U2Mysterious Ways  (album: Achtung Baby (1991))

A                             D

Johnny took a walk with your sister the moon

        A                 E

Let her pale light in to fill up your room

A                               D

You’ve been living underground, eating from a can

A                                       E           A

You’ve been running away from what you don’t understand (love)

A              D

She’s slippy, you’re sliding down

She’ll be there when you hit the ground

A                      D                               C               G

It’s alright…it’s alright…it’s alright  She moves in mysterious ways(x2)

Johnny take a dive with your sister in the rain

Let her talk about the things you can’t explain

To touch is to heal, to hurt is to steal

If you want to kiss the sky

Better learn how to kneel (…on your knees boy!)

    A              D

She’s the wave, she turns the tide

She sees the man inside the child

[CHORUS]

It’s alright…it’s alright…it’s alright

Lift my days…light up my nights

Bridge:   Am                   D             Am

               One day you’ll look back and you’ll see

                              G               A

              Where you were held how by this love

                               D                                 C

              While you could stand there, And not move on this moment

              G

              Follow this feeling
