 "Mysterious Ways"
  ---------------

(Heavy distortion recommended)

This song can be played with a capo on the 8th fret, if you can do that.
Then it becomes fairly simple just playing D instead of A, etc. (see the
chord formations). Or you can play it with a capo on 1st fret, which is
how I've finally put the chords. [Editor's Comment]

Intro/transitions: (Repeated about 9 times)
E--------------------------------------
B------10-10---------------------------
G-------9--9---------------------------
D----7--7--7---------------------------
A-10-----------------------------------
E--------------------------------------
  (Note: the above is basically the A chord played on a few strings)

(Note: chords given below generally are played by an organ in background)

A                             D
Johnny ..
        A                 E

A                                       E           A
You've ..
    
Chorus: (the chorus basically just switches back between the A and D chords)

E--------------10-10-|-----------------
B------10-10---10-10-|-----------------
G-------9--9----7--7-|-----------------
D-------7--7---------|-----------------
A--------------------|-----------------
E--------------------|-----------------
         (A)    (D)

(So, when you see A or D, play the above chord formations, respectively)

A              D

A                D
She'll ..
