Octakon Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 hmm.. Bm isn't that hard really. Play it as a barré like this: 224432 (with your "pointing-finger" covering all of the strings in the second fret) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
About A Girl Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 dear mr octakon, I realize you are some sort of "guitar playing extraordinare" but some are not. SOME people cannot play bm....so if someone says, "I can't play bm, I cant get there fast enough," your response should not be "Bm isn't that hard really" Thank you for listening...and have a wonderful day Yours Truly, Britt! :smug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Octakon Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't see the "I can't get there fast enough" :/ By the way, I'm not some "guitar playing extraordinare", and I'm just trying to help.. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artemetus Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 The thing with Coldplay is they use lots of open string chords. Playing Green Eyes in the regular A, Bm, and E chords is fine but I've tabbed Green Eyes which makes it sound really good. And if you listen to the acoustics in the song real closely, my tab matches it. OK first you need to place a capo on the 2nd fret. Next tune the high 'e' string to the 5th fret on the guitar and in this case, it's the 3rd fret from where you've placed the capo. OK here's the chords (: G Bm Am Am* C Fmaj7 Asus2 Cmaj7 e---0------0------0------0------0-----0----------0--------0 B---3------3------1------1------1-----1----------0--------0 G---4------4------2------0------0-----2----------2--------0 D---5------4------2------2------2-----3----------2--------2 A---5------X------0------0------3-----3----------0--------3 E---6------2-------0------0------0-----1----------0-------0 With a lot of the chords in this song, you have to use your thumb to hold down on the low 'e' which may be hard for beginners. Also you'll have to figure out all the timing on which chords to use, but these are the chords. G Bm Am Am* honey you are a rock G Bm Am Am* upon which i stand G Bm Am Am* and i come here to talk G Bm Am Am* i hope you understand Am that green eyes C G Bm yeah the spotlight shines upon you Am C G Bm Am/Am* and how could anybody deny you Am C i came here with a load G Fmaj7 C Cmaj7 and it feels so much lighter now i met you Am C and honey you should know G Fmaj7 C Cmaj7 that i could never go on without you Am green eyes G Bm Am Am* honey you are the sea G Bm Am Am* upon which i float G Bm Am Am* and i came here to talk G Bm Am Am* i think you should know Am that green eyes C G Bm you're the one that i wanted to find Am C G Bm Am/Am* and anyone who tried to deny you must be out of their mind Am C cause i came here with a load G Fmaj7 C Cmaj7 and it feels so much lighter since i met you Am C and honey you should know G Fmaj7 C Cmaj7 that i could never go on without you Am green eyes Am green eyes G oh, oh, oh, oh Am oh, oh, oh oh, G Bm Am Am* honey you are the rock G Bm Am upon which i stand Hope you learn it and enjoy it!
