Song: Where The Streets Have No Name
Artist: U2
Album: The Joshua Tree
Tabbed by: Jase Warner (trip_through_your_wires@hotmail.com)

Standard Tuning (E,A,D,G)

I've seen a few versions for this absolutely gorgeous song, but many don't
seem to quite get the octave order right, so this is the tab set out in
running order with the different octaves in the right places.  When you play
it, try and give the rhythm a bit of life when Adam does, it would have
taken forever to incorporate that into the tab! Cheers.

That's it! Like I said, this is definately (from seeing it being played the man himself) the right
way to play the song, so enjoy!  Any suggestions are welcome.
