Coldplay - A Message "Accoustic Part" *please read first* Hi guys, tabbed this nice song of coldplay. This is tabbed out of a live version in japan 2003. My Tab is 100% correct. First of all you have to tune your thin E-string 4 halfsteps down to C, like this: E A D G B C If you wanna play the original song of the records, you will have to add a capo to the first fret. But know we will check the live version.
