Song: A Rush Of Blood To The Head
Tabbed by: Bart (superbartje@hotmail.com)
I have placed the chords above the lyrics,
but also in short at the top of each part of the song,
so if you feel like not reading lyrics today, you can use those.
(also, it's more easy to figure out the timing with bars between the chords...)
Enjoy!
[VERSE 1 + 2]
In short:
| Am | C | G | Am | x4 then
| Am |
Am C
(He) said I'm gonna buy this place and burn it down
G Am
I'm gonna put it six feet underground
C
He said I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall
G Am
Stand here beside me baby in the crumbling walls
C
Ow, I'm gonna buy this place and start a fire
G Am
Stand here until I fill all your hearts desires
C
Because I'm gonna buy this place and see it burn
G Am
And do back the things it did to you in return
Am

In short:

[VERSE 4]
Same as verse 1+2
In short:

(He) said I'm gonna buy this place and see it go
Stand here beside me baby watch that orange glow
Some will laugh and some (will) just sit and cry
But you just sit down there and you wonder why
So I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
And I'm gonna buy this place is what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head
Ow to the head
[CHORUS]
In short:
| F | F | D | D | then

Honey
All the movements you're starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
and I know that mistakes that I make
See it all disappear without a trace
And be caught after back in your arms
Things that start as you need to go on
("as they need to go on")

P.S: Sorry if the lay-out is messy, in notepad it wasn't....
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official COLDPLAY tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
