Note:
In verse 1, if you don't like using E/G# & Bm(add11), you can replace 
with E/G# to Em & Bm(add11) to Bm. They sound almost the same to me.
But I put them on so that those who don't know this chord can try them
out for their own study. 
 
Verse 1:

A    E/G#       Bm9(add11)
 Honey, you are a rock,

A  E/G#        Bm9(add11) 
 Upon which I stand,

A      E/G#        Bm9(add11) 
 And I come here to talk,

A     E/G#       Bm9(add11)  
 I hope you understand,

Note: Hate to see that Bmin(add11)? Change them to Bmin.

Pre Chorus:

Bm9(add11)
That green eyes,

          D             A
Yeah, the spotlight shines upon you,

Bm9(add11)      D A
And how could anybody deny you,

Note: About the Emin in the chorus... I'm not too sure, because it
      could be Db(something... I'm not sure, just check the 'Chords
      Used'). Maybe it's just base on how you sing or Chris Martin
      sing.

Chorus:

Bm9(add11)                 A
         I came here with a load,

                              Em9
         And it feels so much lighter,

               Bm9(add11)
         Now I met you,

                              A
         And honey you should know,

                            Em9  Bm9(add11)
         That I could never go on without you,

         Bm9(add11) 
         Green eyes,

Note: Same as Verse 1.

Verse 2:

A    E/G#          Bm9(add11)
 Honey, you are the sea,

A  E/G#    Bm9(add11)
 Upon which I flow,

A   E/G#         Bm9(add11)
 And I came here to talk,

A     E/G#        Bm9(add11) 
 I think you should know,

Note: The 2nd Pre Chorus sounds funny here is you play the guitar at 
      the Em. Maybe it is wrong or I'm not sure. Because Chris Martin
      sing more higher here.

Pre Chorus:

Bm9(add11)
That green eyes,

A                            Em9
You're the one that I wanted to find,

   Bm9(add11)            A
And anyone who tried to deny you,

                     Em9
Must be out of their mind,

Note: Same as the 1st Chorus.

Chorus:

Bm9(add11)                   A
           I came here with a load,

                                Em9
           And it feels so much lighter,

                 Bm9(add11)
           Now I met you,

                                A
           And honey you should know,

                              Em9  Bm9(add11)
           That I could never go on without you,

           Bm9(add11) 
           Green eyes,

           Bm9(add11)
           Green eyes,

                         A
           Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,

                         Em9
           Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,

                         A
           Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,

Ending:

       E/G#        Bm9(add11)
 Honey, you are a rock,

A  E/G#     Em9
 Upon which I stand,

Note: This is the best that I can figure out. Enjoy!
