This is my favorite song off of Pearl Jam's latest album Binaural.
I've
only had the album for a week, since it was released, but when I heard
this song I had to know how to play it. I think it is correct, it
sounds
like it to me :) I havn't yet tabbed the solos but I'll get to it when
I can.

This is my interpretation of the song and all work has been done by me.

VERSE
[D]I've used [Bm]hammers made out of [C]wood.
I have played [A]games with pieces and [D]rules.
I've de[Bm]ciphered tricks at the [C]bar,
but now you're [A]gone I havn't figured out [D]why.
I've come up with [Bm]riddles and jokes about [C]war.
I've figured out [A]numbers and what they're [D]for.
I've understood [Bm]feelings and I've understood [C]words,
but how could you be [A]taken away.
CHORUS
[Dmaj7]And [D]wher[Dmaj7]ever [Dsus2]you've [D]gone,
[Dmaj7]and [D]wher[Dmaj7]ever [D]we [Dmaj7]might [Bm]go.
It don't seem [A]fair,
( Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/p/pearl_jam/light_years_crd.html )
todays just disa[D]ppear.
[Dmaj7]Your [D]light's [Dmaj7]reflec[Dsus2]ted [D]now,
[Dmaj7] [D] [Dmaj7]Reflec[D]ted [Dmaj7]from a[Bm]far.
We were but [A]stones,
your light made us [D]stars.
BRIDGE
[A] [C] [D] [A]
VERSE
[D]With heavy [Bm]breath,
awakened re[C]grets,
backpages and [A]days alone that could have been [D]spent,
together, but [Bm]we were miles [C]apart,
every inch bet[A]ween us becomes light years [D]now.
No time to be [Bm]void,
or to save up on [C]life,
ah you've got to [A]spend it all...
CHORUS
[Dmaj7]And [D]wher[Dmaj7]ever [Dsus2]you've [D]gone,
[Dmaj7]and [D]wher[Dmaj7]ever [D]we [Dmaj7]might [Bm]go.
It don't seem [A]fair,
you seemed to like it [D]here.
[Dmaj7]Your [D]light's [Dmaj7]reflec[Dsus2]ted [D]now,
[Dmaj7] [D] [Dmaj7]Reflec[D]ted [Dmaj7]from a[Bm]far.
We were but [A]stones,
your light made us [D]stars.
