The Refugee U2
Chords: C (3), B, C C (3): 3 3 5 5 5 3 B: 1 1 3 3 3 1 C: x 3 2 0 1 0
There are "power-chord" versions of C and B here, too, used in the verse. I'll call it Riff 1 for the hell of it.
(C) (B) Riff 1: 1 1 3 x x x slide up to 3 3 5 x x x
(C) (Play parentheses palm-muted, then hit the chords and slide) E-x------------------------------------------ B-x------------------------------------------ G-x------------------------------------------ D--3->5--------------(3)-(3)-(3)-3->5--------- A--1->3--------------(1)-(1)-(1)-1->3--------- E --1->3--------------(1)-(1)-(1)-1->3---------
Bridge:
(C) (C) (B) (C) E---------------------------------- B--5-----5--5-5->3-3-->1---------- G-----5-----5-5->3-3---0---------- D-----------5-5->3-3-->2---------- A----------------------3---------- E---------------------------------
Easy, just play the barred C chord arpeggiated, hit the chord, slide down to B, hit it twice, then quickly switch to the regular C chord. I wish I could make it sound as simple on paper as it really is...
Here's the lyrics and the chords to go with them. * chords mean you don't have to play them if you don't want to, it sounds good either way. The album is w/out them.
The Refugee

She's the refugee
I see your face
I see you staring back at me
Oh oh

Her mama say one day (R1) She's gonna live in America
*(C) In the morning *(B) She is waiting *(C) Waiting for the ship to sail *(B) Sail away (R1) Oh oh (R1) Her papa go to war (R1) He gonna fight

She's a pretty face (R1) Born at the wrong time
In the wrong place (R1) Oh oh
She's a pretty face (R1) Her mama say one day

She come and keep you company
Oh oh
She's a refugee
Her mama say one day
She's gonna live in America
Outro continues the same...
