Coldplay - A Message tab
Capo 1st fret
Standard Tuning

-------------------------------------------------
With capo on the first fret it should be right on the money.
The piano chords are a step up from these. C -> C#
------------------------------------------------- 


C           Am  G       
My song is love
C            Am        G  
Love to the loveless shown
C           Am  G
And it goes on
           Dm     C    G
You don't have to be alone

C           Am  G
Your heavy heart
C           Am  G F C
Is made of stone
C            Am      G
And it's so hard to see clearly
          Dm       C          G
You don't have to be on your own
           F        C         G
You don't have to be on your own

Dm                 C       G
And I'm not gonna take it back
Dm                       C          G
And I'm not gonna say I don't mean that
Dm                          C      G
You're the target that I'm aiming at
          F        C        G
And I'll get that message home

C          Am  G
My song is love
C           Am       G   F C
My song is love, unknown
C           Am        G
But I'm on fire for you, clearly
           Dm     C    G
You don't have to be alone
           F         C        G 
You don't have to be on your own

Dm                 C       G              
And I'm not gonna take it back
Dm                      C           G
And I'm not gonna say I don't mean that
Dm                          C     G
You're the target that I'm aiming at
        F       C      G        
But I'm nothing on my own
        F       C       G
Got to get that message home

| Dm | C | G |    2x

Dm                 C         G
And I'm not gonna stand and wait
Dm                            C        G        
Not gonna leave it until it's much too late
Dm                       C         G
On a platform I'm gonna stand and say
          F      C      G
That I'm nothing on my own
       F          C          G
That I love you, please come home

| F | C | G | Am |         2x   ---- These are quick and quiet

   F        C        G    Am
My song is love, is love unknown
         F       C        G      C
And I've got to get that message home



I like to play the C's like this on the chorus..
E  |  ---3--
B  |  ---3--
G  |  ------
D  |  ---2--
A  |  ---3--
E  |  ------
makes it easier to switch to the G's
But the original position works too!

Love this song!
