      A  Dm       F             A#
it's sad  and his loneliness is proof
      A  Dm         F          A#
it's sad  he will always love you
      A
it's sad
