Hi, this is my first time tabbing any thing and it might suck.  Anyway
this is a really simple song by pearl jam.  I am not in my room and i
don't have my guitar with me so this might not be perfect but when i play
with the song it sounds perfect.  I don't know the lyrics so look at
another tab or at pearl jam lyrics.

During the chorus and the pre- (C, G, D) it sounds like two guitars
playing, one electric with dist, and a second acoustic or clean with
slight strums

Also for that little riff at the end play with your D chord by striking
the 3, 4, 5th strings at diff intervals
I hope that helps

original lyrics by
From: DQZV09A@prodigy.com (MR VISH D AGGARWAL)

D
And I wished for so long, cannot stay...
D
All the precious moments, cannot stay...
D
It's not like wings have fallen, cannot stay...
D
But I feel something's missing, cannot say...

G
Holding hands are daughters and sons
G
And their faiths just falling down, down, down, down...
Em
I have wished for so long
A
How I wish for you today

D
We all walk the long road. Cannot stay...
D
There's no need to say goodbye...
G
All the friends and family
G                      D
All the memories going round, round, round, round
Em
I have wished for so long
A
How I wish for you today

G
And the wind keeps roaring
G
And the sky keeps turning gray
Em
And the sun is set
A
The sun will rise another day...

D
We all walk the long road. Cannot stay...
D
There's no need to say goodbye...
G
All the friends and family
G                      D
All the memories going round, round, round, round
Em
I have wished for so long
A
How I wish for you today
Em
How I've wished for so long
A
How I wish for you today

D
We all walk the long road  (3x)
