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.

TUNING: E-A-D-G-C#-C# (100% correct)
TIP 1: You can try to play it with the standard tuning - sound will not be the same, but still quite good. TIP 2: Use your thumb to press 6th string on most of the chords.
