U2- Discotheque
POP

Intro:
You can reach.....
d|-------------------------
a|--2-2-0-2-0-2-2-0-2
e|--------------------------

Main Riff

a|-5----------7----------5--------------------
e|----7-5-7----7-5-7-----7-5-7--7-7-5-7


Bridge ( with delay )

e|---------------5-7-5

When Bono starts singing " Haaaaa, Haaaaaa" after the second bridge (
Just before BOOM CHA thing) I play:

The outro is the same thing as the intro.

It's not too hard. If you have questions, comments or improvments e-mail
me.

In this part I usually pick trough the Bm and E chords.
I'll try to figure out how it's done on the CD in the next time.

Now again the Bm and E stuff.


When I play the song I never use the same ending as on
the CD because I think it sounds not very good and I also
have no idea how I should play it with my guitar. I normally
let it fade out on Bm and E. You must try what kind of
ending is the best one for you.

Have fun
