Artist - Coldplay 
 Track - Yellow
 Album - Parachutes

 ================================================================================

 Tuning - E A B G B Eb (Both Guitars)

 Again its that tuning that is dotted across this album. Chris' use of quite 
difficult chords means that you have to use
 your thumb to play the notes on the low E string on most of them. 
 ===============================================================================

 CHORDS: Strings low to gigh

 B      = 7978oo | x = string not played
 Bsus4  = 7979oo | o = open string
 F#6    = 24432o | 
 Emaj7  = o2o1oo |
 G#m    = 4644oo |
 F#m7   = 2x22o1 |

 INTRO:

 Rhythm: B    Bsus4, B    Bsus4,

 The lead joins in on the second B strumming the chords

 Then... the main riff (you hold onto the bends, for example in the 1st 
sequence you are not playing just 11th fret but 
                       
(holding onto the bend from the 9th. Also the emphasis is on the 2nd and 
3rd strings and the first
                       (string should may not come through as loudly as 
the other 2 but it is there)
