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.

Gtr I (CGDGBD) - low E down to C the A to G and the hi E down to D
This just a rough idea some bit am not clear of like the chorus but the chords sound correct to compensate to anything i cant hear!
Song is an open tuning of somekind. Sorry I dont do tab but I hope this helps people. If you listen carefully Chris plays the open C notes and G notes but the chord shapes are the same in the verses.

But that's all right, sometimes, sunlight comes streaming through the holes
