Losing My Religion R.E.M.
LOSING MY RELIGION ACOUSTIC by R.E.M
tabbed by Jonathan Doyle
This is an alternate way to play the song that sounds great fingerpicked
on an acoustic, especially if you're a solo guy playing around town.
It's still in the same key but sounds a little richer, I think.

[Dmaj6add9] Oh [Em]life is bigger, [Bm] it's bigger than you.
And you are [Em]not me, the lengths that I will [Bm]go to.
The distance in your eyes.[Em]
[Bm] Oh no, I've said too [Am]much, I've said [Dmaj6add9]enough.
That's me in the corner, [Em] That's me in the [Bm]spot light,
Losing my religion. [Em] Trying to [Bm]keep up with you.
And I [Em]don't know if I can do it.
[Bm] Oh no, I've said too [Am]much, I haven't said e[Dmaj6add9]nough.
I thought that I heard you [C]laughing.
[C]I thought that I [Dmaj6add9]heard you [Em]sing.
I [C]think I thought I saw [Dmaj6add9]you [Em]try.
Every whis[Em]per,
Every waking [Bm]hour, I'm choosing my confessions.[Em]
Trying to [Bm]keep eye on you.
Like a [Em]hurt lost and blinded fool, fool.
[Bm] Oh no, I've said too much. [Am] I said enou[Dmaj6add9]gh.
Consider this, [Em] consider this [Bm]hint of the century.
Consider this, [Em] the slip, that [Bm]brought me to my knees pale.
[Em]What if all these fantasies come [Bm] flaming aground.
Now I've [Am]said too [Dmaj6add9]much.
I thought that I heard you [C]laughing.
[C]I thought that I [Dmaj6add9]heard you [Em]sing.
I [C]think I thought I saw [Dmaj6add9]you [Em]try.

[G]That was just a dr[Em]eam.
[G] That was just a [Em]dream. That's me in the corner.[Em]
That's me in the [Bm]spot light, losing my religion.[Em]
Trying to [Bm]keep up with you. And I [Em]don't know if I can do it.
[Bm] Oh no, I've said too [Am]much.
I haven't said en[Dmaj6add9]ough.
I thought that I heard you [C]laughing.
[C]I thought that I [Dmaj6add9]heard you [Em]sing.
I [C]think I thought I saw [Dmaj6add9]you [Em]try.
But [C]that was just a dream,[Dmaj6add9] [Em]try, cry, why try.
[C]That was just a dream, [Dmaj6add9]just a [Am]dream, just a [Dmaj6add9]dream, dream.
End on Em
