R.E.M. - I Believe: chords

      F
When I was young and full of grace
and spirited--a rattlesnake.
When I was young and fever fell
My spirit, I will not tell
           A#                Gm
You're on your honor not to tell

      F
I believe in coyotes and time as an abstract
                                      A#
Explain the change, the difference between
                    Gm                        C
What you want and what you need, there's the key,
                Am
Your adventure for today, what do you do
    A#                 C
Between the horns of the day?

Chorus:
F C F C   F         C                Gm
I      believe my shirt is wearing thin
                   A#
And change is what I believe in

When I was young and give and take
And foolish said my fool awake
When I was young and fever fell
My spirit, I will not tell
You're on your honor, on your honor

When I was young and give and take
And foolish said my fool awake
When I was young and fever fell
My spirit I will not tell
You're on your honor on your honor

Trust in your calling,
make sure your calling's true
Think of others, the others think of you
Silly rule golden words make,
practice practice makes perfect,
Perfect is a fault, and fault lines change

Chorus:
I believe my humor's wearing thin
And change is what I believe in
I believe my shirt is wearing thin
And change is what I believe in

When I was young and full of grace
As spirited a rattlesnake
When I was young and fever fell
My spirit, I will not tell
You're on your honor, on your honor

C
I believe in example
Am
I believe my throat hurts
  A#                           C
Example is the checker to the key

Chorus:
I believe my humor's wearing thin
And I believe the poles are shifting
I believe my shirt is wearing thin
And change is what I believe in
