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.
