NOTES about the chords: * In the last chorus, where all the voices are tangled together, I tried to notate it as best I could. Amy's part is on the first line in capital letters; Michael Stipe's part is below that, in capitals and in parentheses; Emily's part is at the bottom , in parentheses but no caps. I went through the trouble of doing this because the songbook is completely useless for figuring out the end of this song... * Where it says C, that might often be C(9). Mix it up. * C5 (9 fr.)=x32033 or x32030; D11=554030 or x54030; Em7=022030 [Key of G] [Moderate 3/4 time; each chord is one measure] E5 E5 E5 E5 E5 E5 C5 D5 E5 E5 C5 D5 [intro] A5 E5 A5 E5 A5 E5 A5 E5 Pain from pearls, hey little girl, how much have you grown?
