  (Strum that Cm chord to what sounds right.)
 Intro/Verse 1- play Main Riff 4 times.
I  never thought you were a fool
But  darling look at you
You  gotta stand up straight
 Carry your own weight
 These tears are going nowhere  baby
You've  got  to get  yourself together
 You've got stuck  in a moment
 And now you can't  get out  of it
Don't  say  that later  will be better
 Now you're stuck  in a moment
 And you can't  get out of it
 at the end of the chorus you hold the A, and then go to E Riff which looks like this

 I wasnt quite sure how to tab this part. it just goes pack and forth between those two
 chords but check out the video for the proper timing. this part is at 1:27
 play Main Riff twice
And  you are such a fool
To  worry like you do
I  know it's tough
 And you can never  get enough
 Of what you don't really need  now. My, oh my
You've  got  to get  yourself together
 You've got stuck  in a moment
 And now you can't  get out  of it
Don't  say  that later  will be better
 Now you're stuck  in a moment
 And you can't  get out of it
 Fm-this chord is held for a while before bono starts singing
 I was unconscious, half asleep
 A E-Edge does the same thing here as at the end
 the first chorus
 The water is warm 'til you discover how deep
I  wasn't jumping, for me it was a fall
 It's a long  way down to nothing at all
You've  got  to get  yourself together
 You've got stuck  in a moment
 And now you can't  get out  of it
Don't  say  that later  will be better
 Now you're stuck  in a moment
 And you can't  get out of it
And if  the night  runs over
And  if the day  won't last
And if  our way  should falter
Along  the stony pass
And if  the night  runs over
And  if the day  won't last
And if  our way  should falter
Along  the stony  pass... Its just a moment this time will pass
 thanks! please comment and give me feedback!
