I figured out the whole live verson of the song accept the ending,

 

The basic progression is this:

 

F, C, F, Bb, F, G, A, F

 

Or:

 

F, C, F, Bb, C, D, F, F

 

Can someone please put the chords? :P

I have absolutely no idea what you're getting at.

I'm trying to learn the Ending starting at 4:24 in the video. I have the basic progression, so I was hoping someone with a good ear and music knowledge can help

? I'm a little confused.

He plays what usual...

F chord, Bb chord. + he plays some single notes but it's still the same chord:

*F chord - > A -> C -> F

*Bb chord -> Bb -> D -> F

And ends with F chord. Nothing really complicated, then he just plays the chorus and plays the exact same thing for the second ending.

I have no idea what you're talking about when you say 'basic progression'.

 

The chords for the song are:

 

- Into and Verses: Dm7, Bb, F, Fsus2

- Chorus: Bb, F, Fsus2 then C, C7 before it goes back to the chorus.

 

From what I can tell in the live version ending that you posted he just sort of plays around with the chords for the chorus. There's no definite way to play it.

^ I agree with you.

It's like I wrote, just main chords used throughout the song and I pointed which notes (or inversions is the better word) he plays.

:dozey: I meant the progression for the ending, not the song itself

 

Ok I wanted to learn the ending at 5:06.

I already posted that.

Where? Sorry you know me; I'm a dumbass :shame:

F chord, Bb chord. + he plays some single notes but it's still the same chord:

*F chord - > A -> C -> F

*Bb chord -> Bb -> D -> F

And ends with F chord. Nothing really complicated, then he just plays the chorus and plays the exact same thing for the second ending.

 

That.

hahhahaha... sorry I had to laugh ;D

Great, now I have new people laughing at me :facepalm:

 

Welcome to Coldplaying btw, I'm Billy, that's Will; we're both music freaks, but he's more suttle and smarter :uhoh:

Yes, but anyway. I posted that and it's correct. Just listen to this very ending and you'll hear that it's F chord and bb chord like in the main progression, and the single notes are just the notes form the chord but a little inverted (in the F chord, yes).

nah i think he means the 3 chords on the final note.

 

lets go back to the start

 

when he sings "start" he uses 3 final chords (very fast progresseion)

LOL. I DON'T WANT TO BE RUDE OR SOMETHING BUT HOW MANY MORE TIMES I HAVE TO WRITE THAT IT'S F CHORD BB CHORD AND F CHORD AS THE FINAL (THE THIRD) AND BETWEEN THE CHORDS HE PLAYS THE NOTES FROM THE CHORD.
