| the city walls are all come down |
| the dust a smoke screen all around to see |
| faces ploughed like fields that once |

| Gii x x 0 0 3 3 (G, type 2) |
| But The Edge is probably playing the chorus this way |
| (esp. for intro of live version where it is arpeggio) |

| Now, the chords appear below the words. I suggest you use tab riff as shown |
| above for the main verse, but you can always try it with the chord |
| formations at the end of this file to get a more acoustic feel. |
| If you twist and turn away. |
| If you tear yourself in two again. |
| If I could, I would let it go. |
| If I could throw this lifeless |
| Leave this heart of clay, |
| I'd lead your heart away, |
| See you break, break away |
| (Here, suggested start jamming with regular A and D chords) |
| Hoo, hoo Hoo, hoo Hoo, hoo. |
| Hoo, hoo Hoo, hoo Hoo, hoo. |
| I'm wide awake. wide awake, |
| G E (Now switch back to chords from intro) |
| If you should ask then maybe |
| They tell you what I would say. |
| True colors fly in blue and black, |
| Bruised silken skies and burning flag. |
| Colors crash, collide in blood shot eyes. |
| A D (Once again, regular chords now) |
| Hoo, hoo Hoo, hoo Hoo, hoo. |
| If I could, you know I would. |
| If I could, I would let it go. |
