GENERAL COMMENT: To make things easier I've moved all chords half a tone
                 down, so you should use a capo on the first barre to get
                 the original tone, unless otherwise specified.

                 Songs in <> brackets are not available.

 D
Zooropa... Vorsprung durch Technik
Zooropa... be all that you can be
 Em        C Em                 C
Be a winner, eat to get slimmer

Zooropa... a bluer kind of white
Zooropa... it could be yours tonight
We're mild and green, and squeaky clean

        (play intro chords again)

Zooropa... better by design
Zooropa... fly the friendly skies
Through appliance of science
We've got that ring of confidence....

Break: Play riff1. Silence. Play Riff 2 LOUD!

   D D4         D      D9        <----- This line is what
        And I have no compass           I call D(riff2)
   D D4         D      D9

        And I have no reasons
                D D4         D  D9
        No reasons to get back

And I have no religion
And I don't know what's what
And I don't know the limit
The limit of what we got

Get your head out of the mud baby
     Em      C                  D(riff2)
        Put flowers in the mud baby
Overground

No particular place names
No particular song
I've been hiding
What am I hiding from?

Zooropa... don't worry baby. It's gonna be alright
Zooropa... uncertainty... can be a guiding light 
Zooropa... I hear voices, ridiculous voices
Zooropa... in the slipstream
Zooropa... let's go, let's go... overground
Zooropa... take your head out of the mud baby

              Em                              C

Catching your bright blue eyes

In the freeze frame
 C                         G
I've seen them so many times
            Am              F
I feel like I must be your best friend
                C       G       Bb
You're looking fine, so fine, oh my,
                   F
Dressed up like a lovely day

Babyface, Babyface, cover girl with natural grace
           Dm           G         Dm       G
How could beauty be so kind to an ordinary guy?


Coming home late at night to turn you on
Checking out every frame I got slow motion on my side
Turning around and around with the sound and colour
Under my control
Round and around, going down, dressed up like a lovely day

Babyface, Babyface tin foil hair all tied up in lace
Babyface, Babyface bitter sweet girl won't you give me a taste
How could beauty be so kind to an ordinary guy?

Do do do... etc.

Babyface, Babyface, slow down child, let me untie your lace
Babyface, Babyface, open that door let me unpack my case
Babyface, Babyface you're everywhere child
You're all over the place
Babyface, Babyface, you're coming to me from outerspace
Hou could beauty be so kind to an ordinary guy?

        LEMON

Intro: Dm Bb Gm

 Dm     Bb                       Gm
Lemon, see through in the sunlight
           Dm    Bb                 Gm
She wore lemon, never in the daylight
                        Dm
She's gonna make you cry
              Bb                Gm
She's gonna make you whisper and moan
                Dm   Bb         Gm
But when you're dry, she draws water from a stone
 C                Gm            Bb
I feel like I'm slowly, slowly, slowly slipping under
 C                Gm            Bb
I feel like I'm holding onto nothing

She wore lemon to colour in the cold grey night
She had heaven and she held on so tight
A man makes a picture, a moving picture
Through light projected he can see himself up close
A man captures colour, a man likes to stare
He turns his money into light to look for her
And I feel like I'm drifting, drifting, drifting from the shore
And I feel like I'm swimming out to her

 F      C       Bb
Ohhhhhh.........................
 F      C               Bb
Midnight is where the day begins (x3)

Lemon, see through in the sunlight
A man builds a city with banks and cathedrals
A man melts the sand so he can
See the world outside			You're gonna meet her there
A man makes a car			She's your destination
And builds roads to run (them) on	You gotta get to her
A man dreams of leaving			She's imagination
But he always stays behind
And these are the days when our work has come assunder
And these are the days when we look for something other

Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins

A man makes a picture, a moving picture
Through light projected
He can see himself up close		Gotta meet her there
A man captures colour			She's your destination
A man likes to stare			There's no sleeping there
He turns his money into light		She's imagination
To look for her
She is the dreamer
She's imagination
Through the light projected
He can see himself up close

        STAY (FARAWAY, SO CLOSE!)

The chord which I have labeled 'D*' is basically a D chord
with a nice picking pattern which I try to get close to by
playing D7+ and plain D, as follows:

        E --x-x--x-x--2-----x-x--x-x--2---
        B --2-3--2-3--3-----2-3--2-3--3---
        G --2-2--2-2--2-----2-2--2-2--2---
        D ---h----h----------h----h-------
        A --------------------------------
        E --------------------------------

 D*                 Em
Green light, Seven Eleven
         G                      D*
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
                             Em
You don't smoke, don't even want to
   G                    D*
Hey now, check your change
                   Em
Dressed up like a car crash
      G                           D*
The wheels are turning but you're upside down


 Em                                  D*
You say when he hits you, you don't mind
 Em                                  D*
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
 Em   G              D*
  Is that what it is?

