that are essentially entertainment.
For music for our common future, let's go back to London
and joining us is one of Great Britain's top DJs, Anne Nightingale.
Anne, welcome aboard.
Thank you very much indeed.
Well, shortly we really are going to see Roger McGough,
our common future resident poet, wit and raconteur.
But right now I'd like to introduce to you REM.
It stands for Rapid Eye Movement,
and they're a band who have the twin accolades of having been on the cover of Rolling Stone
and winners of the last top music paper poll here in Britain.
They're from Georgia, USA and say of themselves
that they started out as a small-town crummy bar band.
But now they hold the crown of being in the late 80s the best rock band in the world.
We're delighted to welcome from London to our common future, REM.
[E] This song [F] is for our common [Am] future.
[B]
[A] [B] [Am] [B]
[A] [B] [G] Sometimes I feel like I [D] can't even sing
I'm very scared [G] for this world
I'm very [D] scared for me
Eviscerate your memory
Here's the scene, you're in the backseat
Laying [G] down the [D] windows wrapped around
To the sound of the travel and [Am] the engine
All you hear [G] is time stand still and [C] travel
[Am] You feel such [G] peace and absolute
The stillness [C] still that doesn't end
[Am] But slowly drifts [G] into sleep
The [A] stars are [D] the greatest thing you've ever [A] seen
[D] They're there for you
For you alone you are [G] everything
I think [D] about this world a lot
And I cry and I've seen the films and the eyes
But I'm in this kitchen
[G] Everything is beautiful
She is [G] so beautiful
She is so [D] young and old
I look at [C] her and I see the beauty [G] of the light of music
[C] The voices talking somewhere in [G] the house
Late [E] spring and [C] you're drifting off to sleep
With [G] your teeth in [A] your mouth
[D] You are here with me
You are here with me
You have been [Em] here [D] and you are [C] everything
[B] [Bm] [A]
[Bm] [Am] [Bm]
[Am] [Bm] [B] [G] Sometimes I feel like I can't [D] even sing
I'm very [G] scared for this world
I'm very [C] scared for [D] me
Eviscerate [G] your memory
Here's [D] the senior in the backseat
Lay [G] down the windows
Wrap around [D] to the sound of the travel [C] and the engine
All [G] you hear is time stand still and [C] travel
You feel such peace [G] and absolute
Stillness [C] still that doesn't end but slowly drifts [G] into [A] sleep
The [D] greatest thing you've ever seen
They're there for you
For you alone you are everything
For you alone you are everything
[C] [A]
