Beautiful Day by U2 guitar tab (text):

Artist: U2

Song: Beautiful Day(Album all that you can't leave behind)

Tabbed by: John Leadman











Chords used: 



A        x02220

Bm       x24432

D        xx0232

G        320033

Em       022000



it is easier playing the main verse (A Bm D G D A) shaking only the

strings DGB:



A*       xx222x

Bm*      xx443x

D*       xx023x

G*       xx003x



Anyway this is what Edge really plays during the chorus:



A5       577xxx

B5       799xxx

D5       x577xx

G5       355xxx 



playing of course A5 B5 D5 G5 D5 A5 shaking like a rocker! ;)

Edge plays three riffs along the song:



1. the MAIN VERSE RIFF 

2. the CHORUS RIFF 

3. the FINAL CHORUS RIFF 



The first of them (MAIN VERSE RIFF) isn't always

the same. It changes four times.

Of course you have to use a lot of delay to play like

The Edge does.



MAIN VERSE RIFF 1 ('You're out of luck...'; 'Someone you...')



    A     Bm    D           G        D          A

e|--------------------------------------------------------|

B|--------------------------------------------------------|

G|--------11----------9--------11---------11--------------|

D|--11----------12-------9--9--------9----------11--------|

A|--------------------------------------------------------|

E|--------------------------------------------------------|



MAIN VERSE RIFF 2 ('The traffic is stuck...'; 'You thought...')



    A     Bm    D             G       D          A

e|--------------------------------------------------------|

B|--------------------------------------------------------|

G|--------9----------9----11-------9-------11-------------|

D|--11----------12------------9-------9----------11-------|

A|--------------------------------------------------------|

E|--------------------------------------------------------|



Therefore, before the explosion of the 1st chorus, the order is:

riff 1, riff 2, riff 2, riff 1 (this is symmetric!).



                  A  Bm  D  G

The heart is a bloom

       D                  A            

Shoots up through the stony ground

                 A  Bm  D  G

But there's no room

     D                A

No space to rent in this town

               A  Bm  D  G

You're out of luck

          D                  A

And the reason that you had to care

                 A  Bm  D  G

The traffic is stuck

                D           A

And you're not moving anywhere

                   A         Bm  D  G

You thought you'd found a friend

            D             A

To take you out of this place

            [ a - w - a - y ]*

          A   Bm    D     G

Someone you could lend a hand

      D         A

In return for grace

      [a - w - a - y]

                  A  Bm  D  G

It's a beautiful day

                 [ d - a - y ]

D                    A    

  Sky falls and you feel like

                  A  Bm  D  G

It's a beautiful day

                 [ d - a - y ]

       D           A

Don't let it get away







MAIN VERSE RIFF 3 ('You're on the road...')



    A     Bm   D           G        D          A

e|--------------------------------------------------------|

B|--------------------------------------------------------|

G|--------9----------9--------9--9-------11---------------|

D|--11---------12-------9--9--------9----------11---------|

A|--------------------------------------------------------|

E|--------------------------------------------------------|



MAIN VERSE RIFF 4 ('You're in the mud...'; 'You love this town...';

                   'You've been all...')



    A     Bm     D             G       D          A

e|--------------------------------------------------------|

B|--------------------------------------------------------|

G|--------9--11---------9--11-------9-------11------------|

D|--11-----------12------------9-------9----------11------|

A|--------------------------------------------------------|

E|--------------------------------------------------------|



So the 2nd main verse is: riff 3, riff 4, riff 4, riff 4. All right!



                A  Bm  D  G

You're on the road

            D         A

But you've got no destination

               A  Bm  D  G

You're in the mud

        D                A

In the maze of her imagination

            A  Bm  D  G

You love this town

D             A

Even if that doesn't ring true

        A   Bm  D      G

You've been all over

          D              A

And it's been all over you



                  A  Bm  D  G

It's a beautiful day

                 [ d - a - y ]

       D           A

Don't let it get away

                  A  Bm  D  G

It's a beautiful day

                 [ d - a - y ]

         D         A

Uhhhh Uhhhhhhh Uhh
