This should be F#m to D, but Bmin to G sounds pretty good. 8)

>finaly, that little riff that the edge plays after bono sings "all I want, is   
>you" is just the first little riff with the ocassional sus2 chord thrown in.    
>hopefully i'll have time to make a better transcription of this song sometime.
>it would sure help to have my guitar with me when I hear it next...
In order to play along with the song, use G, C, and Em, and capo on the 
first fret....

(capo 1st fret)

    G         C
You ..
        Em          C
All ..
         Em            C
From ..
     G     C       G
When ..

(these are the same sounding chords to U2's "Numb" if you want to try a 
weird cover version combining two songs)

I try to get by on Edge's riffs with something like:
-3-3-3-3-3-3--0-0-0-0-0-0---
-0-0-0-0-0-0--1-1-0-1-3-1---
-0-0-2-0-2-0--0-0-0-0-0-0---
-0-0-0-0-0-0--2-2-2-2-2-2---
----------------------------
----------------------------

The strings in the end use a G7, C, G, progression I believe.

I think U2 plays this in A, tuned down half a step.  I use G because I 
like the sound.

ALL I WANT IS YOU (U2)

INTRO: G (320033) C (x32010) (repeat)
       For an intro riff, I alternate the second-string D and the 
       open G on the G chord, then the open high E and G of the C,
       adding appropriate bass notes:
       G (d"d" g"d" g"d" ) C (g"e" g"e" g"e" g") (repeat)

    G       C      G                    C
You ..
    G       C         G                 C
You ..

                Em             C              Em            C
CHORUS: All ..
             G     C       G (into intro riff)
        When ..
