Leave chords by R.E.M.

LEAVE



This is obviously an electric guitar song. So it is really
neat to play if you have an amp with good overdrive. It
sounds better if you have a guitar with a pickup selector
switch like a Rickenbacker or a Les Paul, but that is just
for more flair and perfection.

Cool trick:
If you have a fairly good CD player, hit the pause button
(which should put the player in standby/play mode) then go
to track 6. Now you should have an INDEX button on your
remote, hit Index to number 2 (usually it is a smaller number
on the digital display right next to the track number). The
CD will automatically skip over the 1:01 min interlude/intro
on the acoustic guitar and right to the actual "beginning"
of the song!!! Pretty cool!! I assume this was done to
accomodate Radio DJ's who want not such a long song...
Now go check all of your other CDs to see who else did this!!

Amp Setting:
MEDIUM OVERDRIVE, MEDIUM GAIN, MEDIUM REVERB, MEDIUM CHORUS
