When Love Comes To Town by U2

Tabs

In-Reply-To:

I do this by memory, the chords are correct, maybe the placing of them
is wrong, well here it is, And the lyrics are the actual of what they
sing on the tape, becasue the insert on it gives you a very bogus
non-true version:


**************************************************************************

          "When Love Comes To Town"
             Music by U2
            Lyrics by Bono Vox


Transcribed by Misha Rutman ([email protected]), all corrections are
more than welcome!!

  You actually don't play the chords that are in parenthesis, if you
do an acoustic version, play then all of them, but the actual guitar
part played by The Edge is what you see w/o parenthesis.

  The rhythm guitar part is just change between Chord diagramA augmentedA and E: just hit each
chord once one after the other and let it ring until the next one like
that, if you listen closely to the tape you can hear it. All music stops
where I wrote "E(stop),"But The Edge has a delay going over his rhythm
part and you can hear it really clear at the stops.

Intro(Bono): guitar part just as in the first two lines of verse:

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Verse1(Bono):
(Chord diagramE MajorE)               Chord diagramA augmentedA Chord diagramE MajorE
I was ..
(Chord diagramE MajorE)                      Chord diagramA augmentedA Chord diagramE MajorE
I ..
(Chord diagramE MajorE)                  (Chord diagramA augmentedA Chord diagramE MajorE)
I ..
  E(stop)
Now ...

Chorus(B.B.):
(Chord diagramA augmentedA)
Love ..
             Chord diagramA augmentedA
I'm ..
   Chord diagramE MajorE
When ..
              Chord diagramA augmentedA Chord diagramE MajorE
I'm ...

Maybe ..
    E(stop)
But ...

This is the B.B.'s fill, do it twice:
(* means bend it up 1/4 of a step)

--------------------E
---5*--5*----3-3----B
------------------4-G
--------------------D
--------------------A
--------------------E

Verse 2(Bono):

Verse 3(Bono):

Chorus(B.B.):

The Edge solo (he picks open Chord diagramE MajorE chord)
Play the figure 4 times (# this note plays only the first time):

0#-|-----------0-|----------E
---|--0----------|----------B
---|----1--------|----------G
---|-----2-------|----------D
---|-------2-----|----------A
---|---------0---|----------E

Chorus(B.B.) over The Edge's solo part (the figure above):

B.B.'s solo, sorry I do not remember it, but it is basically played
around the fill he does between the first chorus and the second verse.

Verse 4(B.B.), there is no guitar part over this one:

Chorus(B.B.):

The second solo by B.B. in the beginning of which Bono sings his famous:
"Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.........."
And it fades as B.B. solos.
Enjoy!!




Benevolence and warm fuzzies!
Misha.
