This is exactly like it appears in the Vs. album, for those that refuse to believe 
any other tab beyond what PJ wrote in the album:

"Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town" ~Pearl Jam, Vs. (1993)

D         C              C      G
I seem to recognize your face... 

D         C                    B       C     G
Haunting, familiar, yet I can't seem to place it

D               C                    B          C    
Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name

D             C                B    C
Life times are catching up with me...

C         A              C        A                 G
All these changes taking place, I wish I'd seen the place

A             Em
No one's ever taken me...

D          C             G     C    G
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away... (2x)

D C       B              C        B
I swear I recognize your breath...

D     C         B            C   B      G
Mem-o-ries like fingerprints are slowly raising

D  C   B                        C      B
Me you wouldn't recall, for I'm not my former...

D    C                G             C        B
It's hard when you're stuck up on the shelf...

C            A              C                A           C
I changed by not changing at all, small town predicts my fate

A                      Em
Perhaps that's what no one wants to see

D      C       B        C
I just want to scream...Hello.

D  C        B                   C             B  G
My God it's been so long, never dreamed you'd re-turn

D       C        B        C      B
But now here you are, and here I am

D          C             B      C
Hearts and thoughts they fade...away...

D          C             G     C    G
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away... (2x)

D          C                G   C    G
Hearts and thoughts they fade...away...

D          C             G     C    G
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away... (3x)

D          C             G
Hearts and thoughts they fade...
