Window in the skies - U2
- Revised from my first attempt, a few listens-through sitting at the piano helped.
This song was actually probably written on Piano, The verse progression actually is like this:
G  Gsus4/F  G/E  Gsus4/C  
 Gsus4/D  Gsus4/C  G  Am
But that's no small feat on guitar, so the chords below work fine, but work best when 
with a piano or keyboard.
Also, the song is in 6/8, which is a bit tricky for some guitarists.

**Verse**
                   G
The shackles are undone
                     D2/F
The bullets quit the gun
                       Em7
The heat that’s in the sun
                           Cadd9
Will keep us when there’s none
                       Em7
The rule has been disproved
                      Dsus4
The stone it has been moved
                    Cadd9
The grave is now a groove
                G     Am
All debts are removed

**Chorus**
             G        D        Am
Oh can’t you see what love has done?
             G        D        Am
Oh can’t you see what love has done?
             G        D        Am
Oh can’t you see what love has done?
          C       D
What it’s done to me?

**Verse**
                     G
Love makes strange enemies
                          D2/F
Makes love where love may please
                      Em7
The soul and its striptease
                    Cadd9
Hate brought to its knees
                 Em7
The sky over our head
                         Dsus4
We can reach it from our bed
                   Cadd9
You let me in your heart
              G     Am
And out of my head, head…

**Chorus**
             G        D        Am
Oh can’t you see what love has done?
             G        D        Am
Oh can’t you see what love has done?
             G        D        Am
Oh can’t you see what love has done?
          C       D
What it’s done to me?

**Bridge**
F#m          B2
Oh, oh, oh, oh…
F#m          B2
Oh, oh, oh, oh…
C
Please don’t ever let me out of you

**Chorus to ending**
             G        D        Am
Oh can’t you see what love has done?
             G        D        Am
Oh can’t you see?
             G        D        Am
Oh can’t you see what love has done?
          C        D
What it’s doing to me?

               G        D        Am
I know I hurt you and I made you cry
                   G      D       Am
Did everything but murder you and I
    G           D             Am
But love left a window in the skies
C      D
And to love I rhapsodize
             G        D        Am
Oh can’t you see what love has done?
To every broken heart
             G        D        Am
Oh can’t you see what love has done?
For every heart that cries
G           D             Am
Love left a window in the skies
C      D
And to love I rhapsodize
