Coldplay - 42
by The Black Key
Thats my first tab so please excuse any mistakes.
I also tabbed the singing part at the beginning and the end of the song.
For me it sounds correct, more or less. Listen to the song to play it the
right way.
Singing:
e|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----------------------------------------------------------------------| x2
D|----10-10-h11---10-10-h11-10---10-11-13-11-10-8-h10-------------------|
A|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
those who are dead....
after the second time play this:
e|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----11-10-8---------------11--11-11-11--13-11-10----------------------|
A|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
...oooh time is so short.....
e|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----10-h11-10-10-10-10----14----15---17-------------------------------|
A|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
there must be something more.
Then play the whole part again but this time the end is a bit different:
....
e|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------------10---12---13---15-13-12~----|
D|----10-h11-10-10-10-10--14---15---17----------------------------------|
A|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
there must be something more.....
Then actually the guitar part starts:
