U2: Bullet the blue sky Tabbed by Lars Barstad (lapba@grm.hia.no). Most of this stuff is from the Joshua Tree version of the song, since a friend of mine has borrowed my song-book, everything is not 100%, but its a start at least! :) Will probably make a more accurate version when I get my book back!
