   BETTERMAN
ARTIST: Pearl Jam
TAB BY: Neil Smith ([email protected])

Main Riff:


                                            This note is played
                                          in the intro, but I'm
                                       not sure about the verse.

                                                     ^^^ 
                              This note is not played in the
                              intro, but is present when Vedder
                              is singing the verses.

And everything else is just a repeat of those bits, I think.

Hope that's OK. Cheers ...
