(ver. 1)
Coldplay
Coldplay - Parachutes Album
Bass tab


i tabbed this out in my record time well over a year ago now while waiting 
to
be picked up for band practise. lovely album- not a bad song on it. sorry 
its taken
so long to get it written down on computer. its been in my 'tabs to do' pile 
for ages.

all songs in standard tuning

-High Speed-*
This song is in 4/4 but has sporadic 2/4 bars throughout-
my advice- go with the feel!
