Great new song off the coldplay album. Have fun playing.

VERSE 1:
C#m
Was a long and dark December

From the rooftops I remembered

There was snow, white snow
C#m
Clearly I remember from the windows

They were watching while we froze

Well, I just realized how to play the original version of Violet Hill loke Jonny plays.
This tab was made mostly watching Jonny playing, then some parts are made by ear and
checked watching Jonny and there's one part that I learned from other tab. This is for
electric guitar and if you have the option play it with a Les Paul Model, I play this
with a
Strat and it sounds like the real song.

Hope you enjoy it!



Tunning: D A D G B E

The guitar starts with something like this:

"...there was snow, white snow..."

AUTHOR:
Tab annotated by rikigo (grosserr@gmail.com)
[Standing on the shoulders of giants]
I've written this in my frustration that I couldn't find/or hear a chord tab of this song
that 'hit the right notes', but I acknowledge with thanks the previous
works of other UT members who inspired me to complete this submission.

TUNING:
Standard Tuning with Capo on 2nd fret. This version of the song is set in Bminor.
Although original is in C#minor, this sounds more interesting and
you get the option of more 'open' chords.

The other tab isn't that great, so...here's my interpretation

I'll just give you the different riffs and where they're supposed to go - listen to the
recording if you want the timing and stuff.
EDIT: When I have time I'll edit some more parts in, but for now this is what you get.

Acoustic Guitar - Guit. 1 (Chris Martin) (Recording piano, live guitar), (EADGBE)
Lead Guitar - Guit. 2 (Jonny Buckland) (DADGBE)
Rhythm Guitar - Guit. 3 (Recording only) (DADGBE)
