You can reach, but you can't grab it

You can push, but you can't direct it

Love
It's not a trick...you can't learn it
It's the way you don't pay, that's OK, cause you can't earn it
You know you're chewing bubble gum
You know what that is but you still want some
You just can't get enough of that lovie dovie stuff
Let go, let's go, discotheque
Go go, let go, discotheque
Looking for the one, but you know you're somewhere else instead
You want to be the song, the song that you hear in your head
Love
But you take what you can get, cause it's all that you can find
Oh you know there's something more, but tonight, tonight, tonight

Discotheque by U2 (main riff)
Transcribed by Richard Zangoli(ahowden@magna.com.au)
For those of you that want to play some new U2 this is a
transcription of the 30 second sample of the upcoming single that has been
recently floating around the internet (along with the sample of Wake Up Dead
Man). If you don't have it I think it is on one of the U2 FTP archives and
on some WWW U2 pages. Island records says that this sample is not of the
final version of the song but we'll have to wait and see. And this
transcription will undoubtably be replaced by a more complete version when
the song is actually released. But for now here is the main riff. The tuning
is standard I think-
E--------------------------------------------------------------------------
B--------------------------------------------------------------------------
G--------------------------------------------------------------------------
D--------------------------------------------------------------------------
A---------5-----------------------5-------------7---------------5----------
E7--7--7----7--7--7-----7--5--7-------7--7--7------7---7---7-------7-7-7---
And then this is played 4 times over while Bono sings the verse-
E--------------------------------------------------------------------------
B--------------------------------------------------------------------------
G--------------------------------------------------------------------------
D--------------------------------------------------------------------------
A---------5--------------7-----------------5-------------------------------
E--7--7-------7--7--7---------7---7---7--------7---7---7-------------------
No wonder Bono said that Edge has fallen in love with the guitar
again .......
This song is very easy to play & tab...
make sure you're in 'dropped D' tuning...
Intro/outro:
--x-x---x-x---x-x--x--
--x-x---x-x---x-x--x-- just repeated over & over..
--x-x---x-x---x-x--x--
--9-11--9-11--9-11-11-
--9-11--9-11--9-11-11-
--9-11--9-11--9-11-11-
The 'main riff/solo' is just this:
---------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------
-5-----------7-----------5-------------------------
---7--5--7-----7--5--7------7--5--7----7-7--5--7---
but, I'm not sure as to which fret they are actually on, as I don't have my guitar on me...
It may be a different fret, but it's the same pattern.

Do you feel loved?
Take the colours of my imagination
Take the scent hanging in the air
Take this tangle of a conversation and turn it into your own prayer
With my fingers as you want them
With my nails under your hide
With my teeth at your back
And my tongue to tell you the sweetest lies
Do you feel loved?
Do you feel loved?
And it looks like the sun, but it feels like rain

IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS
Transcribed by Brandon Leniart (leniarbk@jmu.edu)
This song's about an abusive boyfriend, tune 1/2 step down--in G major.

No one else here to blame
No one to point the finger
It's just you and me and the rain
1---14------12----------
2-------------------15--
3-----------------------
4-----------------------
5-----------------------
6-----------------------
Nobody made you do it, no one put words in your mouth
Nobody here taking orders when love took a train heading south
It's the blind leading the blond
It's the stuff, the stuff of country songs
If GOD will send His angels
And if GOD will send a sign
And if GOD will send His angels
Would everything be alright?

5--------------------------------------
6--------------------------------------
GOD has got His phone off the hook, babe
Would He even pick up if He could?
It's been a while since we saw that child
Hangin' 'round this neighbourhood
See His mother dealing in a doorway
See Father Christmas with a begging bowl
Jesus sister's eyes are a blister
The high street never looked so low

And where is the faith?
And the love?
What's that you say to me?
Does love light up your Christmas Tree?

3-----------7---7--

The next minute you're blowing a fuse
And the cartoon network turns into the news
If GOD will send His angels
And if GOD will send a sign
Well if GOD will send His angels

Where do we go?

