If you are a guitar player,you will surely appreciate the files that I've produced. I've put together all of the files that are hanging 'round the Net containing chords and tabs for U2's songs and made them separate bye albums. Not all fo them are complete, but that depends on you sending me corrections and additions so that others can enjoy them! I've been on vacation the last couple of months, so these are the same versions I posted on December (except for War 0.3, which was never posted, I believe). All files have a name and a release number. Please distribute them. I will try to update these files next week, as I have some upcoming corrections: (1) "Some days..." in Zooropa (2) "Seconds" and "New Year's Day" in War (3) Whatever gets to me before next Wednesday! Enjoy and take care. -- Sergio Lucero Vera Las opiniones expresadas involucran a mi Alumno de Ingenieria Matematica universidad en la medida en que la presion Facultad de Cs.Fis. y Matematicas que recibe el estudiante promedio de Universidad de Chile Beaucheff afecta su manera de expresarse.

How to decipher my notation: top line is guitar type (if it is necessary to point out), 2nd line is lyrics, 3rd line is chord names, 4th is treble rhythm. Then the TAB, and under that is bass rhythm. You'll figure it out. Notation: s - sixteenth note e - eighth note q - quarter note h - half note w - whole note ^ - ties two note lengths together . - play note for one and a half times the value before it (just like a dot in standard notation) NOTE LENGTHS IN CAPITAL LETTERS MEAN REST FOR THAT VALUE OF TIME! / - slide up \ - slide down h - hammer-on p - pull-off (Acoustic guitar - let ring) A5 A A5 A e e e q q. e e q. q. q. e e e q q. e e h Q e e E---------|----------------|----------------|--------------------|-------------| B---------|----------------|----------------|--------------------|-------------| G---------|----------------|----------------|--------------------|-------------| D---11-12-|-12/14-14-14-12-|-11--11---11-12-|-12/14---14---14-12-|-11----11/12-| A-0-------|-0--------------|-(0)----0-------|-(0)---0----0-------|-(0)-0-------| E---------|----------------|----------------|--------------------|-------------| q. w h^e q. q q. q. h^e q.
