Note: Yeah, I know Coldplay don't really use Standard Tuning. But you
can't say like that because in Parachutes album they don't use
Standard Tuning but in A Rush Of Blood To The Head album they
use Standard Tuning all the way.

Standard Tuning: EADGbe
Note: To tab this song is not easy, because Chris Martin sings with a
"random vocals"(I think that's the right term, which means he
sings sharp & shouting type of vocals & change his tone every
now & then) that's making it confusing.

Note: I can't hear any acoustic guitar in the song. The electric guitar
is loud & it's tab all the way. So I put up chords.
