Tabbed by BloodPheasant741 Hey folks. Glass of Water is one of my favorite Coldplay songs, but I was never satisfied with the sound of it on my guitar. While it was very good, I wanted the verse chords to sound exactly like that in the song. I messed around a bit, and then there it was: the perfect solution. This version sounds great in my opinion. Hope you all like it. ==== CHORDS ========= A (x02220@1) : x 0 2 2 2 0 Aadd9 (x02420@1) : x 0 2 2 0 0 AM7sus2 (AM7) : x 0 2 2 0 4 E (022100@1) : 0 2 2 1 0 0 G (320003@1) : 3 2 0 0 3 x G#sus4 (xx1124@1) : 4 4 x 1 3 x F#m (244222@1) : 2 4 4 2 2 x ===================== ==== VERSE ========= This is the way I play the verse.
