Opening riff

edit

I believe its more sound to call the third chord an E minor 7 chord.

The current labeling G6 is inadequate because there is no B. It is very uncommon to find the third omitted from a 6 chord.

If it were labeled as an E minor 7 chord the fifth would be omitted, the fifth is not a necessary note in this chord.

I would be happy to elaborate further if you don't understand. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.243.119.250 (talk) 20:31, 9 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Provide a reliable source to verify your claims. The current information is sourced to the official music sheet as distributed by Universal Music. "Believing" or "thinking" that it is different is complete original research. Given that the current information is sourced to the official notation as provided by the record label, you will have a hell of a job proving otherwise.

2012 January 30 acoustic version

edit

To mark the 50th anniversary of the 1972 bloody Sunday, the band released via social media an acoustic version of the song performed by Bono and the Edge, with a new last verse: “Here at the murder scene / The virus of fiction, reality TV/ Why so many mothers cry/ Religion is the enemy of the Holy Spirit guide/ And the battle just begun/ Where is the victory Jesus won?”[1]
