86Timewarp Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 From Hal Leonard: (Keep in mind they give you the chords for standard tuning, not the chords for the way Chris plays) "This table shows the guitar tunings supplied by Chris Martin to show how Coldplay perform these songs." Hurts Like Heaven: EBEG#BE (Capo 6) Charlie Brown: EADGAD (Capo 4) Us Against the World: EADF#AE (Capo 3) Every Teardrop is a Waterfall: DADGAE Major Minus: EADGBE (Capo 10) Princess of China: EADGBE (Capo 10) UFO: CGDGBD (Capo 2) Up With the Birds: EADGBD (Capo 7) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teddypeak Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 It`s not actually the true info... because: -not all of the guitars are tuned like that (usually only one guitar, because sometimes in the recording there are more than one used, overdubs and stuff like that) *Charlie Brown - EADGAD (you have to tune down a semitone to match the original recording) *Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall - standard (if you wanna play keyboard parts using guitar then put a capo on 2nd fret) *Major Minus - EADGGB (no capo!!!) *Princess of China - standard, no capo) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ THE TUNINGS IN THE REST OF THE SONGS ARE CORRECT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86Timewarp Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 Hey I didnt write these, Chris did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
approximately Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I'm pretty sure that there is no capo on major minus and for charlie brown you have to tune it down a semitone - and THAT is the way chris plays it.

VIVA.42 Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 now where can i find the chords for these songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplaykb Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 ^I would like to know as well. I have been trying to learn Chris' chords on Charlie Brown for months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getithom Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Major Minus is not capoed. I'm very positive the song is tuned down on Chris' guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86Timewarp Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 Major Minus isn't capo-ed yes, this might've been the tunings for the studio version in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garvmg Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Chris is right about UFO but the studio version doesn't have a capo on the 2nd fret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vander Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 What the heck? Who came up with these tunings? Charlie Brown, Major Minus and POC are all incorrect. There's also UFO, there's no way he's using a capo on the 7th fret. Can't you hear it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
