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.

Fsus2Dbsus2Absus4/Eb I used to roll the dice, Feel the AbFm fear in my enemy's eyes. FmDbsus2Absus4/Eb Listen as the crowd would sing,"Now the.. AbFm old king is dead! Long live the king!"
[verse 3]
FmDbsus2Absus4/Eb One minute I held the key, Next the AbFm walls were closed on me. FmDbsus2Absus4/Eb And I discovered that my castles stand, upon AbFm pillars of salt and pillars of sand.
[Chorus]
DbEbsus4 I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing, AbFm Roman Cavalry choirs are singing. DbEbsus4 Be my mirror, my sword and shield, AbFm My missionaries in a foreign field. DbEb For some reason I can't explain, Ab/CFm Once you go there was never, FmDbmaj7Eb7 Never an honest word. and Abmaj7Fm that was when I ruled the world.

FmDbsus2Absus4/Eb It was the wicked and wild wind, blew AbFm down the doors to let me in. FmDbsus2Absus4/Eb Shattered windows and the sound of drums, people AbFm couldn't believe what I'd become.
[verse 5]
FmDbEb Revolutionaries wait, for AbFm my head on a silver plate. FmDbsus2Absus4/Eb Just a puppet on a lonely string, oh AbFm who would ever want to be king?

DbEbsus4 I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing, AbFm Roman Cavalry choirs are singing. DbEbsus4 Be my mirror, my sword and shield, AbFm My missionaries in a foreign field. DbEb For some reason I can't explain, Ab/CFm I know Saint Peter won't call my name FmDbmaj7Eb7 Never an honest word. and Abmaj7Fm that was when I ruled the world.
