This song is tuned down 1/2 step and changes keys from E minor to E.
Much respect to fellow U2 transcriber Steve Palmer, who I think was
the first to have this song on a website.

But she thinks we're better off that way

The more you [G]take the less you feel

The less you [A]know the more you believe
The more you have the more it takes today

You got to give it [G]away [D][A5][Bm]

You got to give it [G]away[D][E][Bm]

You got to give it [G]away[D][A5][Bm]

[A5]She doesn't care what it's worth

She's living like it's the last night on [Em]earth

She's not wating on a saviour to come
She's at a bus-stop with the news of the world
And the sun, here it comes
She's not waiting for anyone

Slipping away, slip slide
The world turns and we get dizzy
Slipping away
She's living next week now
You know she's going t opay it back somehow

She [G]hasn't been to bed in a week

She'll be [A]dead soon, then she'll sleep

You got to give it [G]away[D][A5][Bm]

You got to give it [G]away[D][E][Bm]

You got to give it [G]away[D][A5][Bm]

[A5]She already knows it hurts
She's living like it's the last night on [Em]earth
Last night on earth
Last night on earth

i hope this doesn't look to complicated. the 3bp0 means:
-pick 3rd fret, bend and pull off to 0

verse:
[E] she feels the [D]ground is giving [E]way[D]
[E] but she thinks we're [D]better off that [E]way[D]
'the more you take the less you feel
the less you know the more you believe
the more you have the more it takes today'

chorus:
[G] you got to [D]give it away [A] [Bm]
[G] you got to [D]give it away[E][A]
