**INTRO**
 
 D5 - x577xx  

 At the beginning of the song The Edge plays a D5 chord that he modifies with 
 his DigiTech "Whammy". So he can create this special sound. 
 If you haven't got a "Whammy" you can create a similar sound 
 with a small trick. 
 Play the Ab and the Db string together and repeat this 2 times, 
 then play the Gb string and the other 2 strings alternately.
 
 So, that's it, not very difficult.
