Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of (Acoustic)
-U2-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Robert Healy
Tuning: The original acoustic version uses Open E tuning (EBEG#Be) but if you
try to tune up to it without light gauge strings, you'll most likely break
them. It is best to tune to Open D (DADF#AD) and then Capo 2. I'm confident
that this is 100% correct.

Intro:
-------
VERSE 1
-------
I'm not afraid of anything in this world
There's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't already heard
I'm just trying to find a decent melody
A song that I can sing in my own company
I never thought you were a fool
But darling look at you
You gotta stand up straight
Carry your own weight
These tears are going nowhere baby
------
CHORUS
------
You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And now you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better
Now you're stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
-------
VERSE 2
-------
I will not forsake the colors that you bring
The nights you filled with fireworks they left you with nothing
I am still enchanted by the light you brought to me
I listen through your ears, through your eyes I can see
And you are such a fool
To worry like you do
I know it's tough
And you can never get enough
Of what you don't really need now, my oh my
-------
CHORUS
-------
You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
Oh love, look at you now
You've got yourself stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
------
BRIDGE
------
I was unconscious, half asleep
The water is warm 'til you discover how deep
I wasn't jumping, for me it was a fall
It's a long way down to nothing at all
------
CHORUS
------
You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better
Now you're stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it

And if the night runs over |
|
And if the day won't last |---- Play 2x
|
And if your way should falter |

Along the stormy pass ______|
It's just a moment
This time will pass
