NOTES.
1.  Depeche Mode play this live in Cm.  This interpretation is a simplification of the chords it
includes a capo on 1 and the repetitive riff.
2.  “…In 1990, a promotional video for "Enjoy the Silence" was shot by French TV (for the TV Show
"Champs-Élysées" with Michel Drucker) featuring Depeche Mode lip-synching the song while standing atop
the World Trade Center at the WTC rooftop World observatory, south Tower #2. …”
