Have some friends playing drums and bass with you and have fun with the easy chords. The only nit is the singing. :wink:
IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT (AND I FEEL FINE) – R.E.M.
G Cmaj7 G
That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an airplane -

common group, but it'll do. Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves its

Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign tower. Slash and burn,

blood letting. Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate. Light a candle,

light a motive. Step down, step down. Watch a heel crush, crush. Uh oh,
G Cmaj7
this means no fear - cavalier. Renegade and steer clear! A tournament,

a tournament, a tournament of lies. Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives

The strumming is very simple, but it have to be played pretty fast.

This is a great song. My only question is where are the changes, especially during the verses?
Thanks, and keep 'em coming.

I have the song with the right changes in a text file, but how can I paste it here without having the spaces erased? This keeps bothering me everytime I want to post a new song here.

I am not sure myself, but Vic knows how. Maybe he will come on and tell you. You can use dashes for space.
One thing I have learned to do is hit preview before submit. Then you can see how it comes out, go to the bottom and correct. Then hit preview again. Sometimes you have to go through it several times before it spaces properly. But finally you get it spaced pretty good, then hit submit.
This is a great song. Thanks

Using the CODE format option when posting the cut & paste from the text file will maintain the spaces
Hi, Guilherme....I use courier new font size 10 on Word or Notepad, then when you're ready to paste it in, click on "Code" on the list of options to the right of "Message body" and then copy your tab. There is also an "edit" option when you've submitted your tab, so you can go back and change it.....
Keep 'em coming.......!

On a sidenote, aren't the lyrics wrong?
Some of the lyrics are right but some are wrong. I used to have a correct saved on my computer somewhere. If I find it I will post it.
Gun control is using both hands!!!
That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane and Lenny Bruce is not afraid.

Left of west and coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck. Team by team reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped. Look at that low playing! Fine, then.
