Thanks to Zachary (1st version of the tab) for providing the template... hope he doesn't mind.
Guitar's in standard tuning... a rarity for Coldplay, I must say. Still some
different chords though...I'm giving them semi-standard names because I have no
clue what they are really called.
The Chords:
B B* G#* G#*add5 Fmajor E
e| 7 7 0 0 2 0
b| 7 7 0 0 2 0
G| 8 7 4 6 3 1
D| 9 8 6 x 4 2
A| 9 9 6 6 4 2
E| 7 7 4 4 2 0
Verse 1:
B B*
From the very start, it
G#* (G#*add5)
Came a-part and,
B* B* G#*
Broke up into pieces and...
Fmaj B B*
There's a chance I could have missed it,
G#* (G#*add5)
It could risked it,
(Fmaj) B B* G#*
But I put myself into your hands,
B
Cos you're not just anyone,
G#*
You're a ladder to the sun,
B
Oh, You're not just anyone,
G#*
You're a ladder to the sun.
Verse 2:
B B*
I could run my courses and ah,
G#* (G#*add5)
Opposing forces and ah,
B B* G#*
Men are just mortals, and...
B B*
Oh If you want me then you can have me,
G#* (G#*add5)
C'mon take me, oh baby grab me,
B B* G#*
Cos If you want me then you can have me,

Oh You're not just anyone,
G#*
You're my ladder to the sun.
E
Oh now boy, what you may not turn?
Fmaj
You set a course and she couldn't run,

Oh now boy what you may not turn...
