piano intro is something like this:

(D) ---3------------------- (A) -----3------3---------- (E) --------3-------------- .... repeat then go on to verses...

Take a turn take a turn Take off marching take off marching (G) -------0---------0------------------ (D) ----3---------3----------0-------0-- (A) --1--------1-----------3-------3---- (E) ---------------------1-------1------ ... repeat several times They called the club a two-headed cow Your hate clipped and distant your luck with pilgrimage Rest assured this will not last take a turn for the worst Your hate clipped and distant your luck a two-headed cow CCC F G Pilgrimage has gained momentum

Also, someone asked about the intro tab for Talk About The Passion : (D)************************* (Cmaj7)**** (A)********** E-------------- ! ----------------! ---------! ------------------!

For what it's worth, here it is : 1: 2: 1 0 1 0 3: 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 0 0 0 0 4: 0 0 0 2 4 0 0 0 2 4 0 2 0 0 0 5: 3 2 6: Make sure you try this, because I have a hard time remembering what I play without a guitar in my hands. The second part (after the double notes) may be off a little bit. They are based on the C and G chords, though. Perfect Circle ==============

Some of the chords in this song tend to elude me

^F ^F/GPut your ha^Dir back y^Fou g^F/Get to l^Geave ^F ^F/GEleven gall^Dows on your sl^Geeve ^F S^F/Ghallow fig^Dure w^Fin^F/Gner's pa^Gin ^F E^F/Gleven sh^Dadows w^Fay out of p^Glace ^F ^Dm7 S^Ctanding two s^Fure shoulders h^Cigh in the r^Dmoom

The last time through this part is :

^CStanding two ^Fsure shoulders ^Chigh in the ^Froom

Same as before

Pull your dress on and stay real close Who might leave you where I left off A perfect circle of acquaintances and friends Drink another coin a phrase Heaven assure shoulders high in the room Try to win and suit your needs Speak out sometimes and try to win Standing two ___ shoulders high in the room Sitting Still ============= Note : In this song and many other REM songs, there is an A9 chord. This chord can be interchanged with Asus2. Here is my favorite A9 position : (E) -0- Its just like playing an A chord using a 5th fret (B) -0- barre E chord. If you move it to the seventh fret, (G) -6- it becomes a B11. On the 8th fret, its a Cmaj7. On (D) -7- the 10th, its a D9add6. On the 3rd fret, its a very (A) -7- pretty G6 chord. On the second, its a neat sounding F# (E) -5- sort-of chord. On the first fret, Its a Mexican sounding F chord. A BaddE/F# is an easy chord. Don't play the A-string. Obviously, you pick this chord - don't strum, It'll sound shitty. BaddE/F# BaddE (normal) (E) -0- -0- (B) -0- -0- To switch between these chords, move (G) -2- -2- only ONE finger. (D) -4- -4- (A) -x- -2- (E) -2- -x-

The G#m chord is actually played in an "open" style

Intro : A9 G#m F#m / A9 G#m B /

E BaddE/F# BaddE It's name a god we all agree E BaddE/F# BaddE Secret stop stop it well-read E BaddE/F# BaddE We could find it in the sieve E BaddE/F# BaddE We could gather throw a fit

U^Bp to par and Katie-bar the ki^Atchen door but not me in S^Bee them try for the big kill ^Awasting time sitting still

Same as before

I'm the sun and you can read I'm the sun and you're not dead We could find it in the sieve We could gather throw a fit

Same as intro

I can hear you

You can gather when I talk talk until we're blue You could get away from me get away from me I can hear you Can you hear me? Shaking Through ===============

Intro:
(E) ---5---3---2---0--- (B) ---7---5---3---2--- (G) ---7---5---2---0--- (D) --steady 1/8 notes all the way

once again, there's a melody line played on the E string with the chords, it just alternates between D Dsus2 and Dsus4; with the Bm chord, its easier to play a "cheater" chord (no barre) then pick out the notes. Or I guess you could play straight chords if you're a weenie

^DCould it be that ^Bmone small voice d^Doesn't count in the ^Bmworld ^EmYellow like a geisha ^Adawn ^Emdeny it all the ^Away

Could this be three beaten Autumn marches on Yellow like a geisha dawn deny it all the way

^DSh^Aaking ^Gthro
(A)
ugh a^Dll t^Ahe ^Gday Or have we gone way too far Taking after rain Yellow like a geisha dawn deny it all the way Shaking through all the day Shaking through opportune ^EmIn my l^Aife ^Em ^A

Is that a steal Children of today on parade Yellow like a geisha dawn deny it all the way Shaking through all the day

At the end, the chorus gets played a key up for a while, so it's E B A .... then end on a big 'ol B

We Walk =======

Intro: F Fmaj7 Dm Dm F Fmaj7 Dm Dm

On the C to Am stuff, It sounds good to walk the bass note of the C chord down to a B before playing Am - just like Mikey Mills
