U2 - "Staring At The Sun" (Acoustic)
I had to update this tab, everyone was nice enough to give me a good rating.
I wanted to complete it as much as I could. Enjoy! Remember, this is from the
"Live Acoustic" version from Popmart Tour.
Tune down 1/2 Step!!!

Am Dsus2 x2
Am G F Em There's an insect in your ear, if you scratch it won't disappear Am G F Em Gonna itch and burn and sting, you want to see what the scratching brings Am G F Em Waves that leave me out of reach, breaking on your back like a beach Am G Will we ever live in peace? F G 'Cause those that can't do... often have to F G No, those that can't do... often have to preach C To the ones Am Starin' at the sun Dsus2 Afraid of what you'd find F You took a look inside C I'm not just deaf and dumb Am I'm starin' at the sun Dsus2 Not the only one F Who's happy to go blind
Am Dsus2 x2
Am G F Em Intransigence is all around, military still in town Am G F Em Armour plated suits and ties, Daddy just won't say goodbye Am G F Em Referee won't blow the whistle, God is good but will he listen Am G I'm nearly great but there's something missing F G I left it in the ... duty free F G But you never really belonged to me C I'm not the only one Am Starin' at the sun Dsus2 Afraid of what you'd find F As you step back inside C I'm sucking on my thumb Am Starin' at the sun Dsus2 I'm not the only one F Who's happy to go blind C Happy to go blind Am Happy to go blind Dsus2 Happy to go blind F Am I'm happy to go, happy to go, happy to go... blind
After the song, he comes in and does...
