All I Want Is You tab? Help anyone?

[TheEdge25]

I've been looking for a good, simple, relatively easy guitar tab for All I Want Is You.


I was playing around and created a sort of tablature for just the very beginning part, goes like this.


e--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B-----------------2-------------2--------------------------------3---------------3
G-------------2-------------2-----------------2--------------2--------------2----
D--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A----0-----------------0-----------------0---------------0----------0----------
E--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


That part is very simple and actually sounds very very good. But the thing is is that I only have that part down. I'd like to find a tab, or some help from you guys, that is just as simple as this but still sounds very good.

I really want to get the guitar part right after Bono sings

"when all I want is you"

that distinct guitar sound that is heard throughout the rest of the song.


Anyone up to help a brother out?

I'd be glad to help you but I don't know it. I'm assuming you know the effects part but I'll say it. A Tube Screamer can really help with that sound. I guess this post is of no use huh?

just some pointers...

1. the main riff will need some delay and reverb:

e--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-2-2-0-0
b--2-2-0-2-2-0-2-0-2-3-3-3-3
g--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2
d--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-0-0-0-0
a--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--------
e----------------------------

2. Verse 2 begins with

e----5--5--5--5-
b--5--5--5--5---

3. End solo

e-17---17---17---17---17---17---17---17---17---17------17-
b---14---14---14---14---14---15---15---15---15---15-15----

e----17---17---17---17------17---17---17---17---17--------17-
b-14---14---14---14---14--14---15---15---15---15---15--15----

e-------17---17---17---17---17---17---17---17---17-
b-17-17---17---17---17---17---17---17---17---17----

e--------17------17------17------17------------
b--17-17---17-17---17-17---17-17---17-17-17----

e-20-------20------20------20------20------20-21-
b----17-17---17-17---17-17---17-17---17-17-------

then some A and D power chords on the 12th and 14th fret and burst back to the Chorus...

also "all the promises..."

e---2--2--2---2---2---2-- etc etc
b-2--2--2---3---3---3----


for the last part of the solo instead of:

e----20--20--20- etc etc
b-17--17---17---

you can do:

e----20---20---20- etc
b-19---19---19----

edge plays it that way live

I play it like this, so first drone note is open A, then open D (sounds better):

e--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B---------------2----------2------------------------3---------3----------------
G-----------2----------2----------2-------------2---------2---------2----------
D------------------------------------------0------------------------------------
A----0--------------------------------------------------------------------------
E--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

sometimes it goes like this:

e--------------------------------------------------------------0-----------------
B---------------2----------2------------------------3--------------3------------
G-----------2----------2----------2-------------2-------(2)-----------(2)------
D-------------------------------------------0-----------------------------------
A----0--------------------------------------------------------------------------
E--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then there is this part (basically just a B minor and a D major appregio):

e-----------------2------------------------2-------------------------------
B--------------------3------------------3------3---------------------------
G------------2---------2------------2-------------2----------------------- x2
D--------4-----------------------0-----------------------------------------
A-----4--------------------------------------------------------------------
E--------------------------------------------------------------------------


Then there's also this part:

e--------------------------------------------------------------------------
B------10----------10--------10------10-------10------10--------------
G-----------9----------9-------------------9---------9--------------------
D---------------0---------0--------0--------- 0--------0------0-----------
A-------------------------------------------------------------------------
E--------------------------------------------------------------------------

And also a part that goes like this:

e----------------------------------------------------------------------------
B------8---------8-------8------7-------7--------7------------------------
G----------9--------9--------------9--------9----------------------------
D-------------0------- 0-----0--------0-------0------0-------------------
A---------------------------------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Main riff is something like what mirrorballman posted, it's very easy to figure out.
Note that the parts I posted are not in order, but it's easy to figure out the order.
Don't forget the delay (~425ms).
