Tuning: Standard

A quick tip: on the first two notes (4/6) don't actually play the 4; just start on
it and slide up quickly.

Song: Charlie Brown (Live at Lollapalooza 2011)
Artist: Coldplay
Tabbed By: Patrick Gamache

This is based on the official video from the Lollapalooza YouTube Channel
of this song.

There were some technical difficulties with the bass during this show,
and as such the bass cuts out at the beginning. This tab begins at
0:55, when Chris enters with the lyrics. The first chorus part, which
is indicated in the song, can be played during the intro, as it is the
same thing.

Verse 1 (0:56)
1   &   2   &    3   &   4   &    1   &   2   &    3   &   4   &
G|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|

NB: This is currently only available in a live format, but I believe this is almost
exactly what Chris plays on acoustic. Use thumb to cover lowest E string in all chords
except E major.
