Violet Hill by Coldplay STANDARD TUNING VERSE 1: C#m Was a long and dark December From the rooftops I remember A F#m There was snow, white snow C#m Clearly I remember from the windows A They were watching while we froze... F#m Down below CHORUS: A When the future's architectured B C#m By a carnival of idiots on show B You'd better lie low A Abm E C#m B C#m If you love me, won’t you let me know? VERSE 2: C#m Was a long and dark December When the banks became cathedrals A F#m And the fog became gone C#m Priest clutched onto bibles Hollowed out to fit their rifles A F#m And the cross was held aloft. CHORUS: A Bury me in armor B When I’m dead and hit the ground C#m B My love's opposed but unfolds A Abm E C#m B C#m If you love me, won’t you let me know?
