Here'a a complete version of this song.  The one in the archive is incomplete
and the author asked for the rest, so here it is:

Talk About the Passion
Words and music by Berry, Buck, Mills & Stipe

Transcribed by John Carroll (sorry no words)

All verses start with this riff (repeated twice):
E----------------------------------------------------------------------
B-----------------------------3-------------3-2-0----------------------
G-2-2-------2-2-------------0---0---------0-------2--------------------
D-0-0-0-2-4-0-0-0-2-4-0---2-------2-----2------------------------------
A-----------------------3-----------3-0--------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------------

Then the first verse goes (repeat twice):
E-0-0-0-0-0-0--0-0-0-0-0-0---3-3-3-2-0-0-0-0---------------------------
B-2-2-0-2-2-0--2-2-0-2-2-0---0-0-0-0-0-0-3-3---------------------------
G-2-2-2-2-2-2--2-2-2-2-2-2---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0---------------------------
D-2-2-2-2-2-2--2-2-2-2-2-2---2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2---------------------------
A-0-0-0-0-0-0--0-0-0-0-0-0---2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2---------------------------
E----------------------------0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0---------------------------
This is like A, Asus, and a variation on E-minor, I think.

The 2nd and 3rd verses start with the main riff, but instead of
going right to the A, Asus, etc. it first goes through these licks:
E-------0-------------0-------------0-------------0-0-0----------------
B-----3---3---3-----3---3---3-----3---3---3-----3---3-3----------------
G---2-------------0-------------2-------------0-----0-0----------------
D-3---------3---2---------2---3---------3---2-------2-2----------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------------

Before the 2nd verse goes to the 3rd (and the 3rd to the fade out),
a riff is played with the regular D chord (right after Em stuff):
E-2-2-3-5--2-2-3-5--3-3-3-2-2-2-2-2-------2-0--------------------------
B-3-3-3-3--3-3-3-3--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-----3------------------------------
G-2-2-2-2--2-2-2-2--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-0-2--------------------------------
D-0-0-0-0--0-0-0-0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------------

The fourth verse begins the same way as the other three and fades out
repeating the A / Em stuff.  Good luck, and since this is what MY ears
heard, I'd love to hear any corrections/suggestions.
