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



VERSE 1:

Dm                  Bb
When she was just a girl
F                C
She expected the world
       Dm                 Bb
But it flew away from her reach
       F               C
so she ran away in her sleep and dreamed of
Gm     Bb           F       C
Para-para-paradise, Para-para-paradise
Gm     Bb           F              C
Para-para-paradise, every time she closed her eyes

VERSE 2: 

Bb                  Dm
When she was just a girl
Dm               C
She expected the world
       Bb                 Dm
But it flew away from her reach
        Dm                   C
and the bullets catch in her teeth
Gm               Bb
Life goes on, it gets so heavy
    F                C
The wheel breaks the butterfly
Bb           F
Every tear a waterfall
       Bb               F                    C
In the night the stormy night she closed her eyes
       Bb               F              C
In the night the stormy night away she flies, and dreams of

lalalalala lalalalala lalalalalala



BRIDGE:

       Bb         F                  C
And so lying underneath those stormy skies
          Bb        F             C
She said "Oh, ohohohoh I know the sun must set to rise"

Para-para-paradise
Gm     Bb
Para-para-paradise
F           C
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh

P.S. The only thing I'm not sure about is this piano ending, but I hope that it is 
quite close. Enjoy!
