Glass Of Water

coldplay - glass of water tabbed by deluke hey guys! i went through some of the tabs online and found that none of them actually displayed the sound of the song properly . so i did my own one and there you go! don’t get afraid of the chords . they’re basically only little variations of D . listen to the song to get a feeling for the strumming especially in the verses where it’s the same over and over again . i tried to match the chords to the words the best i could . it seems very untidy at first but makes it much easier to play and sing along . have fun! chords : Dsus4 x 5 7 7 8 5 D x 5 7 7 7 5 Dsus2 x 5 7 7 5 5 D7maj x 5 7 7 5 9 Gsus2 x 10 12 12 10 10 Aadd9 5 7 9 6 5 5 F#m 2 4 4 2 2 2 Bm 7 9 9 7 7 7 G 3 5 5 4 3 3 E5 x 7 9 9 x xa 5 7 7 6 5 5 ( note : Dsus4 - D simply means that you slide from 8th to 7th fret with your little finger! ) = = = Verse 1 = = = Dsus4 - D Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D scared of losin’ all the time Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D he wrote it in a letter , Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D he was a friend of mine Dsus4 - D Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D he heard you could see your future Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D inside a glass of water Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D Dsus2 D7maj with ripples and the lines Gsus2 Aadd9 and he asked , "will i see heaven in mine?" = = = fill = = = Dsus4 - D Dsus2 D7maj ( 2x ) = = = Verse 2 = = = Dsus4 - D Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D that is just the way it was Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D nothing could be better Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D Dsus2 D7maj and nothing ever was Dsus4 - D Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D oh , they say you can see your future Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D inside a glass of water , Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D Dsus2 D7maj the riddles and the rhymes Gsus2 Aadd9 "will i see heaven in mine?" = = = Chorus = = = D F#m Bm G son , D F#m Bm G don’t ask D F#m Bm G D F#m Bm G neither how full nor empty is your glass D F#m Bm G cling D F#m Bm G to the mast D F#m Bm G G E5 G spend your whole life living in the past A going nowhere fast = = = fill = = = Dsus4 - D Dsus2 D7maj ( 2x ) = = = Verse 3 = = = Dsus4 - D Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D so he wrote it on A wall Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D the hollowest of halos Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D is no halo at all Dsus4 - D Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D tele - visions selling plastic figurines of leaders Dsus2 D7maj Dsus4 - D saying nothing at all Gsus2 Aadd9 and you chime , stars in heaven align = = = Chorus = = = D F#m Bm G son , D F#m Bm G don’t ask D F#m Bm G D F#m Bm G neither how full nor empty is your glass D F#m Bm G cling D F#m Bm G to the mast D F#m Bm G G E5 G spend your whole life living in the past A going nowhere fast = = = Bridge = = = ( slow strumming , half tempo ) G G F#m Bm G Em A Aadd9 = = = Chorus = = = ( without singing ) D F#m Bm G ( 4x ) D = = = end = = = D A what are we drinking when we’re done?
