I would guess that very few people know R.E.M. did a cover of this song. They did it for
live performance,
although I don't know when or where. Here it is.
Two versions are presented here: first keeps the original lyrics, but played the way
does. The second is
with the lyrics that Michael actually sang during the performance.
VERSION 1:
INTRO
G| C(x2)
G
VERSE ONE
SGomeone told me long ago
There's a calm before the storm, I knDow
And it's been coming for some time
When it's over, so they say
It'll rain a sunny day, I knDow
Shining down like watGer
CHORUS
CI wanna Dknow
Have you eGver seen the Emrain
CI wanna Dknow
Have you eGver seen the Emrain
CComing doDwn on a sunny dayG  
VERSE TWO
GYesterday and days before
Sun is cold and rain is hard, I kDnow
Been that way for alGl my time
G'Til forever on it goes
Thru the circle fast and slow, I kDnow
And it can't stop, I woGnder
CHORUS AGAIN
VERSION 2:
INTRO
G| C(x2)
G
GSomeone told me long ago
There's a calm before the storm, I kDnow
It's been coming for sGome time
GYesterday and days before
Hot is cold and cold is warm, I kDnow
Shining down like Gwater
CI wanna Dknow
Have you eGver seen the rEmain
CComing doDwn on a sunny Gday
GYesterday and days before
Hot is cold and cold is warm, I kDnow
It can't last forGever
GIf forever on it goes
On a circle fast and slow, I kDnow
Shining down like waGter
CI wanna Dknow
Have you eGver seen the rEmain
CI wanna Dknow
Have you eGver seen the rEmain
CComing Ddown on a sunny Gday
CI wanna Dknow
Have you eGver seen the rEmain
CI wanna Dknow
