Nothingman - Pearl Jam

Once divided, nothing left to subtract

Some words when spoken, C can't be taken back

Walks on his own, with thoughts he can't help thinking

Future's above, but in the past he's slow and sinking

Caught a bolt of lightning, cursed the day he let it go

Nothingman, nothingman

F Bb5 C

Isn't it something? Nothingman

F Dm C Dm Bb5

She once believed in every story he had to tell

F Dm C Dm Bb5

One day she stiffened, took the other side

F Dm C Dm Bb5

Empty stares from each corner of a shared prison cell

F Dm C Dm Bb5 Dm

One just escapes, one's left inside the well

Bb5 C Bb5 A5 Bb5 C

And he who forgets will be destined to remember oh oh oh

Chorus:

F Bb5 C

Nothingman, nothingman

F Bb5 C

Isn't it something? Nothingman

Bridge:

Dm Bb5 C

Oh, she don't want him (she don't want him)

Bb5 Dm Bb5 C Dm

Oh, she won't feed him, after he's flown away

Bb5 A5 Bb5

Oh, into the sun, yeah into the sun

C

Burn, burn, burn burn

Chorus:

F Bb5 C

Nothingman, nothingman

F Bb5 C

Isn't it something? Nothingman

F Bb5 C

Nothingman, nothingman

F Bb5 C

Coulda been something, nothingman
