Subject: U2: Where the Streets Have No Name chords


U2

Where the Streets Have No Name  (From the album "The Joshua Tree")
----- --- ------- ---- -- ----

 These are the chords that you can use to make a nice acoustical version of
 this song:

I want to run
D

I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls
That hold me inside
 	     G

I want to reach out
                Bm

And touch the flame
              A

Where the streets have no name
          Csus9


I want to feel, sunlight on my face
D

See that dust cloud disappear without a trace
				        G

I want to take shelter from the poison rain
               Bm		       A

Where the streets have no name
          Csus9

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you...
It's all I can do

The city's a flood
D

And our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled in dust
         G

I'll show you a place
	        Bm

High on the desert plain
   	       A

Where the streets have no name
          Csus9


Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Still building then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do

Our love turns to rust
D

And we're beaten and blown by the wind
                     G

Blown by the wind

Oh and I see love
             D

See our love turn to rust

And we're beaten and blown by the wind

Blown by the wind
    G

Oh when I go there 
         Bm

I go there with you
            A

It's all I can do
               D
