Coldplay es una banda británica de estilo Britpop/Rock alternativo. Se formó en 1998, y es conocida por sus letras suaves e introspectivas.
Los miembros de Coldplay se conocieron en la Universidad de Londres en septiembre de 1996. Primero se juntaron Martin y Buckland, y ya para el 8 de enero de 1998, Coldplay completó su formación, al unirse Will Champion. Él sabía tocar el piano, la guitarra y el bajo, y aunque no sabía tocar la batería, aprendió rápidamente.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
This isn't really a guitar song, but this is a good guide to what the piano is playing.
Chords defined: Low to high B7: x2120x Em: 022000 Am6: x32210 this could be called Am/C as well G: 320033 or 355433 (I think the latter, the bar chord, sounds better - relative to capo) D6: xx0432 D: xx0232
Capo 1
[Intro]

EmAm6GD6D
Here each chord is played the same amount of time (2 measures I think) except the D and D6, which are each played half as long as the other chords
[Bridge]
EmAm6G D But give me love over, love over, love over this ... our love EmAm6G D But give me love over, love over, love over this ... our love
AAmaj7 In my place, in my place were lines that I couldn't AE change, I was lost, oh yeah AAmaj7 I was lost, I was lost, crossed lines I shouldn't have AE crossed, I was lost, oh yeah

AAmaj7 In my place, in my place were lines that I couldn't AE change, I was lost, oh yeah EA Oh, yeah...
E (022100) I've named these weird chords as if they were G (055400) barre chords and they are basically the chords F# (044300) indicated only without the barre. F (033200) C (0,10,10,9,0,0) A (077600)
[Intro]
EGF#F
[Verse]
E, G, F#, F Where do we go? Nobody knows E, G, F#, F I've got to say I'm on my way down E, G, F#, F God, give me style and give me grace E, G, F#, F God put a smile upon my face
[Verse]
Where do we go to draw the line?
I've got to say I wasted all your time, but honey, honey.
Where do I go to fall from grace?
God put a smile upon your face, yeah.
[Chorus]
CGA Now when you work it out, I'm worse than you. CGA Yeah, when you work it out, I wanted to. CGA Now when we work out where to draw the line CGA Your guess is as good as mine.
Verses 3 & 4 (Same as 1 & 2)
[Coda] CGA As good as mine (Repeat)
Repeat Verse 1 and Finish on F
4. The Scientist
an incredibly simple but fantastic song to play on an acoustic guitar!
there seems to be a lot of confusion about the key of the song. it does state below that a capo is required but for those that don't have a capo i have taken the liberty of putting a set of chords on which do not require a capo and will allow you to play along with the cd.

[Verse]
AmC/G He said I'm gonna buy this place and burn it down. EmAm I'm gonna put it six feet underground. AmC/G He said I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall. EmAm Stand here beside me baby in the crumbling walls. AmC/G Oh I'm gonna buy this place and start a fire. EmAm Stand here until I fill all your hearts desires. AmC/G Because I'm gonna buy this place and see it burn. EmAm And do back the things it did to you in return.
Fmaj Huhuuuuuuh Huhuuuuuuuuuuuuh
[Pre-Chorus]
AmC/G He said I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war. EmAm If you can tell me something worth fighting for. AmC/G Oh and I'm goina buy this place is what I said. EmAm Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head.
[Chorus]
FmajD Honey, all the movements you're starting to make. DFmaj See me crumble and fall on my face. FmajD And I know the mistakes that I have made. DBbFmaj See it all disappear without trace.

[Pre-Chorus]
AmC/G So I'm goina buy a gun and start a war. EmAm If you can tell me something worth fighting for. AmC/G And I'm goina buy this place is what I said. EmAm Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head, oh to the head.

11. Amsterdam
Capo 1st fret
This is sorta a little "rendition" of the piano intro, listen to the song to get the timing right...
