Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town Pearl Jam
Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town
(In 6/8 time)
[Verse 1:]
[D]I [Cadd9]seem to re[G]cognize your [Cadd9]face[G/B]
[D]Haugh[Cadd9]ting fa[G]milier yet I can't [Cadd9]seem to [G/B]place it
[D]Cannot [Cadd9]find the [G]candle of thought to [Cadd9]light your [G/B]name
[D]Life[Cadd9]times are [G]catching up with [Cadd9]me[G/B]
[Pre-cborus 1:]
[Cadd9]All these [A]changes taking place[Cadd9] I [A]wish I'd seen the place
[Cadd9] but [A]no one's ever [Em]taken me
[Cborus]
[D]Hearts and [Cadd9]thoughts they [G/B]fade[G] [Cadd9]fade a[G]way
[D]Hearts and [Cadd9]thoughts they [G/B]fade[G] [Cadd9]fade a[G]way
[Verse 2: same as before]
I swear I recognize your breath
Memories like fingerprints are slowly raising
You wouldn't recall for I'm not my former
It's hard when you're stuck up on the shelf
[Pre-cborus: same as before]
I changed by not changing at all Small town predicts my
fate perhaps that's what no one wants to see
[Verse 3: same]
I just want to scream, "Hello!"
By God it's been so long Never dreamed you'd return
But now here you are and here I am
Hearts and thoughts they fade away
