That's basically it. Just remember to tune your guitar down a 1/2 step.

I also encourage playing along to the song to understand my tab.

Enjoy.

*All I Want Is You--This is in A, and it's tuned

town a 1/2 step. I didn't look at the solo you had, but

basically it's an octave above the beginning of the solo.

The 2 opening chords aren't A and D, it's really a D

variant, which is just D without fingering the F# on the

1st string, and leaving the 1st string open.

*All I Want Is You (Live)*

Transcribed by Gianluigi Bisleri(gluigibisleri@galactica.it)

Hey everyone!This is a tab of "All I want is you" as performed live by

U2 during their

great concert in Reggio Emilia,Italy.

INTRO: Bono begins without music,then Edge fades in with his

Stratocaster(capo on

the 2nd fret; tuning 1/2 step down; some delay )playing

this chords:

- A and D(this one without fingering the high E)during

the verse

- F# and D during the chorus

Then Edge plays his mini-solo:

e- - - - - - - - - - - - - -0-0-0-0- - - -
b- -2-2-0-2- -0-2-3-3-3-3-3- - - -          Then back again to the verse

and chorus.

For the final solo the one on the archive is O.K. ,you have only to

change the key(on that

version you don't use a capo on the 2nd fret).

U2 "All I Want is You"

Verses:

The verses/intro alternate with A and D chords

("You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold

You say you want your story to remain untold")

("All the promises we make, from the cradle to the grave...")

uses: F#m D

End chords:

[Am7] [and] [D7] Chords:

D x x 0 2 3 2

> > >with thumb...

>A///D///A///D/// play a couple of times...then

>Bmin///G///Bmin///G///

This should be F#m to D, but Bmin to G sounds pretty good. 8)

>finaly, that little riff that the edge plays after bono sings "all I want, is

>you" is just the first little riff with the ocassional sus2 chord thrown in.

>hopefully i'll have time to make a better transcription of this song sometime.

>it would sure help to have my guitar with me when I hear it next...

In order to play along with the song, use G, C, and Em, and capo on the

first fret....

(capo 1st fret)

You [G]say...you [C]want....

All the [Em]promises we [C]make

From the [Em]cradle to the [C]grave

When [G]All I [C]Want Is [G]You

(these are the same sounding chords to U2's "Numb" if you want to try a

weird cover version combining two songs)

I try to get by on Edge's riffs with something like:

-3-3-3-3-3-3--0-0-0-0-0-0---
-0-0-0-0-0-0--1-1-0-1-3-1---
-0-0-2-0-2-0--0-0-0-0-0-0---
-0-0-0-0-0-0--2-2-2-2-2-2---
----------------------------
----------------------------

The strings in the end use a G7, C, G, progression I believe.

From: "Ben Weiss"

I think U2 plays this in A, tuned down half a step. I use G because I

like the sound.

Ben

ALL I WANT IS YOU (U2)

INTRO: G (320033) C (x32010) (repeat)

For an intro riff, I alternate the second-string D and the

open G on the G chord, then the open high E and G of the C,

adding appropriate bass notes:

G (d"d" g"d" g"d" ) C (g"e" g"e" g"e" g") (repeat)

You [G]say you [C]want a [G]diamond on a ring of [C]gold

You [G]say you [C]want your [G]story to remain un[C]told

CHORUS: All the [Em]promises we've [C]made, from the [Em]cradle to the [C]grave

G C G (into intro riff)

When all I want is you

You say you'll give me a highway with no one on it

Treasure just to look upon it, all the riches in the night

You say you'll give me eyes on a moon of blindness

A river in a time of dryness, a harbor in the tempest

CHORUS

BRIDGE: All I want is you (falsetto, over intro riff)

You way you want our love to work out right

To last with me through the night

And you say you want a diamond on a ring of gold

Your story to remain untold, your love not to grow cold

CHORUS: But all the promises we break...

BRIDGE to fade

This should be F#m to D, but Bmin to G sounds pretty good. 8)
>finaly, that little riff that the edge plays after bono sings "all I want, is
>you" is just the first little riff with the ocassional sus2 chord thrown in.
>hopefully i'll have time to make a better transcription of this song sometime.
>it would sure help to have my guitar with me when I hear it next...
In order to play along with the song, use G, C, and Em, and capo on the
first fret....
(capo 1st fret)
You [G]say...you [C]want....
All the [Em]promises we [C]make
From the [Em]cradle to the [C]grave
When [G]All I [C]Want Is [G]You
(these are the same sounding chords to U2's "Numb" if you want to try a
weird cover version combining two songs)
I try to get by on Edge's riffs with something like:

The strings in the end use a G7, C, G, progression I believe.

I think U2 plays this in A, tuned down half a step.  I use G because I
like the sound.

ALL I WANT IS YOU (U2)
INTRO: G (320033) C (x32010) (repeat)
       For an intro riff, I alternate the second-string D and the
       open G on the G chord, then the open high E and G of the C,
       adding appropriate bass notes:
       G (d"d" g"d" g"d" ) C (g"e" g"e" g"e" g") (repeat)
You [G]say you [C]want a [G]diamond on a ring of [C]gold
You [G]say you [C]want your [G]story to remain un[C]told
CHORUS: All the [Em]promises we've [C]made, from the [Em]cradle to the [C]grave
             G     C       G (into intro riff)
        When all I want is you
You say you'll give me a highway with no one on it
Treasure just to look upon it, all the riches in the night
You say you'll give me eyes on a moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness, a harbor in the tempest
CHORUS
BRIDGE: All I want is you (falsetto, over intro riff)
You way you want our love to work out right
To last with me through the night
And you say you want a diamond on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold, your love not to grow cold
CHORUS: But all the promises we break...
BRIDGE to fade

All I Want Is You U2
