Cant get there from here

R.E.M



 Bm7BmC#mB
 When the world is a monster
 Bm7BmC#mB
 Bad to swallow you whole
E B G# (open B and E strings)
Kick the clay that holds those teeth in
G6 F# (open B and E strings)
Throw your troubles out the door
 Bm7BmC#mB
 If you're needing inspiration
 Bm7C#mBB7
 Philomath is where I go 
 EBG#
 Lawyer Jeff he knows the lowdown
 G6F#
 He's mighty glad to visit home
 EAF#B
 I've been there I know the way
Can't get there from here
.......F#
When your hands are feeling empty
Stick heads jumpin off the ground, 'round
Tris is sure to shirr the deers out
Run away sing my song
 BDAB
 Hands down Calechee bound  
 BDAB
 Landlocked kiss the ground  
Dirt of seven continents going round and round
Go on ahead Mr. Citywide hypnotized, suit and tied
Gentlemen, testify
.....F#
If your world is a monster
Bad to swallow you whole
Philomath they know the lowdown
Throw your troubles out the door

The first verse progression is actually
 Bm7E/G#B
                        > Bm7  Bm  C#m        B
> When the world is a monster
> Bm7 Bm C#m B
> Bad to swallow you whole
> E B G# (open B and E strings)
> Kick the clay that holds those teeth in
> G6 F# (open B and E strings)
> Throw your troubles out the door
Same progression as first verse again...
> Bm7 Bm C#m B
> If you're needing inspiration
> Bm7 C#m B B7
> Philomath is where I go
> E B G#
> Lawyer Jeff he knows the lowdown
> G6 F#
> He's mighty glad to visit home
>
> E A F# B
> I've been there I know the way
> Can't get there from here
> .......F#
This should be .......Bsus4 (open 5 and 6 strings)
> When your hands are feeling empty
> Stick heads jumpin off the ground, 'round
> Tris is sure to shirr the deers out
> Run away sing my song
This should be octave roots as follows:
 BC#DEAB
                                    > B           D                  A   B
> Hands down Calechee bound
> B D A B
> Landlocked kiss the ground
> Dirt of seven continents going round and round
> Go on ahead Mr. Citywide hypnotized, suit and tied
> Gentlemen, testify
> .....F#
Again, this should be .....Bsus4
> If your world is a monster
> Bad to swallow you whole
> Philomath they know the lowdown
> Throw your troubles out the door
