U2 is an Irish alternative rock band from Dublin formed in 1976. The group consists of Bono (lead vocals and rhythm guitar), the Edge (lead guitar, keyboards, and backing vocals), Adam Clayton (bass guitar), and Larry Mullen Jr. (drums and percussion). Initially rooted in post-punk, U2's musical style evolved throughout their career, yet has maintained an anthemic sound built on Bono's expressive vocals and the Edge's effects-based guitar textures.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Here's my working of the chords to U2's Wild Honey.
NOTE: I worked this out with a capo on the fifth fret of my guitar. I don't think it's it's played on the recording, but It soudn right, and it's easier to play!

D In the days
When we were swinging form the trees G I was a monkey D Stealing honey from a swarm of bees
D I could taste
I could taste you even then GD And I would chase you down the wind
BmGD You can go there if you please A Wild honey BmGD And if you go then go with me A Wild honey
- Play intro riff again -
D Did I know you
Did I know you even then G Before the clocks began time D Before the world was made
D From the cruel sun G You were sheltered D You were my shelter and my shade
BmGD If you go there with me A Wild honey BmGD You can do just what you please A Wild honey BmGD Yeah, just blowing in the breeze A Wild honey BmGDA Wild, wild, wi---ld
- Play intro riff again -
D I'm still standing
I'm still standing where you left me G Are you still growing wild D With everything tame around you
D I send you flowers
Could flowers thaw you heart G I know your garden is full D But is there sweetness at all?
BmGBm7 What is soul
Love me G Give me soul
BmGD If you go then go with me A Wild honey BmGD Won't you take me, take me please A Wild honey
BmGD Yeah, swinging through the trees A Wild honey BmGDA Wild, wild, wi---ld
