KID FEARS (Amy Ray)
-------------------
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.
C (9 fr.)x32033 or x32030; D11554030 or x54030; Em7022030
(Key of G)
(Moderate 3/4 time; each chord is one measure)

This is the only tab I have (and you probably already figured this out):
[Em] [Cmaj7] [D11]
E ------------|------------|------------|------------|
B 0-----3-----|------0-----|------------|------------|
G ------------|2-----------|0-----2-----|--0---0---0-|
D ------------|------------|------------|4---4---4---|
A ------------|------------|------------|------------|
E +---+---+---|+---+---+---|+---+---+---|+---+---+---|
The chord fingerings I use for those four measures are:
022000 022030 | 022200 022000 | x32000 x32200 | x54030 |
If you use these fingerings, you should be able to hear that tab part
in the chords.
