        mattie c

        i usually play SHOUT with just two basic chords: D# and Cm… simply listen to the song because a few sections of the song stretch the D# out… you’ll figure it out in less than 2 takes! -mc

        : : new coldplay album

        follow me, there are two way to play that song
        #1 with capo on 2nd fret play G,D,Am
        #2 with standard tuning play A,E,Bm

        I think the #1 is the correct version, just hear it.

      Jafar Hassan

      I’m not sure what the last chord is, I’ll just call it G.
      verses… D, A, E, G(020032),
      chorus… G, E7, D, A x2
      there you go.

      1. Re: Coldplay: Amsterdam tabs!!!!
        michelle mac

        : actually ya’ll, the chords for the intro and verse are

        e flat (D#), b flat (A#), F, A flat (G#)

        then the chorus is:
        Fmaj9, a flat maj7, e flat, b flat

      Shiver

      I’m way too lazy to tab it… but here’s a simple guitar rendition

      Capo 1st fret
      verse: D A E G
      chorus/instrumental bridge/outro: E G D A
      with some little changes here and there
      i know its not much but it should get you by.

      1. Re: Coldplay-see you soon
        Simon

        I haven’t got the cd on me now, but i think the first few bars are simply derivatives of E major shapes slid up and down the board:
        0—0—0—0———
        0—0—0—0———
        1—2—4—8———
        1—4—6—9———
        x—x—x—x——— Hope this helps. By the way,
        could you let me know if you have the tab for careful where you stand. The best song they’ve done in my opinion. The chords are phenomenal!! Cheers Simon

      1. Re: badly drawn boy
        The tab for pissing in the wind

        It is C followed by Am followed by G followed by F.
        This is for the whole song.

        e.g

        C
        I’ve been pissing in the
        Am
        wind, I chanced a foolish
        G
        Grin and dribbled on my
        F
        Chin

        Glad to be of service

      1. Re: badly drawn boy
        Damon

        : give up!!!!!! i have searched every site on the net for chords for that song its impossible!

        If you can’t work out the chords to that song without a tab you should probably give up playing the guitar.

        lindsay

        : : could you please send tabs of "the shining" thankyou for your time.

        Here’s how I play it… I’m new at learning guitar and I’ve never written anything out for another person before, so I hope this is readable:
        x22100 =Em
        xx2120 =?
        …that’s the verse figure. Just follow his strumming pattern from the cd.
        Then for the chorus, you just have to add a few fingers to that pattern:
        x221002
        xx21203
        xx21202
        Basically, it’s just messing around with your pinky finger on the high E string so that it follows the chorus.
        The only thing I don’t get is how to play the transition parts (where he sings "…and suddenly you’re in love with everything…") If anyone can tell me how to play that bit I’d be extremely grateful.

        1. Coldplay: Don't Panic
          Scank Meister

          Really really easy:

          Verse:
          Am C F

          Chorus:

          Dm Am G

          (the F chord is played using xx3210 and xx3000, hammering between the two. I know that doesn’t make sense, but listen to it and you’ll see)

          The riffs are really easy too:

          E–5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-8-8-8———5————
          B————————————5-h-6—5-h-6-p-5–

          E——–5———–
          B–5-h-6—5-h-6-p-5

          the verse version uses :

          E-12–12–12–12–12–12–12–12—————-
          B—13–13–13–13–13–13–13–13–(slide down)_

          E——–5———————–5———–
          B–5-h-6—5-h-6-p-5——-5-h-6—5-h-6-p-5–

          The alternate versions of these riffs use:

          E——————15–15—15
          B-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5———12—12

          at the end. I’m sure, if you listen to it, you’ll know what I mean.

          It didn’t take long to work that out, so it might be a bit wrong in places, but we’ve played it in a gig and sounds the b******s. I strongly suggest you play the chords on acoustic and get a friend to play the solos, and just mong out on the vibes. Man.

          The timing’s not accurate, as it was not attempted.

          1. The tab is a bit la - la
            Scank Meister

            ell, it looked alright when I was typing it, but I think there is a difference in size ratio between the dashes and numbers.

            Let me iterate that in the riffs, two notes are NEVER played at the same time.

    This is a fantastic, massive site. Every tab i’ve ever wanted but couldn’t find is here. I thoroughly recommend it (the name is a bit odd, though – don’t know what’s up with that).
