R.E.M. was an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by drummer Bill Berry, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist/backing vocalist Mike Mills, and lead vocalist Michael Stipe. One of the first alternative rock bands, R.E.M. was noted for Buck's ringing, arpeggiated guitar style, Stipe's distinctive vocal quality and obscure lyrics, Mills's melodic basslines and backing vocals, and Berry's tight, economical style of drumming.
R.E.M. released its first single—"Radio Free Europe"—in 1981 on the independent record label Hib-Tone.

AD Sleep delays my life A Where does the time go...go D I don't know A Sleep sleep sleepy head D Wake it up...up A You've got all your life D Way up ahead
EBCGA Dreams they complicate my life EBCGBb Dreams they compliment my life
I've seen you laying pined I've seen you laying pined Life is rough...rough I've seen you laying down...down With the loving kind I know life is hard...hard Well now Where to turn?
