 Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of (Acoustic)
 -U2-

 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 

 Tabbed by: Robert Healy
 
 Tuning: The original acoustic version uses Open E tuning (EBEG#Be) but if you
 try to tune up to it without light gauge strings, you'll most likely break
 them. It is best to tune to Open D (DADF#AD) and then Capo 2. I'm confident
 that this is 100% correct.

 VERSE 1

 E       E/G#           A             E  
 I'm not afraid of anything in this world
         B               C#m                A               E    
 There's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't already heard
 E                  E/G#    A      E    
 I'm just trying to find a decent melody
   B               C#m        A         E 
 A song that I can sing in my own company
 
 C#m                         A  
 I never thought you were a fool
 F#                   A 
 But darling look at you
 C#m                 A      
 You gotta stand up straight
                C#m   
 Carry your own weight
                       B           
 These tears are going nowhere baby

 CHORUS

 E      E/G#    A              E    
 You've got to get yourself together
            B          C#m   
 You've got stuck in a moment
             A         E        
 And now you can't get out of it
 E     E/G#      A             E    
 Don't say that later will be better
            B          C#m   
 Now you're stuck in a moment
         A         E        
 And you can't get out of it

 VERSE 2

 E          E/G#           A             E   
 I will not forsake the colors that you bring
 B                          C#m            A               E    
 The nights you filled with fireworks they left you with nothing
 E          E/G#             A                    E 
 I am still enchanted by the light you brought to me
 B                     C#m      A                    E  
 I listen through your ears, through your eyes I can see
 
 C#m                A   
 And you are such a fool
 F#                  A 
 To worry like you do
 C#m              A 
 I know it's tough
                       C#m   
 And you can never get enough
                          B                 
 Of what you don't really need now, my oh my

 You've got to get yourself together

 You've got stuck in a moment

 And you can't get out of it
 
 E   E/G#  A          E  
 Oh love, look at you now
                     B          C#m   
 You've got yourself stuck in a moment
         A                E 
 And you can't get out of it

 BRIDGE

 ------
 

 F#m                           
 I was unconscious, half asleep
     A                                   E   
 The water is warm 'til you discover how deep
 F#m                                   
 I wasn't jumping, for me it was a fall
        A                              B 
 It's a long way down to nothing at all

 You've got to get yourself together
            B          C#m   
 You've got stuck in a moment
         A                E 
 And you can't get out of it
 E     E/G#     A             E     
 Don't say that later will be better
            B          C#m   
 Now you're stuck in a moment
         A                E 
 And you can't get out of it
