Here is Heartland by U2.
 
Intro:
 
Dm   Cno3/D  Dm
 
 
Dm               Cno3/D   Dm
See the sun rise over her skin
               Cno3/D  Dm
Don't change it
                 Cno3/D   Dm
See the sun rise over her skin
          Cno3/D  Bb/F                 C
Dawn changes      everything, everything
               Bb        F          C      Csus4   C
And the dealta sun burns bright and violent
 
 
Dm                   Cno3/D     Dm
Mississippi and the cotton wool heat,
               Cno3/D   Dm
Sixty-six the highway speaks
   Cno3/D  Bb/F               C
Of deserts dry, of cool green valleys
                Bb      F       C     Csus4   C  (Play to Chorus)
Gold and silver veins - shining cities
 
Chorus:
        Gm7       Bb
In this heartland
        F
In this heartland
        Gm7       Bb
In this heartland
F
Heaven knows this is a heartland
 
 
Dm               Cno3/D   Dm     Cno3/D
See the sun rise over her skin
 
Dm                   Cno3/D Dm     Cno3/D
She feels like water in my  hand
 
Dm                    Cno3/D           Dm
freeway like a river cuts through this land
                 Bb/F                C     Csus4
Into the side of love like a burning spear
C              Bb/F                   C    Csus4
And the poison rain brings a flood of fear
C                      Bb/F                C      Csus4
Through the ghostranch hills, Death Valley waters
C                Bb/F               C  Csus4   C
In the towers of steel, belief goes on and     on
 
Chorus

Good tab, helped me figure out what I wanted to do with this great song. However, I think the real guitar Dm chord they play is xx0235. I play it that way and I think it sounds better. Also, I play some of the Bb/F chords as 113311.

Thanks for this. For me the important chord is sixth fret.bflat,muted A, open D, G, finger F, bflat at the beginning
