In the verses, I think the chords are fingered different:


C7 - 8 x 10 9 11 x


Fm - x 8 10 10 8 x

Oh dear, my mistake, the 8 on the B-string in the Fm should be a 9.

All of the chord names for the guitar seem about right, but the Coldplay guys make it that much easier by playing the chords like this-


C7 - x 3 2 3 1 0


Fm - 1 3 3 1 1 1





The solo at the end is played up higher and all on the G string, to get a more flat sound.


It goes:


E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|


B|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|


G|-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-|


D|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|


A|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|


E------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|


Adding in little variations the second time to make it sound that much cooler.
