Pilgrimage

{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

F G

Take a turn take a turn

F G F G

Take off marching take off marching

Pilgrimage

{the little break is....}

C / / / C(Bbass) / / / Bb / / / G {of course repeated some}

Speaking in tongues it's with a broken lip

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

Your hate clipped and distant your luck

Rest assured this will not last take a turn for the worst

Your hate clipped and distant your luck two-headed

Talk About The Passion

Also, someone asked about the intro tab for Talk About The Passion :

(D)************************* (Cmaj7)**** (A)**********

E-------------- ! ----------------! ---------! ------------------!

B---------------! ----------------! ---3-----! ----232-----------!

G--2--2--2-2--2-! -2--2--2-2-2-2--! --0-0----! ---2---2----------!

A---------------! ----------------! 3-----3--! -0-------0--------!

E---------------! ----------------! ---------! ------------------!

I also play this song by making a D without any finger on the high

E string. Here's how it begins :

-----------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------3---------------0------------------------

--------------------------2---------2-----2---------2------------

0-0-0-2-4--0-0-0-2-4-0------0-----0---------2-----2--------------

2-2-2------2-2-2--------------3-1-------------3-2----------------

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Then this is repeated for the chorus

--------------------3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3------------------------------

0-0-0-0---0-0-0-0------------------------------------------------

2-2-2-2---2-2-2-2------------------------------------------------

2-2-2-2---2-2-2-2------------------------------------------------

2-2-0-2---2-2-0-2---3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3------------------------------

--------------------3-3-3-3-2-2-2-2------------------------------

and this part comes after the chorus

-----------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------0-0-0-0-0-------------------------------

-------------------------2-2-2-2-2-------------------------------

2-2-2-2--2-2-2-2--2-2-2--2-2-2-2-2-------------------------------

3-3-3-3--3-3-3-3--3-3-3--2-2-2-0-2-------------------------------

2-2-3-5--2-2-3-5--3-3-2------------------------------------------

The only thing that I have figured out is the intro/verse section to

"Talk About the Passion". 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/G D F F/G G

Put your hair back you get to leave

F F/G D G

Eleven gallows on your sleeve

F F/G D F F/G G

Shallow figure winner's pain

F F/G D F G F Dm7

Eleven shadows way out of place

C F C Dm

Standing two sure shoulders high in the room

The last time through this part is :

C F C F

Standing two sure shoulders high in the room

{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

B A

Up to par and Katie-bar the kitchen door but not me in

B A

See them try for the big kill wasting 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}

D Bm D Bm

Could it be that one small voice doesn't count in the world

Em A Em A

Yellow like a geisha dawn deny it all the way

Could this be three beaten

Autumn marches on

Yellow like a geisha dawn deny it all the way

D A G (A) D A G

Shaking through all the day

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

Em A Em A

In my life

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}

C Am C Am C Am C Am

Up the stairs to the landing up the stairs into the hall

C Am C Am C Am Em

Take oasis more odd spaces

F Fmaj7 Dm F G

We walk through the wood we walk

C Am C Am C Am C Am

Up the stairs to the landing up the stairs into the hall

C Am C Am C Am Em

Take oasis more odd spaces

F Fmaj7 Dm F G

We walk through the woods we walk

Am F Bb C Am F Bb C Am F Bb C Am F Bb {slide here}

Take oasis take oasis take oasis take oasis

Bb-B-C Am C Am C Am C Am

Up the stairs to the landing up the stairs into the hall

C Am C Am ......

Take oasis more odd spaces

{Same as before}

We walk through the world we walk

Up the stairs to the landing up the stairs into the hall

Take oasis more odd spaces

Up the stairs to the landing up the stairs into the hall

Take oasis more odd spaces

Up the stairs to the landing up the stairs into the hall

Into the hall