6-------------------------------
Jesus never let me down you know
Jesus used to show me the score
Then they put Jesus in show business
Now it's hard to get in the door
It's the stuff, it's the stuff of country songs
But I guess it was something to go on
If GOD will send His angels
I sure could use them here right now
Well if GOD will send His angels
Where do we go?

First I'll define Rythym Figures and Riffs before I actually
get into the song. The song appears to be in the key of Db,
with A B D E & G all flat. At the end of the song is my
attempt at the bass line.

Intro: the intro is mostly Bono's singing with Ryth. Fig. 1 in the
background (there also seems to be an organ I couldn't figure
out). Ryth. Fig. 1 seems to be played in the background
for nearly the entire song.
Ryth. Fig. 1
nobody else here baby

Well, after repeated listenings, I came up with a rough sketch of this
soon to be favorite among U2 fans. I can't wait to hear the main riff
echoing through the POPMART stadiums this summer. Anyway, here's a
rough sketch of how to play the song.
"If God Will Send His Angels", by U2
Tabbed by mps133@psu.edu
Use a Delay Pedal, and you will need some sort of wah-wah to play
certain parts to the song.
THERE IS A CAPO USED ON THE 6th FRET for the Chords and Riffs
Chords with respect to the CAPO are:
C x32010
Am x02210
E* 0200xx
G 3200xx
OPENING VERSE:
For the opening verse, the sound is really hard to match, but it is some
sort of wah-wah type effect. Play the following chords apperegio
through the opening verse (note - the 'G' part is only played once,
repeat the C & Am apperegio throughout the verse):
G C Am
e-----------------------------------------------------
b---------------------1-------1-------1-------1-------
g-----------------------2---2---2---2---0---0---0-----
d-0-0------0-0------------2-------2-------2-------2---
a-2---2----2---2--------------------------------------
e-3-----3--3-----3------------------------------------
C Am C Am
Nobody else here baby no one else here to blame
C Am C Am
No one to point the finger...it's just you and me in the rain
Nobody made you do it no one put words in your mouth
Nobody here taking orders when love took a train heading south
PRECHORUS:
G Am (may be C, not too sure)
It's the blind leading the blond
G Am
It's the stuff the stuff of country songs
REFRAIN:
C E* Am G
Hey if God would send his angels
C E* Am G
And if God will send a sign
C E* Am
And if God will send his angels
E* C
Would everything be alright?
THE RIFF:
There are many little variations that the Edge throws into this riff,
play around with them, and play along with the song to get a feel for
it.
Use Delay for this riff, set to about .4 seconds. This tab is with
respect to the capo on the 6th fret.
e---------------0---------
b-1-1-3-3-----3---3-1----- Just repeat this pattern, and play around
g---------------------2--- with different variations to get it right
Little Riff after Bono Sings "Where Do We Go?"
(no delay for this part). Tab with respect to capo on 6th fret.
d---10--8-10-8----10---8-10-8----8--
a--------------10-------------10----
That's basically the song. I welcome any corrections.
Enjoy.

LAST NIGHT ON EARTH
Transcribed by Brandon Leniart (leniarbk@jmu.edu)
This song is tuned down 1/2 step and changes keys from E minor to E.
Much respect to fellow U2 transcriber Steve Palmer, who I think was
the first to have this song on a website.

GONE
Transcribed by Brandon Leniart (leniarbk@jmu.edu)
This song is tuned 1/2 step down and also changes keys a few times.
Another one of my personal theories is that Bono is singing this song to
himself, and he's trying to deal with his success. Just a thought.
this is actually what the riff sounds like:
E
1------------------------
2------------------------
3------------------------
4---------------------------
5---------------------------
6---------------------------
But since I know that riff is really tough to pull off, I've arranged an
easier version to play (which is probably what Edge uses with an
octaver and/or an effect that automatically produces harmonics):
E
1----------10-----12--
2---12----------------
3---------------------
4---------------------
5---------------------
6---------------------
use these these in between lyrics in the verses:

