Twilight - U2
From 'Boy' © 1980 BPM: 140
Instruments are tuned down 1/2 step.
Chords are written as per normal fingering.
You'll have to tune down or adjust to play with the recording.
I'd recommend playing the plain B chords as B5 power chords, but not the B7sus4 chords.
The outro ends on an Em7 at the 12th fret.
