Yeah I wish Major Minus was longer. :( But I guess it's "supposed" to have that fast pace? Same goes for Cemeteries of London. I could listen to that drumbeat all bloody day. And, I actually really like the end of ETIAW. The synthesizer isn't as overbearing as it is in the beginning, and hearing Will sing at the end is brilliant in my opinion. :)

Yes.

Coldplay should just become a folk band with Will on vocals.... :lol: Agreed. I've always thought that Chris makes a brilliant and charismatic frontman without having to resort to an excess of running around and stuff. I mean, Viva la Vida and In My Place I can kind of get. But whenever I watch a performance of Lost, it makes me happy when sits down at the synth/piano. In the same way, ETIAW could benefit from Chris just er..sitting down.

Ooh the title always made me think of how in Newspeak, all adjectives are permutations of "good" and "bad." Major minus kind of fits into that grammatical form of doubleplusgood or..er..superbad. :lol: Perhaps the words are actually: Ewe, ewe-oooh, ewe, ewe-oooh Got one eye on the ram and one on you! <(^__^<)

Just popping in to clarify why I compared MM to Creep - the crunchy distorty guitar thing that Jonny does right before the chorus. It's like what Johnny does before the chorus in Creep. Totally superficial, I know. kthxbai...remember that we all love music. :)

It was a silly response because I meant it as a joke. Apologies for the misunderstanding. In any case, I'm having trouble comparing MM to anything on the basis of the guitar work. On the other hand, I do think it has the tone of a Radiohead song - as others pointed out, Bodysnatchers. It has that atmosphere of paranoia and fear through the instrumentation and vocals + lyrics, which is captured very often in Radiohead songs but perhaps in different ways.

Just because the title of this thread has "the edge"..... :lol:

Don't forget Daylight. :D

Wow I must've dozed off when finishing that part LOL. I'm pretty sure you just play the chorus. :embarrassed: Oh and to finish it the way Jemaine does, hit the final Em chord and slide all strings downward.

Hell yes! The thing Jonny does on the guitar before entering in the chorus is very reminiscent of (the other) Johnny in Creep. I love the song, and for those who are hating on the vocals - HEY. 1. It's not autotune and 2. Muse and Radiohead have BOTH used a lot of funky vocal effects to trick out their songs. It's a legit thing to do and it sounds good.

Here's my sloppy answer after giving each video a listen: Well, in the 2nd video, Jonny is playing something nearly identical to what he plays on the electric. Intro/choruses = Eb = x87068 or x688xx Bbm = 688xx Fm = alternates between 133xxx and x8,10,10x Haven't really figured out the "correct" way to play the bridge, but the most basic way you can play those chords is: Gb = 244322 Db = 9,11,11,10,9,9 Ab = 466544 And he plays some other junk for the end, which is the solo that he plays on the electric. BLAH google why are you so sucky at finding good tabs. I can also arrange the piano riff as a guitar part. So yeah...this kind of depends on what end result you want. If you're playing solo, you might as well learn Clocks on piano first.

Whooooooooooooooo publicity!!!! :lol:

LOL I'm glad to hear that. :D

Wow MTM is at 3:45 AM for me. :( WILL BE HERE FOR MM THOUGH. :D

Can't get the stink off, He's been hanging round for days. Comes like a comet, Suckered you but not your friends, One day he'll get to you, Teach you how to be a ho-lee cow! <(^__^<)

Dumb + late question - what was this about Glastonbury being shown at the cinema? Where/when is this?? Did that get cancelled (refuns?) I live in California. Thanks.

Strawberry Swing - Guy, Chris, Jonny. Zergio basically made the Chris and Jonny parts a long while back, for which I owe him like crazy. I just re-transcribed for cleaner formatting since I put all these tabs in easily-printable Word files (email me if you want them). *Note - for Guy's bass part I took a lot of creative liberty to make it sound like the cello/string bass parts because I think those sound a lot cooler than what Guy actually plays.

Fix You - an adapted acoustic guitar part that follows the piano a little (which isn't the original, but something that I believe strikes the right balance between sounding good and being easy to play, ie no alternate tuning), lead guitar based on live performances, bass, and drums. :) Fix You - Coldplay Rhythm Guitar: CAPO ON 3rd FRET; chords will be named after their real names.

