U2 - "Elevation" Tablature

Band - U2
Song - Elevation
Album - All That You Can't Leave Behind

I've tabbed this by listening to the album version of the song, I know that the single version is slightly different so some parts may vary.

Standard Tuning: E A D G B E

Play all of the song with heavy distortion to get best effect.

Into riff:

E --------------------------
B --------------------------
G --------------------------
D --------------------------
A --7--7--7--0--0--0--0--0--
E --------------------------

Intro after riff: E5 A5
B5 A5

Verse Chords: B5 A5 E5

Chorus Chords: E5 A5

Solo:

E --12--11--10-- x4

I don't know how to write out the rhythm for the solo but these are the notes so listen to the song to get the exact rhythm.

*That's the basics of the song but listen to the song for anything else I might have missed.*

Lyrics:

High, higher than the sun
You shoot me from a gun
I need you to elevate me here
At the corner of your lips
As the orbit of your hips
Eclipse, you elevate my soul

You've lost all self-control
Been living like a mole
Now going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation

A star lit up like a cigar
Strung out like a guitar
Maybe you could educate my mind
Explain all these controls
I can't sing but I've got soul
The goal is elevation

A mole, living in a whole
Digging up my soul
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation

Love, lift me out of these blues
Won't you tell me something true
I believe in you

A mole, living in a whole
Digging up my soul
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation

Elevation...
Elevation...
Elevation...
Elevation...
Elevation...
Elevation...
