U2 ? The Ground Beneath Her Feet (Words by S. Rushdi) From the soundtrack to the Million Dollar Hotel. Tabbed by Mark Jones 15/10/00. This is my interpretation of the song based on Bono and The Edge's acoustic performance on TFI Friday on St. Patricks Day 2000. The chords required are: Bm : 799777 F#m : 244222 G : 355433 A : 577655 This chord progression is used throughout the intro and verses: Bm F#m G A For the intro and first two verses I use this picking: Bm F#m G A E|-7--------0-|-2--------0-|-3--------0-|-5--------0-| A|---9--------|---4--------|---5--------|---7--------| D|-------9----|-------4----|-------5----|-------7----| G|-------7----|-------2----|-------4----|-------6----| B|-------7----|-------2----|-------3----|-------5----| E|-------7----|-------2----|-------3----|-------5----| ^ On these bits start with the E string And strum up towards the D.
