• Song:

    Paradise

  • Artist:

    Coldplay

Tabbed by Blagoja Evkoski, March 2012.



Since I didn't find a version that is 100% correct, and I really love
Coldplay, I decided to submit my own version that is both simple and correct.
There are a lot of chord changes, but I hope that I got it right.

Gm C Dm F x3
Bb F C C x2



INTRO (CHORUS MELODY):

Gm Bb F C x4
