Chord diagram for G
Chord diagram for C
Chord diagram for D
      This is a really simple song if you just want to strum it, limited to basically two chords
In the concert they seem to play G# C#, so with a capo on first fret it becomes dead easy

Tryin to throw your arms around the world - U2
Capo 1

[Verse 1]
G                   C
Six o'clock in the morning                   
            G                C
You're the last to hear the warning
             G                    C               G    C
You've been trying to throw your arms around the world
               G               C
You've been falling off the sidewalk
      G                  C                    
Your lips move but you can't talk
 G                    C               G    C
Tryin' to throw your arms around the world

I'm gonna run to you...run to you...run to you.....woman be still

I'm gonna run to you...run to you...run to you...ya know that  I will   


[Verse 2]
G               C
Sunrise like a nosebleed
G                        C
Your head hurts and you can't breathe
          G                  C                G    C
You been tryin' to throw you arms around the world
 G            C
How far you gonna go
  G                  C
Before you lose your way back home?
             G                   C               G     C
You've been trying to throw your arms around the world

I'm gonna run to you...run to you...run to you ...you know that  I will


[Verse 3]
   G                 C
I dreamed that I saw Dali
         G           C      
With a supermarket trolley
         G                  C             G  C
He was trying to throw his arms around a girl
            G       C  
He took an open top beetle
             G       C
Through the eye of a needle
         G                  C               G    C
He was tryin' to throw his arms around the world


[Chorus]
           G            C            G         C            G    C G C   
I'm gonna run to you...run to you...run to you... woman be still
           G            C            G         C                   G   C G C
I'm gonna run to you...run to you...run to you... you know that I will

[Verse 4]
G                C
Nothin' much to say I guess
          G       C
Just the same as all the rest
       G                   C               G    C
Been trying to throw your arms around the world
  G             C
A woman needs a man
        G           C
Like a fish needs a bicycle
             G                   C                G    C
When you're tryin' to throw your arms around the world


[Chorus]
           G            C             G         C
I'm gonna run to you...run to you... run to you
           G            C             G         C
I'm gonna run to you...run to you... run to you
           G            C             G        
I'm gonna run to you...run to you... run to you 


[Outro]
 C        G    C G    C       G   C G
Woman be still.......woman I will
  C      G
Woman I will
