U2
Where the Streets Have No Name (From the album "The Joshua Tree")
----- --- ------- ---- -- ----
These are the chords that you can use to make a nice acoustical version of
this song:
I want to run
D
I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls
That hold me inside
G
I want to reach out
Bm
And touch the flame
A
Where the streets have no name
Csus9
I want to feel, sunlight on my face
D
See that dust cloud disappear without a trace
G
I want to take shelter from the poison rain
Bm A
Where the streets have no name
Csus9

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you...
It's all I can do
The city's a flood
D
And our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled in dust
G
I'll show you a place
Bm
High on the desert plain
A
Where the streets have no name
Csus9
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Still building then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do
Our love turns to rust
D
And we're beaten and blown by the wind
G
Blown by the wind
Oh and I see love
D
See our love turn to rust
And we're beaten and blown by the wind
Blown by the wind
G
Oh when I go there
Bm
I go there with you
A
It's all I can do
D
