God Part II by U2, Transcribed by Richard Zangoli Another awesome U2 track which, I believe, in hindsight gave an early indication to the change in the U2 sound between Rattle and Hum and Achtung Baby. This is what I could come up with. I'll tab some of the bass for the intro verse. I think it's tuned down half a step. Bono starts singing somewhere here A------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E--5--5--5--5---5--5---5--5--5---5--5--5--5---5--5-5---5--5---5---5---5--5---5-- Don't believe in excess success...
