U2 - Song For Someone (Songs of innocence)
Tabbed by Peter Kuijpers
Tuning: Half-step down (So becomes a )
You don't have to play the barre chords, but I think it sounds better.
If you only put your first finger on the low string (), you can play picking style like the original song as well.
Chords verse:
: X33010
(barre 3rd fret) : 022100
(barre 5th fret) : 022000
Chords chorus:
: X33010

You got a face not spoiled by beauty
I have some scars from where I've been
You've got eyes that can see right through me
You're not afraid of anything they've seen
I was told that I would feel nothing the first time
I don't know how these cuts heal
But in you I found a rhyme
If there is a light you can't always see
And there is a world we can't always be
If there is a dark that we shouldn't doubt
And there is a light, don't let it go out
And this is a song, song for someone
This is a song, song for someone
You let me in to a conversation
A conversation only we could make
You break and enter my imagination
Whatever's in there it's yours to take
I was told I'd feel nothing the first time
You were slow to heal but this could be the night
If there is a light you can't always see
And there is a world we can't always be
If there is a dark that we shouldn't doubt
And there is a light, don't let it go out
And this is a song, song for someone
This is a song, song for someone
Solo:
Final part:
And I'm a long long way from your Hill of Calvary
And I'm a long way from where I was and where I need to be
If there is a light you can't always see
And there is a world we can't always be
If there is a kiss I stole from your mouth
And there is a light, don't let it go out
