Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of
Music: U2
Transcribed: P Dagnall
This is a really nice tune, and good selection for a single. This transcription
is from the Irving Plaza club gig U2 did in November 2000.
Most of what Edge does on this song is played around the chords. There are a couple
of nice fills in the song too.
This is another of those tunes I know Edge won't play the same thing phrase after
phrase, so I've tried to tab as best I could from the MP3 of the song.
Intro: Useing the Chords of the song here E, A, B, C#m. Repeat this 2 times.

Verse: Again, similar to the intro, except pick through the notes of the chords
occasionally instead of strumming them.
Pre Chorus: Appregiated riff around the E chord.

Chorus: Follow the Intro again - but add a little more emphasis on the chords
and the pick through the B and C#m chords. Hold off on the last A, an E and then:

The second Pre Chorus has this added variation in the second section:
