I can play/fake it on piano but I've found translating this to guitar to be difficult (as you'll see). The following tab is for the intro. If people can figure out how to avoid the finger stretches (alternate tunings?) let me know. If there's interest, I'll continue tabbing the entire song as I play it on piano. Comments are appreciated. I've separated the tab into bass and guitar parts. "( )"'s indicate sustained notes played separately. Rhythm is approximated by spacing, but the timing on the bass and guitar parts are the same (bass tab numbers directly below guitar tab numbers are played at the same time). Guitar E------------0-----------0-----------0-----------0- B---0--2-----------0-----------------------0------- (no, I can't play G-2----2-----------2-----------2-----------2------- this myself easily D---------2-----2-----2-----2--4--------------2---- with a 2nd fret to A---------------------------------7-----7---------- 7th fret span) E-------------------------------------------------- Bass G------1--------1--1--------1--1--------1--1------- Guitar E------------0-----------0-----------0-----------0- B---0--2-----------0-----------2-----------0------- G-2----2-----------2-----------4-----------2------- D---------2-----2-----2-----2-----------------2---- A---------------------------------7-----7---------- E-------------------------------------------------- Bass D------4--------4--4--------4--4--------4--4------- Guitar E------------0--------------------------------- B---0--2-----------0--------(0)---------------- G-2----2-----------2-----(1)-----2------------- D---------2-----2-----(2)--------4------------- A--------------------------------5--5--4--0--2- E-----------------------------------------2--4- Bass D------0--------0--0-------------0--------1---- Now if someone can find a way to avoid these finger spans and possibly combine the bass part to the guitar, then please let me know. I can use this knowledge to continue tabbing the rest of the song. If you play these notes on piano, it will be a lot easier and I think sounds pretty much like the real version. Knowing the intro is the basis for much of the song. Any insight is appreciated. =------------------------|\/|-----\ /-----------------------------= | youtwo@nevada.edu | |arc P \/irata newson@cs.unlv.edu | | (e-mail for a list of U2 related resources on the Net) | | UNLV/CEG | I'm Not A P.E., But I Play One On TV. | CLV/DPW | =------------------------------------------------------------------=
