you know last nite?

i looked all over but they are crappy tabs

which ones do you use?

yeah 12:51 is alright, its boring though

learn automatic stop its #3 on room on fire

ha

i put the cd on and play 2-4 on that cd

i should learn the rest

 

Yea, i had a hard time searching for the last nite tab, so then i gave up and searched for a guitar pro file. And i found this really sweet, totally accurate file, but now my guitar pro tells me that i cant open it cos i have to update the program. gah. Then i downloaded this other G.P. file and it is working now. It isnt as good as the other one though, the guitars sound totally crappy, but ah, at least you can get the right bass notes there. I can send it to you if you want.

i play a lot of coldplay songs on piano, guitar, and bass. the ones i can play on bass are:

 

one i love

moses

rush of blood to the head

the scientist

murder

lips like sugar

green eyes

god put a smile upon your face

clocks

amsterdam

daylight

warning sign

 

thats all i can remember. i think i've forgotten a few but i'll post those for now

amsterdam is the coolest song but ridiculous to play for the 30 second part on bass

daylight is fun

clocks is prolly the best

 

Yea man, i hate how you have to wait for like, 3 mins till you actually start to play the bass on amsterdam. It is a cool bass line, but isnt worth waiting for, you know what i mean?

The scientist kinda bugs me too, since you only have the piano and some guitar for the first 1.30 minutes, and then the bass is kinda boring after that

Ok, these two and politik probably are the only coldplay bass lines that i dislike.

The ones i like to play are gpasuyf (especially in the ending of the chorus. I luv the way it goes back to the verse riff), clocks (its getting kinda old though.) and everythings not lost (imo its the sweetest coldplay bass line)

Moses bass sounds cool too, i'll see if i can find a nice tab

i looked up gpasuyf but it looked friggin hard and i dont think it sounded right

try 'daylight' man its pretty cool

 

ah, gpasuyf isnt hard at all. oh well, maybe I got lucky and found the right tab in my first try, who knows? Anyway, here's the tab i use. the only tricky part is the final of the chorus.

the verses and the chorus are easy and really cool to play.
