My attempt at the music to Little America by REM, off of Reckoning, a 
brilliant album of classic early REM

the open D string picking is known as "droning" for those who don't know, 
its a Buckian favorite.  Off hand its in 7 CH. Bros, this song, These 
Days and I think a couple more

the chorus is as far as I can tell just transitions between  Bm and D

the ending chord (actually a harmony by definition)
is just the open A, open D and the A on the G string

Live versions of this that I have heard have Peter going nuts and placing 
a note everywhere possible, just repitions of the last note in this 
transcription.  And it definitely sounds like a pedal change with the 
last three notes of the verse, maybe a chorus pedal

Questions comments and alterations are welcome
I left out that bridge on purpose because I don't have a satisfactory 
translation of it yet but will post it ASAP.  Have fun.  Be Kind to those 
you love.  And skinny dip as much as possible.
