Coldplay - Amsterdam

Tab by Betazed

Standard Tuning
No Capo

There are already some good versions of Coldplay's Amsterdam, but I wanted to have 
a version that sounds better especially for plucking on acoustic guitars. 
I know that the "Fsus4-F"-sequence is mostly used, but I think it sounds better 
without the sus4, so I put the sus4 in brackets.

Intro: Eb Bb (Fsus4)-F Ab

Eb     Bb        F        Ab
  Come on, oh my star is fading.
Eb      Bb       F    Ab
  And I swerve out of control.
Eb   Bb              Ab
  If I, if I'd only waited.
Eb            Bb              F  Ab
  I'd not be stuck here in this hole.


Interlude
Eb   Bb   F    Ab |2x


Eb      Bb        F         Ab
  Come here, oh my star is fading. 
Eb      Bb      F      Ab
  And I swerve out of control.
Eb      Bb       F           Ab
  And I swear, I waited and waited.
Eb            Bb         F       Ab
  I've got to get out of this hole.



   Fadd9            Abmaj7
But time is on your side,
              Eb*   Bb*
It's on your side, now.
               Fadd9           Abmaj7
Not pushing you down, and all around
          Eb*        Bb*
It's no cause for concern.



Interlude
Eb   Bb   F    Ab |2x



Eb      Bb        F        Ab
   Come on, oh my star is fading
Eb       Bb       F          Ab
   And I see no change of release.
Eb        Bb        F           Ab
   And I know, I'm dead on the surface
Eb          Bb        F    Ab
   But am screaming underneath.



   Fadd9            Abmaj7
But time is on your side,
              Eb*   Bb*
It's on your side, now.
               Fadd9           Abmaj7
Not pushing you down, and all around
          Eb*        Bb*
It's no cause for concern.




Bridge

Fadd9* Abmaj7* Eb* Bb* |2x


             Fadd9*               Abmaj7*
Stuck on the end of this ball and chain.
               Eb*     Bb*
And I'm on my way back down again.
             Fadd9*             Abmaj7*
Stood on the edge, tied to the noose
              Eb* Bb*
Stick to the sto--mach.
                     Fadd9*                      Abmaj7*
You can say what you mean, but it won't change a thing
                 Eb* Bb*
I'm sick on the se--crets.
             Fadd9*            Abmaj7*
Stood on the edge, tied to the noose
             Eb*                 Bb*
- you came along and you cut me loose.



Fadd9 Abmaj7            Eb                  Bb
             You came along and you cut me loose
Fadd9 Abmaj7             Eb                 Bbsus2
             You came along and you cut me loose
