Here's my tab for "Fretless", REM's song off the Until the End of the

World soundtrack....a beautiful, haunting song, and one that I was

surprised not to find already posted....here goes...

That's the basic tune, right there.

before the chorus, it just repeats -3-

--0-

---2-

----- which leads to

B (slide) A D D A E

They come and they come....

B (slide) A D

well, that's it. I'm not too sure about the "don't talk to me" part...I

usually just use a D with a walking down bass line, and it sounds

alright, although it's wrong.

I don't really feel like typing out the words, partly because I don't

know all of them, and I'm lazy as hell....hope this helps....

Input positive and negative very welcome
