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. *CAPO 5th Fret* All chords relative to capo C (x32010@1) x32010 Dmaj6add9 x54030 Em (022000@1) 022000 Bm (x24432@1) x2443x Am (x02210@1) x02210 G (320003@1) 320033 Intro X2 C (x32010@1) Em-------0--0-0-0-0--00---------0--0-0-0-0--00--| (022000@1)-------1--1-1-1-1--11---------0--0-0-0-0--00--| -0h2---0--0-0-0-0--00---0h2---0--0-0-0-0--00--| -----0-2--2-2-0-2--22-------0-2--2-2-0-2--22--| -------3--3-3-3-3--33---------2--2-2-2-2--22--| ------------------------------0--0-0-0-0--00--| Dmaj6add9 Em (022000@1) Bm (x24432@1) Oh life is bigger, it's bigger than you.
