Green light, Seven Eleven
                       You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
        You don't smoke, don't even want to
                      Hey now, check your change
     Dressed up like a car crash
                                The wheels are turning but you're upside down

( Edge plays arpeggiated chords)
                                  You say when he hits you, you don't mind
                                  Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
                 Is that what it is?

(Edge plays main riff)
Red lights, grey morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
vampire or a victim
It depends on who's around
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip synch to the talk shows

(Edge plays arpeggiated chords)
                              And if you look, you look through me
       And when you talk it's not to me
     And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing

                                       If I could stay... then the night would give you up
                                Stay, and the day would keep its [bad word]                               Stay, and the night would be enough

(Edge plays main riff)
Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio
With satellite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans, London, Belfast and Berlin

(Edge plays arpeggiated chords)
And if you listen I can't call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout I'll only hear you

                                       If I could stay... then the night would give you up
                                Stay, and the day would keep its [bad word]             Stay with the demons you drowned
              Stay with the spirit I found
                       Stay and the night would be enough

(Bono stops, Edge plays main riff)
Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there's no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an [bad word] to ground
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel hits the ground
