The intro is in D major, and the guitar is in standard tuning. After the intro tab, the pre-verse chords are standard open position D, A, G, G. In the verse, The Edge alternates between standard open position A,A,G,G and D,A,G,G. In the chorus, the chords are standard open position Em,G,D,A. When playing each chorus chord, The Edge also picks the high E, B and G strings for some melody. There are other guitar parts but that should be enough to get you started ... |---7-----7----|---7-----7----|---5-----5----| |------5-------|------5-------|------5-------| |-7---------7--|-7---------7--|-7---------7--| |--------------|--------------|--------------| |--------------|--------------|--------------| |--------------|--------------|--------------| |---5-----5----|---7-----7----|---7-----7----| |------5-------|------5-------|------5-------| |-6---------6--|-7---------7--|-7---------7--| |--------------|--------------|--------------| |--------------|--------------|--------------| |--------------|--------------|--------------| |-----------------|-0----|-| |-----------------|-7----|-| |-7-7-7-6-6-6-----|-0----|-| |---7-7-5-5---7s4-|-4----|-| |-----------------|-5----|-| |-----------------|------|-| U2 - CRUMBS FROM YOUR TABLE --------------------------- Tabbed by jules Here's the intro.