Red lights, grey morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depend's on who's around
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip synch to the talk shows


 Em                              F#m
And if you look, you look through me
                            G
And when you talk it's not to me
                                 A
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing


             G                Em                 D*
If I could stay... then the night would give you up
  G              Em                D*
Stay, and the day would keep its trust
  G              Em                D*
Stay, and the night would be enough

Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio
With satelite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans, London, Belfast and Berlin

And if you listen I can't call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout I'll only hear you

             G                Em                 D*
If I could stay... then the night would give you up
  G              Em                D*
Stay, and the day would keep its trust
 G              F#m
Stay with the demons you drowned
 G              A
Stay with the spirit I found
 G              Em          D*
Stay and the night would be enough

Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there's no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel hits the ground

        THE FIRST TIME

Bass line:      D-----4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5----
                A-----5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5----
                E----------------------------------------
                         (chord D)      (chord G)

First play the bass line vary softly, then gradually you can
start playing the chords right away.


  D           G   D                  G
I have a lover, a lover like no other
        D                        G
She got soul, soul, soul, sweet soul
        D                   G
And she teach me how to sing

  Bm                            G
Shows me colours when there's none to see
  Bm                  G
Gives me hope when I can't believe that
         D        G        D
For the first time I feel love


I have a brother, when I'm a brother in need
I spend my whole time running
He spends his running after me

When I feel myself goin' down
I just call and he comes around
But for the first time I feel love

My father is a rich man, he wears a rich man's cloak
Gave me the keys to his kingdom (coming)
Gave me a cup of gold

He said "I have many mansions, and there are many rooms to see"
But I left by the back door
And I threw away the key...

For the first time
For the first time
For the first time
I feel love

        DIRTY DAY

Here's the main riff first. I think the guitar is tuned down
1/2 step. The little fills in parenthesis are played only when
indicated.

 D     A           C     G

 (fill 1)---------I[fill 2]--------I
(7h8p7------------[5h6p5-----------I
 ------9)---------I------7]--------I
 0-0-0------------I----------------I
 ------0----------I3-3-3-----------I
 -----------------I------3---------I   


Intro: Main riff fades in. Synth plays a long sustained
       A note on top.

Verse 1 (w/main riff):

 D            A   C  G                        D       A  C  G
 I don't know you   ...and you don't know the half of it
 D       A             C  G                       D         A  C G
  I had a starring role  ...I was the bad guy who walked out
             D                 A     C    G
 They say be careful where you aim
                           D          A      C   G
 Because where you aim you just might hit
         D         A            C      G
 You can hold onto something so tight
                D       A    C   G
 You've already lost it
 D           A      C   G
 Dragging me down       That's not the way it
 D       A   C    G
 (w/fill 1)
 used to be
 D         A             C   G
 You can't even remember
          D            A   C  G
          (w/fills 1&2)
 What I'm trying to forget

(main riff twice w/distorted guitar chords+effects and fills 1&2)

Chorus (w/main riff):
 D  A          C     G
      It was a dirty day
 D  A          C     G
             A dirty day

(the riff once)

Verse 2 (w/riff)

 You want explanations... I don't even understand
 If you need someone to blame... throw a rock in the air
 and you'll hit someone guilty


D                    A/E  A
      From father to son
        Bm D       Gadd2 (?)
 In one life has begun
   Bm7               A
 A work that's never done
           D   A    C   G               D       A     C   G
 Father to son           (it won't last kissin' time)   

 (2x w/riff)
 D   A C G               D       A      C   G
(Love...   it won't last kissin' time)

Verse 3 (w/riff)

 Get it right, there's no blood thicker than ink
 Hear what I say, nothing's simple as you think

 Wake up, some things you can't get around
 I'm in you, more so when they put me in the ground

(main riff w/distorted guitar+effects & fills 1&2)
(repeat to the end)

Chorus:

(It was a dirty day
 A dirty day
 Hank says)
       D    A     C        G        D      A        C     G
 THESE DAYS DAYS DAYS RUN AWAY LIKE HORSES OVER THE HILLS 

 (repeat until fade)

**************************************************************

                THE WANDERER

 F
I went out walking through the streets paved with gold
 Bb
Lifted some stones, saw the skin and bones
      F
Of a city without a soul
I went out walking under an atomic sky
          Bb
Where the ground won't turn and the rain it burns
          F
Like the tears when I said goodbye


 Dm              Bb
Yeah I went with nothing
 F                         C
Nothing but the thought of you
                Dm-Bb-C-F
I went wandering

I went drifting through the capitals of tin
Where men can't walk or freely talk
And sons turn their fathers in
I stopped outside a church house
where the citizens like to sit
They say they want the kingdom
But they don't want God in it

I went out riding
Down that ol' eight lane
I passed by a thousand signs
Looking for my own name

I went with nothing
But the thought you'd be there too
Looking for you

I went out there in search of experience
To taste and to touch and to feel as much
As a man can before he repents

I went out searching, lookin' for one good man
A spirit who would not bend or break
Who would sit at his father's right hand
I went out walking with a bible and a gun
The word of God lay heavy on my heart
I was sure I was the one
Now Jesus, don't you wait up
Jesus, I'll be home soon
Yeah I went out for the papers
Told her I'd be back by noon

Yeah I left with nothing
But the thought you'd be there too
Looking for you...
Yeah I left with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you...
I went wandering