Drum Tab?! My cheat sheet 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 |E|-|e|-|E|-|e|E|-|E|-|e|E|-|-|-| |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| I'm terrible at drumset anatomy, but HH = high hat (in this song, you only use the high hat's foot pedal), C1 refers to the crash cymbal on the right hand side of the kit, C2 = left hand side crash cymbal, RC = ride cymbal, S = snare, B = bass drum, RT = right hand side tom (I really don't know which one it is); R and L refer to which hand you use to hit what. x means hitting with foot. During the 2nd verse and chorus, Will plays this live: 1 2 3 4 S |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| HH|-------|x------|-------|x------|-------|x------|-------|x------| B |x--------------|x------|-------|x--------------|x--------------| The first 8 lines of when the drum comes in you part you play a lot of cymbal like so; I'm going to capitalize emphasized beats and lower-case non-emphasized beats. This comes into play because in the first 2 lines it is very straight but lines 3 through 7 are emphasized in a 3-3-2 way (identical to Clocks' pattern). I wrote the emphases above the lines just to make it clearer.

Repeat the following 8 bars 3 times; note there is a fill at the key junctures. I'm not sure which hand does what thing during those fills, so I have those marked as x's. FYI - the singing follows the cymbal more than it does the other stuff while the bass part follows the drums. FUN TIMES RIGHT?

So I used to have a tabs thread but I kind of let it die. So I'll restart it now just to post some of the tabs I've made the past few months. Apologies, Zergio or anyone else if it's one you've already done though. If you go through my previous tabs thread, I also added some bass parts and fixed mistakes in various songs (Yellow, the Masterplan, to name a couple) so those are worth a look if you're interested. Anyways, first up is Us Against the World complete with Chris, Jonny, and Guy's parts (no Will, sorry...leaving that to the Champion :p)! :) WARNING - the forum may resize some of these posts so the ideal thing is if you C+P what I've written into another text editor to view it without unnecessary line breaks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Us Against the World - Coldplay ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: MTM Email: [email protected] Tuning: EADF#Ae, capo on 3rd fret, Time Signature: 6/8 counted in lazy 2 beat bars. Chris Chords (relative to capo) C – 577700 Csus2 – 577500 G – 076500 Gsus4 – 077500 Fsus2 – 10,12,12,0,0,0 Am7 – x9,11,0,0,0 or x9,11,12,0,0 Chords in standard tuning, no capo (in case you have a second guitarist): C – x32010 Csus2 – x3203x G – 320003 Gsus4 – 320013 Fsus2 – 1x3213 Am7 – x02213 The strum pattern for the whole song is basically, which is a lot like the verse of Shiver: 1 2 DUD-UDU DUD-UDU Intro C – Csus2 x4 (x2 at Rock Im Park, x0 at Pinkpop) Main Progression (play this 7 times for 1st verse, 1st chorus, 2nd verse, 2nd chorus, instrumental, respectively): C – Csus2 – C – Csus2 G – Gsus4 – G – Gsus4 Fsus2 (8 beats) C – Csus2 – G – Gsus4 (everything is 2 beats each except for the F) Outro: G – Gsus4 - Fsus4* (4 beats) - Am7 (4 beats) - G – Gsus4 G – Gsus4 - Fsus4* (4 beats) - Am7 (4 beats) – G** Fsus4* - Chris does this to transition from the F to the Am; he’s continuously strumming this so I’ll just show the notes that are different from just playing the chords.

The video cuts off before it ends so I’m really not so sure about it. Lead Guitar, Us Against the World – Coldplay Jonny joins at the 2nd chorus and plays the following (rhythm chord in parentheses): (This comprises 2 of the main progression) [Riff 1 x4 (C), Riff 2 x4 (G), Riff 1 x4 (F), Riff 1 x2 (C), Riff 2 x2 (G)] [Riff 1 x4 (C), Riff 2 x4 (G), Riff 1 x4 (F), Riff 1 x2 (C), Riff 2 x2 (G)] Riff 2 x2 (fading out over a G) Riff 1 e|-------------------| B|------13x-12/13----| G|---12----|------12-| D|10-------|---------| A|-------------------| E|-------------------| Riff 2 e|-------------------| B|------12x-10h12----| G|---12----|------12-| D|12-------|---------| A|-------------------| E|-------------------| Bass – Us Against the World (Coldplay) Guy joins after the 2nd chorus, playing this…it’s not much but damn it sounds good. *Will’s piano part follows the bass part nearly exactly in terms of timing and what to play on the left hand.
