“I Am Mine”
Pearl Jam
Intro: D – F – C – G (x4)
D… D F C G
The selfish, they’re all standing in line
Faithing and hoping to buy themselves time.
Me, I figure as each breath goes by,
F G D
I only own my mind.
The north is to south what the clock is to time.
There’s east and there’s west and there’s everywhere life.
I know I was born, and I know that I’ll die,
The in between is mine.
F G D
I am mine…
D G Am D
And the feeling, it gets left behind.
All the innocence lost at one time.
Significant, behind the eyes,
D Cadd9
There’s no need to hide…
Cadd9 D
We’re safe tonight.
[D – F – C – G (x2)]
The ocean is full cause everyone’s crying.
The full moon is looking for friends at hightide.
The sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow’s denied.
I only know my mind.
I am mine…
And the feeling, it gets left behind.
All the innocence lost at one time.
Significant, behind the eyes,
There’s no need to hide…
We’re safe tonight.
SOLO:
D – F – C – G (repeat)
D…
And the meaning, it gets left behind.
All the innocence broken with lies.
Significance, between the lines.
(We may need to hide)…
And the meanings that get left behind.
All the innocents lost at one time.
We’re all different behind the eyes…
There’s no need to hide.
Outro:
G – Am – D (x3)
G – Am
