U2 - Gone

      
 
 I tabbed "Gone" by U2 from POP. These are just the chords. The chords
 from the other people don't seem entirely correct. Hence, I gave it a
 shot, and they are pretty close.
 As for the cool high-pitched guitar part, to play that, You need a
 slider and a delay pedal, and some sustainer. The beginning and other
 parts of the song are played with the sliderer up around the 22nd and
 24th frets (this may not actually be a fret on some guitar, but the
 slider will hit the notes) of the E and B strings (the bottom two).
 
 Here are my chords:
 
 OPENING: E
 
 VERSE: Em (well not really, Edge mutes the entire 12th fret in the
 verse on all the strings).
 
 PRE-CHORUS:
 G                           Em           C 
 Goodbye, You can keep this suit of lights
                      Am 
 I'll be up with the sun
 D                      Am 
 And I'm not coming down
 D                  Am 
 I'm not coming down
 D                  E 
 I'm not coming down
 
 Bridge (piano part)
      Em           Am 
 And I'm already gone
           Em            Am 
 Felt that way.... all along
 D                    Am 
 Closer to you every day
 D                               Am   
 I didn't want it that much any way...
 
 Rest in in Em, and the verse repeat and so on.
 Hope this is clear for you.

 Gone
 
 Music by U2
 Lyrics by Bono and The Edge
 Transcribed by Brandon Leniart <leniarbk@jmu.edu>
 
 This song is tuned 1/2 step down and also changes keys a few times.
 Another one of my personal theories is that Bono is singing this song to
 himself, and he's trying to deal with his success. Just a thought.
 
 this is actually what the riff sounds like:
 E 
  

 1----------------------<5>--
 2---<5>---------------------
 3-------------<3>-----------
 4---------------------------
 5---------------------------
 6---------------------------
 

 
 But since I know that riff is really tough to pull off, I've arranged an
 easier version to play (which is probably what Edge uses with an
 octaver and/or an effect that automatically produces harmonics):
 E 
  

 1----------10-----12--
 2---12----------------
 3---------------------
 4---------------------
 5---------------------
 6---------------------
 

 
 use these these in between lyrics in the verses:

 2---x-x-x-x-x-x-
 3---x-x-x-x-x-x-
 4---x-x-x-x-x-x-
 5---x-x-x-x-x-x-
 6---x-x-x-x-x-x-
 1---<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-
 2---<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-
 3---<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-
 4---<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-
 5---<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-
 6---<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-<12>-
 

 
 You get to feel so guilty, got so much for so little
 Then you find that feeling just won't go away
 You're holding on to every little thing so tightly
 Till there's nothing left for you anyway
 
 piano riff:
 G

                     Em 
 I'll be up with the sun
 
 D              Em  
 And not coming down
 
 D              Em  
 I'm not coming down
 
 D              E   
 I'm not coming down
 
 Em                                  
 You wanted to get somewhere so badly
 You had to lose yourself along the way
 You change a name, but that's OK, it's necessary
 And what you leave behind you don't miss anyway
 
 G                          Em            
 Goodbye, you can keep this suit of lights
                     Em   D              Em  
 I'll be up with the sun--I'm not coming down
 
 D              Em    D              E   
 I'm not coming down, I'm not coming down

 Felt that way all along
 
 D             G         D                        G     
 Closer to you everyday, didn't want it that much anyway
 
 Em                                          
 You're taking steps that make you feel dizzy
 Then you get to like the way it feels
 You hurt yourself, you hurt your lover
 Then you discover what you thought was freedom was just greed
 
 G                     Em       
 Goodbye, no emotional goodnight
 
                      Em 
 We'll be up with the sun
 
 D                     Em 
 Are you still holding on?
 
 D              Em  
 I'm not coming down
 
 D              E   
 I'm not coming down
