Coldplay is a British alternative rock band formed in London in 1996. The band's singer/pianist Chris Martin, guitarist Jonny Buckland, bassist Guy Berryman and drummer Will Champion, met at University College London and came together from 1996 to 1998. During these two years, the band changed names from Pectoralz to Starfish and, finally, to Coldplay. Creative director and former manager Phil Harvey is often referred to as the fifth member by the band.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Band: Coldplay Song: Pour Me Album: None (Live Version) Words & Music: Guy Berrymen, Jon Buckland, Will Champion & Chris Martin From: Zachary E-mail: [email protected]
Note: Yeah, I know Coldplay don't really use Standard Tuning. But you can't say like that because in Parachutes album they don't use Standard Tuning but in A Rush Of Blood To The Head album they use Standard Tuning all the way.
Standard Tuning: EADGbe
Note: To tab this song is not easy, because Chris Martin sings with a "random vocals" (I think that's the right term, which means he sings sharp & shouting type of vocals & change his tone every now & then) that's making it confusing.
Chords Used:

Note: I can't hear any acoustic guitar in the song. The electric guitar is loud & it's tab all the way. So I put up chords.
Note: I can't get this part. Jonny was using tabs here. I believe he himself can't get the tune of Chris singing. Haha!
