Am C
He said I'm gonna buy this place and burn it down
Em Am
I'm gonna put it six feet underground
Am C
He said "I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall
Em Am
Stand here beside me baby in the crumbling walls
Am C
Oh I'm gonna buy this place and start a fire
Em Am
Stand here until I fill all your heart's desires
Am C
Because I'm gonna buy this place and see it burn
Em Am
Do back the things it did to you in return
Fmaj7 Fmaj7 variant
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah...
Fmaj7 Fmaj7 variant
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah...
Am C
He said I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war
Em Am
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
Am C
Oh and I'm gonna buy this place that's what I said
Em Am
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head
Fmaj7
Honey
Fmaj7 D
All the movements you're starting to make
D Fmaj7
See me crumble and fall on my face
Fmaj7 D
And I know the mistakes that I made
D Bb Fmaj7
See it all disappear without a trace.
Fmaj7 D
And they call as they beckon you on
D Bb Am
They said start as you mean to go on
Start as you mean to go on
He said "I'm gonna buy this place and see it go
Stand here beside my baby, watch the orange glow
Some will laugh and some 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 that's what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head
Oh to the head
Honey
All the movements you're starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I made
See it all disappear without a trace.
And they call as they beckon you on
They said start as you mean to go on
As you mean to go on, as you mean to go on
So meet me by the bridge,
Oh meet me by the lane
When am I going to see
That pretty face again
Meet me on the road
Meet me where I sais
Blame it all upon
A rush of blood to the head
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.
