NUMB ---- U2 Here's the chord voicings for Numb. Mute the A string when playing the G chord by resting you index finger across it (which is on the big E string) mute the 3 high E, B and G strings throughout. Move your index finger up to the D string to play the C chord. Play each chord and damp it suddenly to get the right sound - you'll also need distorsion, flanger and phaser for the guitar effects.
