Coldplay

Coldplay - Speed Of Sound gitaar tab

Je score:

Here's the selection from the album X&Y that you've all been waiting for...I guess.  Heck, its
the single.  In my opinion, one of the stronger songs on the album.


    TUNING

INTRO: If you listen carefully, a guitar is doubling the piano part, which goes like this.
        A         Em                          D
E-0---------------0---------------0---------------0---------------
B---3---------------3---------------3---------------3-------------
G-------2-----2---------0-----0---------0-----0------------------- (2x)
D-------------------------------------------------------4-----4---
  . . . . ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' .

VERSE: The G's in the verse are especially prevalent in later verses (Buckland's lead in later

verses brings it out)
    A                 Em             G                  D
How long before I get in?  Before it starts, before I begin?
    A                 Em              G                  D
How long before you decide?  Before I know what it feels like?
      A              Em                G                      D
Where to? Where do I go?  If you never try, then you'll never know.
    A                 Em                G                        D
How long do I have to climb?  Up on the side of this mountain of mine?


(* interesting note for any combination Phish/Coldplay fans out there (I know you exist); this verse progression is the same as the chorus progression of "Pebbles and Marbles" from Round Room)


INTRO: 2x

SECOND VERSE: No guitar in the first two lines, then..
   A               Em              G               D
E------------5-\\3-----------3---------------3-\\2-----------2-//5-
B------------------------------------------------------------------
G----------6---\\4---------4---------------4---\\2-----------2-//6-
D--7-----------------------------5-------------------------4-------
   ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . '

(How long am I gonna stand? with my head stuck under the sand.)

   A               Em              G               D
E-(5)--------5-\\3-----------3---------------3-\\2-----------------
B------------------------------------------------------------------
G-(6)------6---\\4---------4---------------4---\\2-----------------
D--------------------------------5---------------------------------
   ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . '

(I'll start before I can stop, before I see things the right way up.)



PRE-CHORUS:
   G               A               Bm
E----5-----5-----5---5-----5-----5---5-----5-----5---5-----5-----5-
B------------------------------------------------------------------ (2x)
G-/7-----7-----7--/6-----6-----6---4-----4-----4--/4-----4-----4---
   ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . '

	(All that noise, and all that sound)
	(All those places I got found)

 (* note that the timing system here points out the stressed beats on the drums ('))

CHORUS:
    G                         Bm
And thoughts go flying at the speed of sound,
   D                   G
To show you how it all began.
G                             Bm
Thoughts came flying from the underground,
             F#m                    G
if you could see it then you'd understand.

INTRO: 2x

THIRD VERSE: (first two lines have some heavily distorted chords that I can't hear the exact
voicings of (though they are pretty much forms of A Em G D.)  But the next two lines have
something similar to the second verse.

   A               Em              G               D
E------------9-\\12---------12--10----------10-\\14---------14-\\9-
B------------------------------------------------------------------
G----------9---\\12-------12--------------12---\\14-------14---\\9-
D--7---------------------------------------------------------------
   ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . '

(The sign that I couldn't read, or a light that I couldn't see, )

   A               Em              G               D
E-(9)--------9-\\12---------12--10----------10-\\14----------------
B------------------------------------------------------------------
G-(9)------9---\\12-------12--------------12---\\14----------------
D------------------------------------------------------------------
   ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . '

(Some things you have to believe, but others are puzzles, puzzling me.)

PRE-CHORUS: 2x

SECOND CHORUS: Here's what I can pick out from the lead..
   G               Bm              D               G
E---------10------------10---7------------10------------10---------

E---------10------------10---7-------------9------------10---------
B-----1012----1210-710p7---------7-----7h9----10---8h108----10--h8-
   ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . '

PRE-CHORUS VARIATION:

   G               A               Bm              E
E----5-----5-----5---5-----5-----5---5-----5-----5h4-------4-----4-

   ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . ' ; . ' . . ' . '

	(All those signs, I knew what they meant.  Some things you can't invent.)
	(Some get made, and some get sent)


FINAL CHORUS: The lead is the same as in the second chorus
    G                         Bm
And thoughts go flying at the speed of sound,
   D                   G
To show you how it all began.
G                             Bm
Thoughts came flying from the underground,
             F#m                    G
if you could see it then you'd understand.
             F#m                   (OUTRO)
ah, when you see it then you'll understand?

OUTRO:
   G               A               D               Em              Bm/F# (bass plays an F#)
E--7---------------9--------------10--------------12--------------14----------------
