Zoo Station(live)
Intro- E------------------------ B------------------------ G------------------------ D------------------------ A------------------------ E--17s/-------3----5-----
Slide the note on the 17th fret all the way up the fretboard to the 3rd fret. However, while sliding it up the string, keep on picking it (quite quickly) with both up and down strokes and then play the 3rd and 5th fret notes. After playing this a couple of times play this- E----------------------------------------------------------------------------- B----------------------------------------------------------------------------- G-----------------------------------------------------------------------------etc D----------------------------------------------------------------------------- A----------------------------------------------------------------------------- E--17s/----3---5-----5--5---5---5---5---5--------17s/-------3--5----5---5---5-
Now for the nice riff that Edge plays (here and during the chorus). Form what I hear he picks 2 chords- (X X 12 9 10 12) and (X X 11 9 10 12). This will give you and idea of how to pick it-
E-------------------12-------------------12--------------------12------------- B-------10-----------------10-------------------10-------------------10-----10 G-------------9----------------------------------------------------------9---- D-12------------------------------12--------------------12-------------------- A----------------------------------------------------------------------------- E-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
E-------------------12------------------12-------------------12--------------- B--------10---------------10-------------------10-----------------10--------10 G----------------9--------------------------------------------------------9-- D11------------------------------11-------------------11---------------------- A----------------------------------------------------------------------------- E-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Play this riff a few times. I think Edge varies it a bit but that's the basic idea.
For the verses there isn't much guitar (mainly bass) but it sounds good to play palm muted power chords (of A G and D, which are the verse chords). That is, A (577xxx), G(355xxx) and D(10 12 12 X X X). Alternatively, you could play just the last note of the chords instead (on the big E string). Look to the other transcription for the chord changes. Also, listen for Edge playing the intro riff(the slide from the 17th fret) during the verses every now and then.
Just before Bono starts singing "It's alright, it's alright..." there is a pre-recorded synthesiser playing this-
E---17--17--17--17--17--17--17---15--15--15--15--15--15s/-- B---17--17--17--17--17--17--17---15--15--15--15--15--15s/-- X2 G---------------------------------------------------------- D---------------------------------------------------------- A---------------------------------------------------------- E----------------------------------------------------------
Then Edge plays and A power chord a few times (it sounds good if you play this bit with a wah-wah or something similar) - E------------------------------------------------ B--10--10--10--10--10--10--x--x--10--10--10--10-- G--9----9---9---9---9---9--x--x---9---9---9---9-- etc... D--7----7---7---7---7---7--x--x---7---7---7---7-- A------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------
Then the only other bit is the outro and it goes something like this-
E------------------------------------------------------------------ B---------------10----10----8--7--8-----10--10--10--10-----8--7--8- etc.. and finish G----------------9-----9----9--9--9------9---9---9---9-----9--9--9- on the A D----11--9---7---7--7--7-----------------7---7---7---7------------- power chord. A------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------
