Verse 1
  A         G                D
How long before I get in, before it starts, before I begin
  A         G                  D
How long before you decide, or before I know what it feels like
   A       G	  D
Where to, where do I go, if you never try then you'll never know
    A         G                     D
And how long do I have to climb up on this side of this mountain of mine

Riff: [Repeat Intro]

Verse 2
Look up, I look up at night, planets are moving at the speed of light
Climb up, up in the trees, every chance that you get, is a chance you seize
How long am I gonna stand, with my head stuck under the sand
I’ll start before I can stop, or before I see things the right way up

Pre-Chorus 1
G        A        Bm7
  And all that noise, all that sound
G        A         Bm7
  And all those places that I have found

Chorus 1
  G           Bm7        D/F#         G
And birds go flying at the speed of sound, to show you how it all began
G             Bm7             F#m           G
Birds keep flying from the underground and if you could see it then you'd understand
      F#m           G
Oh when you see it then you'll understand

Riff: [Repeat Intro]

Verse 3
Ideas that you'll never find, all the inventors could never design
All the buildings that you put up, of Japan and China were all lit up
The first sign that I couldn't read, all the light that I couldn't see
Some things you have to believe, but others are puzzles, puzzling me

Pre-Chorus 1 Chorus, 1 and Riff (As above)

Pre-Chorus 2
G      A            Bm7              E7
  All those signs, I knew what they meant, some things you can't invent
G      A         Bm7  E7
  Some get made, and some get sent Ooh
Chorus 2
G           Bm7          D/F#       G
Birds go flying at the speed of sound to show you how it all began
G             Bm7           F#m          G
Birds keep flying from the underground if you could see it then you'd understand
      F#m           G
Oh when you see it then you'll understand


Notes:
-	Coldplay plays Em7 instead of G, but I like the sound of G
-	They also play the chords up and down the neck using various chord voicings,
but the song sounds great if only played in the first position
