Here's the correct version as played by Mike Mills on Rockpalast.
Tuning - some kind of open D.
E (bass string) A D A D D (treble string)
Performance notes: the double tuning of the 'b' and the 'e' to get two 'd'
notes gives a really ethnic kind of drone. Mike has strong hands - this
song is not easy to play unless you're a barre master!
Mix up and down strokes. Listen to the rhythm - these are the notes but
they're tabbed wrong!

Here's the guitar solo from Suspicion... it's pretty heavily modulated
so expect me to be off on a few counts.

Updated chords for Suspicion using basics from DJ Allen, with a slight
variation on his use of G and Bb. I've tried G (320033) and
G/Bb (x10033) and found it a nice option. You decide.
Also added extra chords at the end of the chorus, which also form the
repeat at the end of the song.
I've only added the effected parts of the song here. Repeat througout as
needed.

At my most beatiful - R.E.M.
One of the many great songs from the new album, I just picked it out,
believe it's correct. The bass notes on F/A and Bb/F sound a lot better
if played on a real bass and/or a piano, but if you only have a guitar,
I guess that's better then nothing...

THE APOLOGIST
tabbed by miKe. (ericseis@hotmail.com)
[second half of solo from Chris Lawrence]
This is a cool song played mostly by jamming on Am (open or fifth fret).
Just pile on the distortion and hit single or pairs of strings in the chord
pretty much at random. As long as you keep the 'feel' of the song you can't go
far wrong.
Near the end of the song, as things lose what little definition they had,
just attack the Am(V) and interject with little riffs and jams.
Little Riffs:
e|--7-8b-7-5----5---- or e|--7-8-/11-- perhaps e|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---
b|-----------8-(5)--- maybe b|----------- this b|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---
Am riff: (this is the odd organ backing)
g|--6-8--6/8/6--
d|--7-9--7/9/7--
End riff: (this is the riff that gets played in the final 'bridge')
g|------4--4-5
d|--7--7------

Only 4 chords:
D (open) A(barre) G(barre) F(barre) )(E-shaped barres)
The transitions from A-G and G-A and A-F are usually slides.
In the chorus the song skips two beats (after 'i started a chapter' and
'everybody hates a drunk') so be careful.
If anything's wrong, correct it and curse me for being incompetent.

VERSE CHORDS
VERSE CHORDS:
Dear readers, my apologies
I drifted in and out of sleep
Long silence presents the tragedies of love
Look the age, get afraid. The surface hazy with
attendant thoughts
PRECHORUS CHORDS:
A lazy eye metaphor on the rocks
CHORUS CHORDS:
Late afternoon the house is hot
I started a chapter. Everyone hates a bore
Everybody hates a drunk. Everyone hates a sad professor
I hate where I wound up, I hate where I wound up
