Jeremy Pre-Chorus (Pearl Jam)

[kynoch]

I am having real trouble working out the pre-chorus to this song starting at around 0:40 - 0:50 and 1:53 - 2:10 in the song. I can here parts but I just can't get/hear whats going on in there. Does anybody know??? There are loads of tabs out there but I am sure they aren't right either. Does anybody cover this track??? What do you Play??? HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[madkat]

to me it sounds like the intro riff, with a few power chords thrown in possibly? the mixing makes it kinda disambiguous, as the guitar and bass kinda get merged.

The "ruined his world" bit or whatever im not too sure about

[tx_tech]

Starting at the "daddy didn't give attention" to the "ruled his word" part it looks like this based on sheet music... Sorry my tabbing skills suck...ho stands for hammer on...

Thanks thats REALLY helpful.

It sucks the bass is so hard to hear in the mix.
