Elevation (Live From Berlin, Nov. 13, 2018) (Digital U2.com)
Are you ready to get elevated?
Loved and hated?
Infatuated? Infuriated?
Are you ready to get high?
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
High, higher than the sun
You shoot me from a gun
I need you to elevate me here
From the corner of your lips
As the orbit of your hips, eclipse
You elevate my soul
Got no self-control
Digging like a mole now
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I could fly
So high, elevation
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
A star, you look like a cigar
Strung out like a guitar
Maybe you can educate my mind
Explain all these controls
Can’t sing but I got soul
The goal is elevation
A mole digging in a hole
Digging up my soul now
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I could fly
So high, elevation
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
Berlin
Love, lift us up out of these blues
Won’t you tell us something true
We believe in you
(Yes we do)
A mole digging in a hole
Digging up my soul now
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I could fly
So high, elevation
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh

Vertigo (Live From Berlin, Nov. 13, 2018) (Digital U2,com)
Oh yeah
Anyone here ready to walk some Spanish down the hall?
Wanna walk some Spanish down the hall?
Wanna walk some Spanish down the hall?
Uno, (dos, tres, catorce)
Lights go down it’s dark
The jungle is your head
Can’t rule your heart
A feeling so much stronger than
A thought your eyes are wide and
Though your soul, it can’t be bought
Your mind can wander
Hello, hello
Hola
At a place called Vertigo
Dond' esta
It's everything I wish I didn't know
You give me something I can feel
Feel
The night is full of holes
As bullets rip the sky
Of ink with gold
They sparkle as the boys play rock and roll
They know that they can't dance
At least they know
I can't stand the beats
I'm asking for the check
Girl with crimson nails
Has Jesus 'round her neck
Swinging to the music
Swinging to the music
Oh–oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh
Hello, hello
Hola
At a place called Vertigo
Dond' esta
It's everything I wish I didn't know
Except you, give me something I can feel
Shark baited
Miles of fun
Well this man isn't mad at all
All of this, all of this can be yours
All of this, all of this can be yours
All of this, all of this can be yours
Just give me what I want
And no one... gets...hurt
Hello, hello
Hola
At a place called Vertigo
Dond' esta
Lights go down and all I know
You give me something
I can feel your love teaching me how
Your love is teaching me how...
How to kneel, uh
How to kneel
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Jean Genie lives on his back
Jean Genie don't look back
Outrageous screams and she bawls
Jean genie let yourself go...home
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
All of this can be yours

Even Better Than The Real Thing (Live From Berlin, Nov. 13, 2018) (Digital U2.com)
“You're Paul from number 10. “
And you go, what? Paul? Paul is dead. I don't know who you're talking about.
I'm fuckin' Bono. Sir fuckin' Bono. The Edge, Larry, Lord Adam Clayton.
And we're the greatest rock 'n' roll band on the north side of Dublin.
Yeah, oh yeah
Give me one more chance
And you’ll be satisfied
Give me two more chances
You won’t be denied
Well my heart is where it’s always been
My head is somewhere in between
Give me one more chance
Let me be your lover tonight
You’re the real thing
Yeah, the real thing
You’re the real thing
Even better than the real thing
Child
Give me one last chance
And I’m gonna make you sing
Give me half a chance
To ride on the waves that you bring
Well you’re honey child to a swarm of bees
Gonna blow right through you like a breeze
Give me one last dance
We’ll slide down the surface of things
You’re the real thing
Yeah, the real thing
You’re the real thing
Even better than the real thing
Even better than the real thing
Child
Greatest sound in the world, still those voices in your head
Telling you you're nothing, telling you you're no one
Then you look around and you see Adam Clayton
Look at him
You see The Edge and he's someone
And you feel Larry Mullen Junior and you know
The truth is not far from here
But while we wait for it to arrive
Might we agree on our drug of choice
Alcohol? Chemicals? Has been
The Holy Spirit? I hope so
But tonight, for sure it is you, it is you
You take us higher
You take us higher
You take us higher
You take us higher
Even better than the real thing
Even better than the real thing
Even better than the real thing
Even better than the real thing
Child
All of this can be yours

Acrobat (Live from Berlin, Nov. 13, 2018) (Digital U2.com)
Don't believe what you hear
Don't believe what you see...ah
Don’t believe what you hear
Don’t believe what you see
If you just close your eyes
You can feel the enemy
When I first met you girl
You had fire in your soul
What happened to your face
Of melting snow
Now it looks like this
You can swallow
You can spit
You can throw it up
Or choke on it
And you can dream
So dream out loud
You know that your time is coming ‘round
Don’t let the bastards grind you down
Oh, oh
No, nothing makes sense
Nothing seems to fit
I know you’d hit out
If you only knew who to hit
I’d join the movement
If there was one I could believe in
Yeah, I’d break bread and wine
If there was a church I could receive in
‘Cause I need it now
To take the cup
Fill it up
Drink it slow
Can’t let you go
I must be an acrobat
To talk like this
And act like that
And you can dream
So dream out loud
But don’t let the bastards grind you down
Wo-wo, baby
What are we going to do now it’s all been said
No new ideas in the house and every book has been read
And I must be an acrobat
To talk like this
And act like that
And you can dream
So dream out loud
You can find
Your own way out
And you can build
I can will
And you can call
I can’t wait until
And you can stash
And you can seize
But in dreams begin
Responsibilities
And I can love
I can love
I know that our time is coming ‘round
Don’t let the bastards grind you down
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

You're The Best Thing About Me (Live From Berlin, Nov. 13, 2018) (Digital U2.com)
Hello, darling
Hello, it's me again
I'm calling from the last night of the tour
It's amazing, yeah, people just came back
From all over the world they just came back
Crazy U2 fans
Sorry to be talking about our love in front of other people, you know
But I guess that's what happens when you fall in love with a showman
Funny, today, in the room in the hotel
I looked at my face in the mirror and I saw his face
I saw my father's face...I kinda got a fright
When I realized that he was a showman, too
And I'd watched him putting on and off his makeup as a child
And I know he loved you
And now I finally know and understand that he loved me
Thanks for sticking with me
I love you
When you look so good
The pain in your face doesn’t show
When you look so good
Baby you don’t even know
When the world is ours
But the world is not your kind of thing
Full of shooting stars
Brighter as they’re vanishing
Oh you’ve seen enough
To know it’s children who teach
You’re still free enough
To wake up on a bed or a beach
You’re the best thing about me
The best thing ever happened a boy
You’re the best thing about me
I’m the kind of trouble that you enjoy
You’re the best thing about me
The best thing easy to destroy
You’re the best thing about me
Best thing
I've been crying out
How bad can a good time be
Shooting off my mouth
That’s another great thing about me
I have everything
But I feel like nothing at all
There’s no risky thing
For a man who’s determined to fall
Sing with us
You’re the best thing about me
The best thing ever happened a boy
You’re the best thing about me
I’m the kind of trouble that you enjoy
You’re the best thing about me
The best thing easy to destroy
If you’re the best thing about me
Why am I?
Why am I walking away? Walking away
Why am I walking away? Oh
I can see it all so clearly
I can see what you can’t see
I can see you love her loudly
When she needs you quietly
You’re the best thing about me
The best thing easy to destroy
If you’re the best thing about me
Why am I?
Why am I walking away? Walking away
Why am I walking away?
Why are you walking away?
Adam Clayton, first manager of U2
First to believe we could be here tonight
That's Larry Mullen Junior right there
He started this band, blame him
Never played better
