Letter Never Sent (Live / 1984 Aragon Ballroom)R.E.M.

Released: June 23, 2009

Songwriter: Michael Stipe Mike Mills (R.E.M.) Bill Berry Peter Buck

[Intro: Michael Stipe]
It's very "home"

[Verse 1: Michael Stipe]
It's been pretty simple so far
Vacation in Athens is calling me
And knock, knock, knock on wood
I thought I'd left you behind
Oh, oh-oh, oh

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Mills]
And it's so far
You're all gone
You're all lost

[Chorus: Michael Stipe & Bill Berry, (Mike Mills)]
Heaven is yours (Another story)
Heaven is yours (Another story for a while)
Heaven is yours where I live (Someone, show me)

[Verse 2: Michael Stipe]
I followed the catacomb
Left my soul at home
This letter never sent

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Mills]
And it's so far (Oh)
It's so dark
I'm all lost

[Chorus: Michael Stipe & Bill Berry, (Mike Mills)]
Heaven is yours (Another story)
Heaven is yours (Another story for a while)
Heaven is yours where I live (Someone, show me)

[Bridge: Michael Stipe & Mike Mills]
When I'm moving too fast
Where’s my new address?

[Verse 3: Michael Stipe]
The water receiving me now
The catacombs are filling in
If my soul was made of stone
No, not, not so dark, dark

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Mills]
And it's so far
You're all gone
You're all lost
And it's so far
It's all dark
You're all lost

[Chorus 1: Michael Stipe & Bill Berry, (Mike Mills)]
Heaven is yours (Another story)
Heaven is yours (Another story for a while)
Heaven is yours where I live (Someone, show me)
Heaven is yours (Another story)
Heaven is yours (Another story for a while)
Heaven is yours where I live (Someone, show me)

R.E.M.

R.E.M. were an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist Mike Mills, and drummer Bill Berry.

Berry quit the band in April 1997, as they were getting together to record demos for the album Up. He was not replaced on a permanent basis, but the band used an assortment of drummers in his place.