You get to feel so guilty, got so much for so little

You're holding on to every little thing so tightly

MIAMI
Transcribed by Brandon Leniart (leniarbk@jmu.edu)
This song is TUNED DOWN 1/2 STEP, but I LEAVE the 2ND STRING at a B
natural to get the harmonics right. Once again, I think Edge has a
special machine to do this, but I can't think of a better way of getting
the right sound. It looks harder than it is--just make sure you've got
it on the bridge pickup and lots of distortion, and it sounds real cool.
I think it's in A minor. With Larry's drum beat, I could just imagine
them using "Miami" to segue into "Bullet The Blue Sky"...and I take it
Ali wasn't with Bono on this Miami trip.
Weather 'round here choppin' and changin'
Surgery in the air
Print shirts and southern accents, cigars and big hair
We got the whells and petrol is cheap
Only went there for a week
Got the sun, got the sand
Got the batteries in the handicam

Miami
from: "Dan Bodeman"
There is just some feedback that sounds like feedback coming from his Vox
AC30s. This goes until the lyrics "here comes the car chase" Then it does this
on the low E string.
E---5-5-5-5-555-5(7)-5(7)------------
It goes along with the beat of the drums. The 5(7) is called something like
harp harmonics. What you do to get this is press on the 5th fret with you
index finger then reach over to the 7th fret with you pinky but you just rest
it on the string lightly. Get a really fuzzy distortion to make this work.
Use the same harp harmonics during the rest of the song.

Feeling sea sick again
And the whole world could just dissolve into a glass of water
I've been good 'cause I know you don't want me to
Do you really want me to be as blue as you
It's her daylight that gets me through
We've been here before
Last time you scratched at my door
The moon was naked and cold
I was like a 2 year old who just wanted more
If you wear that velvet dress
If you wear that velvet dress
Tonight the moon's drawn its cutains
It's a private show, no one has to know

So love is bigger than us
But love is not what you're thinking of
It's what lovers deal, it's what lovers steal
with delay:

Did You think to try and warn her?

If there's an order in all of this disorder
Is it like a tape recorder?
Can we rewind it just once more?

Here is some crds/tab for wake up dead man.
(tuned down 1/2 step)
Am G
Jesus, jesus help me
Dm
I'm alone in this world
C G
And what a fucked up world it is too
(verses continue like this all way through, there is a riff/chord change
on the dm chord which I haven't had time to figure out yet)
Chorus:
Am (!!) G D
Wake up, wake up dead man
!! - strike the Am chord twice & let ring
Little chorus riff (play over the G & D chords in the chorus):
a------------5---
e----5---3-------
Note:
Most of the chords are played by striking the bass note of the chord &
then the two bottom strings
ie Am -> ---5-----5-
---5-----5-

-5---5-5---
This could actually be way off.... any comments would be nice! :)

Wake Up Deadman
from:GregL550@aol.com
In Eb, here it is. It involves picking chords. Slight distortion is used
during the chorus:
Verse: Am G F Dm C G
Chorus: Am G D
the Dm Edge plays is like this:
-----------------0--------------E
-----------------6-------------B
-----------------7------------G
-----------------7----------------D
-----------------5----------------A
Wake Up Deadman
from:Heiko Ziegler
Verses : Fis Fis Gism Gism E Cism H Fis
(I wrote the first Fis and the first Gism two times to give you a
better idea of the timing )
Refrain: Gism Fis
Instead of playing the Fis accord in the refrain you can play on the 2.,
1. and the 4. fret with the a-string (actually ,that`s what the Edge
plays ).
I have tried to fix a little bit on Wake Up...
This is my verson(some errors, but I'll correct them later)
Enjoy
I also have the bass-line to If You Wear...
here it is: G C(#?) A F E F G (and so on). it also contain an A in the bridge.
If any comments to the chords or my English, mail me
Xyndiack@hotmail.com
Oyvind Aasan
minor correction
C#m to F#m in the last phrase before the chorus.
