MLK
Music by U2
Lyrics by Bono
Transcribed by Brandon Leniart
This song really shows off Bono's vocal capabilities on
their 4th album, where Bono truly masters his Bono Vox, his
great voice. Since the song is just a vocal played over a
G chord, I tried to tab out his vocal line. If you want
it to sound a little different, you may want to bend on
some notes to give it a bluesy sound, or play it through
distortion to give it a Hendrix sound. Try to vibrate
the notes a little to make it sound better.
