BAND: Coldplay SONG: Green Eyes ALBUM: A Rush of Blood to the Head (SORT OF) TABBED BY: David L. E-MAIL: regante@yahoo.com This is my first tab, and it's mostly based on another tab that, to my chagrin, I can't anymore. Thus, I cannot claim that this tab is my own, though I did make some to it. This is not how the song is played by the band, but it sounds very good for a acoustic rendition. All comments, corrections, whimsical musings, etc. are welcome! ==== TUNING ==== CAPO 2 | D | | B | | G | | D | | A | | E | The high E string should be tuned down a full step, so it is the same as the third fret the B string. ==== CHORDS ==== G6 Dadd9 Am C/D C F7M -----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----| -----3-----3-----1-----1-----1-----1-----| -----0-----2-----2-----0-----0-----2-----| -----0-----0-----2-----0-----2-----3-----| -----1-----0-----0-----0-----3-----0-----| -----2-----1-----------------0-----------| The strumming pattern is very simple, and is best acquired from listening to the song trying to play along with it. Roughly speaking, in most cases it's something like this: ----------------------------------------- G6 Dadd9 Am C/D D-DU UDU D-DU UDU D-DU UDU UDU UDU ----------------------------------------- And no, those aren't protons and neutrons, they're strokes. (Smile if you get that!) ==== SONG ==== [ Remember Capo 2! ] // VERSE 1 // G6 Dadd9 Am C/D Honey, you are a rock G6 Dadd9 Am C/D Upon which I stand, G6 Dadd9 Am C/D And I come here to talk, G6 Dadd9 Am C/D I hope you under - stand. // CHORUS 1 // Am C The green eyes, yeah the spotlight G6 Dadd9 Shines upon you.
