IN A LITTLE WHILE


Artist: U2
Album:"All that you can't leave behind"

I think this is so pretty close to exactly how they do it:



Riff1: (Use a low overdrive)


       A                                      D7     D                 A
e---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b----------5-------------7-------------------7h8--8p7--7-----------7--------------------
g-------------6-------------6-------------7--7----7----7-----------7--6-----------------
d----------------7--7/8--------8--8/9--9------------------------7-----7-----------------
a---------------------------------------------------------------------7----------------7
E-----4/5----------------------------------------------------------------------5--------

repeat and...

Verse (alternate riff1 and riff1+):


In a little while
surely you'll be mine.
In a little while...I'll be there.
In a little while
this hurt will hurt no more.
I'll be home love.

When the night takes a deep breath
and the daylight has no air.
If I crawl, if I come crawling home,
will you be there?



Chorus:

Bm      G(at the 10th fret)     D    A      (x1)
uuuh uh........


Verse (alternate riff1 and riff1+)

In a little while
I won't be blown by every breeze;
friday night running to sunday on my knees.
That girl, that girl! she's mine.
Well, I've known her since,
since she was

a little girl with spanish eyes.
When I saw her first in a pram they pushed her by.
Oh my, my how you've grown.
Well it's been... a little While



Chorus:

Bm      G        D        A    
uuuh  uh...

Bm      G
uuuh  uh..

D            A
slow down my beating heart

Bm               G
A man dreams one day to flight.

D                         A
A man takes a rocket ship into the skies.

Bm                              G
He lives on a star that's dying in the night

D                            A
and follows in the trail the scatter of light.



Bridge (riff1)

Turn it on, turn it on, turn me on



Chorus:

Bm    G
uuuh  uh...

D            A
slow down my beating heart.

Bm     G
Uuhh   uh... 

D       A
slowly, slowly love.

Bm           G
slow down my beating heart.

D       A
slowly, slowly love.

Bm           G
slow down my beating heart.

D       A            D
slowly, slowly love.
