'cause no electric guitar yet
and it's one of my alltime favorites
Found this already but how does it goes on at the "woo hoo's...Let it go"?

I hope it works out for you. :)
 
Actually, the better way of playing "Part A" is by alternating between an A and Asus4 chord on the second fret. It's a more clear sound, and I am pretty sure it's the way the Edge plays it.
 
Looks good and will try it out this evening and let you know...
(Don't have a guitar here 'cause I'm at work)
A lot of thanks to both of you...
 
Tried it yesterday and went well...
But someone send me this one and it works better for me...
It's that hypnotising "Woo-hoo...Let it go" part...and sounds really good acoustic

Biggest problem to me is the change between the 1? and 2? part in my first mail...but practise will solve that problem
Thanks again to those who helped me out
