Don't Give Up-Live version

Live on  The Oprah Winfrey Show

[A]
Oh…um
Oh…um


In this proud land we grew up strong
We were wanted all along
I was taught to fight, taught to win
I never thought I could lose

No fight left or so it seems
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
Changed my face, changed my name
But no one wants you when you lose

[A]
Don't give up
'Cause you have friends
Don't give up
You're not beaten yet
Don't give up
’Cause somewhere there’s a place
Where we belong

Rest your head
You worry too much
It's gonna be alright
When times get rough
You can fall back on us
Don't give up
Please don't give up, yeah


Got to walk out of here ([A]yeah)
I can't take anymore
Gonna stand on that bridge
Keep my arms down below
What-[Both]ever may come
What-[Both]ever may go
That river's flowing
[Both]That river's flowing
[A]
Na-na-na...no


Though I saw it all around
Never thought I could be affected
Thought that we would be the last to go
Strange the way things turn

[A]
Don't give up
You still have us
Don't give up
We don't need much of anything..no no no
Don't give up
There’s no reason to feel ashamed
Don’t give up
You still, you still have us
I believe you and me
That somewhere
There’s a place…
Where we belong
Na-na-na…no

[Both]
Af-ri-ca...
Af-ri-ca...
Af-ri-ca...

I had the mp3 before I got  the video and would have never guessed Bono was using a teleprompter. No matter, it was excellent!

Some changes from the charity release, which Sony music was just offering again for 1.50 with 3 legal downloads.

Haven't heard anything. It would be cool, though.
