Loosing My Religion chords by R.E.M. (Ver. 2)

The Intro – you start of with an open F chord 012300, with your little finger on the
3rd fret B string and you play this riff

e|---0--------|
B|-1---1------|
G|-------2----|
e|------------|
B|------------|
G|------------|

Once you've done this you lift your little finger and begin strumming the intro

F  Am x 2 then to the G before the lyrics start

G     Am      Em
   Oh, Life is bigger…...It's bigger than you,
      Am               Em
and you are not me, the lengths that I will go to
           Am  Em        Dm            G
The distance in your eyes,    Oh no, I've sa-id too much…… I set it up

         Am             Em
That's me in the corner, that's me in the spot-light,
     Am          Em
Losing my religion, trying to keep, up, with you
    Am             Em       Dm               G
And I don't know if I can do it,   Oh no I've said too much, I haven't said enough


               F
I thought that I heard you laughing,
         G     Am    F         G    Am
I thought that I heard you sing….. I think I thought I sa-w you try


G       Am           Em
   Every whisper, of every waking hour,
     Am               Em
 I'm choo-sing my confessions, trying to keep an eye on you
    Am               Em        Dm        G
Like a hurt lost and blinded fool, fool   Oh no, I've said too much…..I set it up


     Am           Em
Consider this, consider this, the hint of the century
     Am         Em
Consider this, the slip, that brought me to my knees... failed
Am                Em              Dm     G
What if all these fantasies come,  flailing around, now I've said, too much


              F
I thought that I heard you laughing,
         G     Am    F         G    Am
 I thought that I heard you sing…… I think I thought I sa-w you try


At this point the song goes into the mandolin solo, and most tabs
Play this starting on the 12th fret, but it's easier playing it like this
you stay with the Am chord and play this little riff

e|-0-0-0-----------------0-0-0------------------|
B|------3-3-3-1-1-1------------3-3-3-1-1-1------|
G|-----------------2-2-2------------------2-2-2-|
e|----------------------------------------------|
B|----------------------------------------------|
G|----------------------------------------------|

C          D    C        D
But that was just a dream. That was just a dream


         Am            Em
That's me in the corner, That's me in the spot-light,
     Am         Em
Losing my religion, trying to keep up with you
   Am             Em        Dm              G
And I don't know if I can do it,    Oh no, I've said too much, I haven't said enough


              F             G     Am
I thought that I heard you laughing, I thought that I heard you sing
  F         G    Am    F           Am
I, think I thought I saw you try, but that was just a dream, try, cry, why, try
F               Am      G      Am
That was just a dream, just a dream, just a dream, Dream

To end you end the verse with an Am chord again and just pick the high E string 7
times, then one downward strum on the Am, repeat this 4 times and end with the
little end riff, still on the Am chord
