Hi there, this is the original way Chris plays the song on the guitar. At least in the AOL sessions from 2003. Since I dont know the name of the chords I will give you them here for the beginning, sorry for that... Figured the chords out from the Session at AOL of the song (search on youtube "Warning Sign - Coldplay Live Sessions @ AOL", gorgeous 240p video!) garvmg from coldplaying.com helped me with the guitar tuning! Tune your guitar the following: EADGBD (high e string 2 steps down from E to D) Capo 2nd fret! Start: C 3.3.2.0.1.0 C# 3.3.0.0.1.0 Verse: Chorus: End: C 3.3.2.0.1.0 C 3.3.2.0.1.0 G 10.10.9.0.8.0 B 8.8.7.0.6.0 Em 0.2.2.0.0.0 B 8.8.7.0.6.0 G 10.10.9.0.8.0 G# 3.2.0.0.3.0 F# 1.3.3.2.1.0 D 5.5.4.0.3.0 D# 0.0.0.2.3.0 Em 0.2.2.0.0.0 Here comes the Song: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- C/C# (C most of the time, C# very shortly, just a finger lift from the third fret, see the video for the idea!) B C G D x4 B C A warning sign G D B C and I missed the good part and I realised G D B C that I started looking and the bubble burst G D B C G D when I started looking for excuses Come on in and I ve got to tell you what a state I m in yes I ve got to tell you in my loudest tones that I started looking for a warning sign (continue on D here for a few seconds, then chorus!) Chorus: C Em When the truth is Ab Eb I miss you C Em yeah the truth is Ab Eb that I miss you so A warning sign you came back to haunt me and I realised that you were an island and I passed you by when you were an island to discover Come on In and I ve got to tell you what a state I m in yes I ve got to tell you in my loudest tones that I started looking for a warning sign Chorus: When the truth is I miss you yeah the truth is that I miss you so... C Em and I m tired Ab Eb I should not have let you go... G B F# Em x2 G B F# Em So I crawl back into your open arms x4
