Looking at video taken during rehersals at Florida for ZooTv I think I've got most of it. Tune down half a step. The intro that was already in the archive is correct but live the Am and D are played barring the 5th and 10th frets: Intro1: Am D E---------------------|-------------------------------------- B---------------------|-------------------------------------- G-----7-5-h7p5h7p5----|-------------------------------------- D---------------------|--------12-10--h12p10h12p10----------- A---------------------|--------12-10--h12p10h12p10----------- E--/5-----------------|---/10-------------------------------- Fmaj7 G E----0-------0--------|-------------------------------------- B----1-3p1h3p1---3p1--|--------------3----------------------- G------2--------------|------5-4h5p4h5----------------------- D-3-------------------|-3/5--5-5----------------------------- A---------------------|-------------------------------------- E---------------------|-------------------------------------- After the slides is this bit.

Edge changed the sound of this part during the POPMART tour to a more Hammond organ type sound like that of the album version.

For the "love is a temple.." bit repeat the first bit of Fig.2 twice and for "..then you make me crawl" play something like this in a arpeggiated manner: Fig.4 E-------------------------------|------------------------------------ B-/3-3--3---3------3-3--3-3-3-3-|--1-1--1---1------1-1--1-1-1-1------ G-/4-4--5---4------4-4--5-4-5-4-|--2-2--3---2------2-2--3-2-3-2------ D-/5-5--5---5------5-5--5-5-5-5-|--3-3--3---3------3-3--3-3-3-3------ A-------------------------------|------------------------------------ E-------------------------------|------------------------------------ Just after Bono sing "...when all you got is hurt" Fig.4 is played about 12 times. Fig.5 E-/12-----12--12--12--12--12-12--13-12--| B-/13-----13--13--13--13--13-13---------| G-/12-----12--12--12--12--12-12---------| D---------------------------------------| A---------------------------------------| E---------------------------------------| This is the first solo at the end as played on the album too, sustain notes as much as possible.

Tip: Bar the E, B and G strings at the 12th fret. Fig.7 E-15---------------------------------------------15-------15- B------13-12-13-12-13-12---------------12--12h13----12h13---- G-------------------------14----12-14------------------------ D------------------------------------------------------------ A------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------ E-------------------15------------------------------ B-12-------------12----13--12----------------------- G-----14---12-14------------------------------------ D--------------------------------------------------- A--------------------------------------------------- E--------------------------------------------------- Ad lib with Fig.7 then go back to Fig.6 right at the end. So there you go, it's a truely great live song but very hard to recreate since Edge uses at least 4 different guitar sounds throughout the song. Anyway, hope you enjoy it. jules. jules153@hotmail.com U2 ONE (BASS TAB) ----------------- steve palmer - am560@freenet.carleton.ca The bass doesn't come in until Bono sings the first line of the second verse: 'did i disappoint you...'

This requires a strong pinky finger for the hammer-ons and pull-offs. I can't remember the symbols you used, so here are mine: > -hammer on< -pull off \ -slide First, form an open A minor chord. Am D E---------0--------0--------|------------------------------------------B-----1---1--3<1>3<1----3<1-|------------------------------------------G-0>2--------2--------------|-----7-5>7<5-7---5>7<5--------------------D---------------------------|-----7-5>7<5-7---5>7<5--------------------A-----0---------------------|-3\5--------------------------------------E---------------------------|------------------------------------------ ...Play a normal open F chord, omitting the first-fretted note on the high E. For the G, simply slide your F chord up two frets to a G position. For the Am,F, and G chords, all the hammer-ons and pull-offs should be done with your pinky. For the D, use your fourth finger. and bar the two hammered and pulled notes. F G E----0-------0--------|-------------------------------------- B----1-3<1>3<1---3<1--|--------------3----------------------- G------2--------------|------5-4>5<4>5----------------------- D-3-------------------|-3\5--5-5----------------------------- A---------------------|-------------------------------------- E---------------------|-------------------------------------- The Hammer-ons and pull-offs are pretty much the same for the chorus... (the C, Am, F part). I would draw it out, but the Am and F have essentially already been shown. Write me any problems you have with this version. It's hard trying to illustrate on the computer. michael.hong@utoronto.ca "One"-intro (Live) This is the way i play the live version of U2's "One" intro....at least i'll try to illustrate it....quite hard to show it on the computer...but i'll give it a shot..... Intro: Am E----0--------------------------------- B----1-->3------------------------------ G----2--------------------------------- D----2--------------------------------- A----------0--------------------------- E-------------------------------------- Hit the open A-chord, then play the Am in almost arpeggio-style, but strum them at the same time. Then use your pinky-finger to hammer the 3'd fret on the B string. Then try this...: Form a barre chord...something like this:Slide from the Am-chord up till the formation below. You can ofcourse barre the whole 5'th fret..as shown in the ()'s Hammer between the 7'th and the 5'th fret at the G-string (Listen to the song if you don't know what i mean) This is very difficult to illustrate.......¶:-) E---------------(5)--------------- B---------------(5)--------------- G---------------(5)-<-7----------- D---------------(5)---7----------- A---------------(5)--------------- E---------------(5)--------------- Then "slide" back to something like this: Strum,(and pick),the D,G,and B strings at 5th fret, then hammer from the 5th fret to the 3th fret on the B-string. Then play this: (Listen to the song, and you'll know what i mean.) >From the 5th fret to the 4th fret on the G-string E---------------------------------- B-------3-<-5---------------------- <---Play this string before the (G) G-------4-<-5---------------------- string. D-----------5---------------------- A---------------------------------- E---------------------------------- Continue this until the chorus: "You say...one love.." (Chords for the chorus below) Chorus chords are: C(Hammer the the 3th fret on the B-string) Am F(Hammer the the 3th fret on the B-string) C But when Bono sings: "If you don't care for it...", The Edge plays something that i don't know how to play...and he has got a whole lotta more effects then i have, too, so..... :-) So this is about it....please email me with any suggestions,remarks,questions (i'll try to answer) I use the Zoom505 for all the U2 songs i play. Hope you like it! jonivar@kolstad.no
