"Like A Song"
U2 (WAR, 1983)
one of my favorite U2 songs and it was miserable for me to figure out but its
really simple...
tune down 1/2 step...
VERSE:
Em D A
(good luck with the timing):
Eb---------------------------------
Bb---0-------3--------0----------
Gb------0-------2--------2-------
Db-2------2------------------2---
Ab------------------0-------------
Eb---------------------------------
SOLO:
Ascends up the second string - figuring it out's pretty simple - and
the rhythm parts are all three-note power chords consisting of the 1st, 5th
and 8th notes of the scale.
e.g. "Angry words won't stop my fight" is a G power chord with the root on
the fourth string, fifth
fret which then slides up two frets to A for the next line.
comments? if they are negative...go away! if they are positive, send them
