Spanish Eyes by U2 Transcribed by Richard Zangoli (rzangoli@magna.com.au) This is my interpretation to the song. It is not hugely different to what is already on the Archive but I think it corrects a couple of mistakes. For the intro in the album version Edge ad libs with this riff- E--------------------------------------------------------- B----------15----------15-----------13-----------------13- G----14----------14-----------14---------------14--------- E---15--------------------- B---------13-----------13--- etc.. G----------------14---------- The verse chords are Dm and G and are played something like this- E---1---1---0h1---0---1--1--1--0h1--1--1--- B---3---3---3-3---3---3--3--3--3-3--3--3--- G---2---2---2-2---2---2--2--2--2-2--2--2--- D---0---0---0-0---0---0--0--0--0-0--0--0---- A---0---0---0-0---0---0--0--0--0-0--0--0--- E---0---0---0-0---0---0--0--0--0-0--0--0--- E--3--3--3----3----3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3 B--3--3--3-3--3--3-3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3 G--0--0--0-0--0--0-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0 D--0--0--0-0--0--0-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0 A--2--2--2-2--2--2-2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2 E--3--3--3-3--3--3-3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3 The chords for the chorus are F, C, Am and Em. In the live version of this song Edge plays them arpeggio, something like this- F Our love shines like E----------------1--------------1--------------1----------- B-------1--------------1-------------1--------------1------ G-----------2---------------2-------------2--------------2--- D----3------------------------------------------------------ C rain in those E-------------0-----------0-----------0------------0------- B------1----------1-----------1------------1------------1--- G---------0-----------0-----------0------------0------------ D----2------------------------------------------------------- Am Spanish eyes spanish E--------0-------------0-----------------0--------------- B-----------1---------------1-------------------1-------- G--2------------2-----------------2-------------------2--- D--2----------------------------------------------------- A--0------------------------------------------------------ Em Eyes....
