Does anyone know Edge's solo in the final verse of "Vertigo", played over the line "I can feel your love teching me how..."???? I can't seem to find a legit tab of it. Thanks!
 
This?

B------5-----5/3----------3--------3--------3--3-----0---3----3/5---5----5

B--10---12--------------13---12--10--12-----------------------------------

It sounds more like:

G------------------9------------9/7-----------7-----------

Not right for live version

I stand corrected - while my tabbed version sounds okay for the studio track, i am very much interested in hearing input regarding what edge is playing *LIVE* for the "Your love is teaching me. . ." part. Hopefully someone can correct me. Something doesn't sound right. Thanks all.
 
The new Vertigo Tour Chicago DVD shows Edge's hand on the fretboard at that point in the song, but it isn't totally in view (partially cropped off by the edge of the screen).

I'm trying to figure that section out myself. I'm sure the tabbed version mentioned above, which is also in the Tab book for the album, is the correct notes but not the correct form.

It kinda looks like he uses three (or two) chord formations and slides from one to the other picking certain strings. It appears to be a chord that looks like how you would play a F on the E, B, G, and D strings. For example:
Code:
E|-x
B|-1
G|-2
D|-3

I can't tell for sure, but it's a place to start.
 
I'd be interested in getting this little solo bit off as well. My band covers this song and I'm just not satisfied with what I'm doing for that part at the moment :|
 
Alright, i am heavily inebriated but i think i've figured this damn thing out (or i'm really drunk and out of tune but here goes):
