U2 ? The Ground Beneath Her Feet
(Words by S. Rushdi)
From the soundtrack to the Million Dollar Hotel.
Tabbed by Mark Jones 15/10/00.
This is my interpretation of the song based on Bono and The Edge's
acoustic performance on TFI Friday on St. Patricks Day 2000.
The chords required are:
Bm : 799777
F#m : 244222
G : 355433
A : 577655
This chord progression is used throughout the intro and verses:
Bm F#m G A
For the intro and first two verses I use this picking:
Bm F#m G A
E|-7--------0-|-2--------0-|-3--------0-|-5--------0-|
A|---9--------|---4--------|---5--------|---7--------|
D|-------9----|-------4----|-------5----|-------7----|
G|-------7----|-------2----|-------4----|-------6----|
B|-------7----|-------2----|-------3----|-------5----|
E|-------7----|-------2----|-------3----|-------5----|
^
On these bits start with the E string
And strum up towards the D.
And now for the song:
Verse 1: (pick chords)
Bm F#m G A
All my life I worshipped her
Bm F#m G A
Her golden voice, her beauties beat
Bm F#m G A
How she made us feel how she made me real
Chorus: (strum chords)
G F#m
And the ground beneath her feet
G A
And the ground beneath her feet
Verse 2: (pick chords ? lyric structure slightly more complicated)
Bm F#m G A Bm
Now I can't be sure, be sure of anything
F#m G A Bm
Black is white and cold is heat
F#m G A Bm F#m
For what I worshipped stole my love away
Chorus: (strum chords)
G F#m
It was the ground beneath her feet
G A
It was the ground beneath her feet
Middle 8: (Strum chords from here on in)
Bm F#m G A
Go lightly down your darkened way
Bm F#m G A
Go lightly on the ground
Bm F#m G A
I'll be down there in another day
G A
I won't rest until your found
Play middle 8 again, but replace words by do do do's
Outro:
Bm (strum once)
Let me love you
A (strum once)
Let me rescue you
G A
Let me take where two roads meet
Bm
And I'll come back above
A G F#m
when there is only love
G F#m
Only love
G A
Only love
Bm (strum once to end)
Only love
Hope you enjoy it. There are mp3's available on the web if you can't
