I can't remember if I have posted this already, but its a nice song to get you started if you are quite new to guitar, uses nice finger friendly chords.
First off here's the chords -
Am - x02210
Dsus2 - xx0230 (a D with open high E string)
Fmaj7 - x03210 OR X33210 if you prefer
G - 320003
C - x32010
Strum pattern. I try and mix it up but mainly use DDD UUD DD
That's about it, no need to go into much more detail. Just keep your strumming nice and fluid and sing along!U2 – ONE.

Did I ask too much more than a lot
Fmaj7 C

You Say Love is a temple, Love a higher law
C Am
Love is a temple, Love the higher law
C G
You ask me to enter, but then you make me crawl
Fmaj7
And I can't be holding on to what you got

once you get the strulling wright
greetz
I played this again last night. It sounds nice with this pattern -
D D UUD on each chord.
This is a slower strum, but fits the song ok
Try it for yourself and see
All the best

Warren Haynes does a fantastic solo acoustic version of this on his Live at Bonnaroo CD. Also a great acoustic version of the Eagles Wasted Time. Well worth checking out.
Steve
there's also a really nice johnny cash version of that song
it's a great song. thanks :)
"Trying is the first step towards failure."

Could someone send me the song? If you could my e-mail is [email protected] thank you
Mein Herz schlagt immer fur dich
from the tabs from this site
http://www.u2star.com/edgeworlda/achtung/One_tab.htm
the strumm pattern seem to be of
D U D U D U
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +
what do you all thinK?
I learnt it playing alongside the cd and I guess that there are at least two different strum options:
slow-strum: you can use a syncopayed strum like D /du/u/du (or also D/du/u/d as Matt suggested)
faster strum: including some sixtheen notes. I tend to play it D/ud/ud/udu or also D/D/ ud/udu
Matteo
For a nice variation, instead of playing the open g, move the suggested f maj 7 shape up 2 frets for a g voicing.
