Verse
"I waited patiently for the Lord..." etc., etc.
e|-------------------|
B|-------------------|
G|-------------------|
D|----------[7]------|
A|------[7]----------|
E|-------------------|
The harmonic pattern above
is repeated for the verse.
It's pretty easy to "feel"
when you should play it.
Chorus
How long? ...To sing this song?
e|-------------------|---------------------|
B|-------------------|---------------------|
G|---------9---------|---------14----------|
D|---------9---------|---------14----------|
A|---------7---------|---------12----------|
E|-------------------|---------------------|
Play each chord once, and let it ring.
The Edge/Adam play some kind of crazy U2 arpeggio
chords for the E, and i think they play the A bar chord
on the E string, but this sounds just as good.
But, if you REALLY want to play it just like them,
I think they do it like this --
e|-------------------|----------5----------|
B|---------5---------|----------5----------|
G|---------x---------|----------6----------|
D|---------6---------|----------7----------|
A|---------7---------|----------7----------|
E|-------------------|----------5----------|
After Bono sings "How long to sing this song?"
go back to the verse harmonics. Again, you'll
have to feel for it.
The song order is Verse/Chorus/Verse/Chorus, and then
the outtro, I guess. In this portion of the song
(which actually winds up being the longest), play
through the verse once or twice, then play
this little riff twice --
e|---------------------|---------------------|
B|---------------------|---------------------|
G|---------------------|---------------------|
D|---------------------|---------------------|
A|---16----14----12----|----12----14----7----|
E|---------------------|---------------------|
