Coldplay - Glass of water Tabbed by Deluke Hey guys! I went through some of the tabs online and found that none of them actually displayed the sound of the song properly. So i did my own one and there you go! Don't get afraid of the chords. They're basically only little variations of D. Listen to the song to get a feeling for the strumming especially in the Verses where it's the same over and over again. I tried to match the Chords to the words the best i could. It seems very untidy at first but makes it much easier to play and sing along. Have fun!
