The first part of this is the studio version with a 'C#' (or 'Db')
on the 3rd measures for more 'flavor', whereas 'Coldplay' just
play the 'Bbm' twice. Below that are my interpretations of slight
variations from a mix of live performances.

INTRO & VERSE #1 & #2:
----------------------

Play this twice:

   Eb               Bbm              Db               Fm

R5|D-----D-----D---|C-----C-----C---|C-----C-----C---|c-----c-----c---|
R4|--A-----A-----A-|--A-----A-----A-|--G-----G-----G-|--G-----G-----G-|
R4|----g-----g-----|----f-----f-----|----f-----f-----|----f-----f-----|
L4|D>>>>>>>>>>>D>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|c>>>>>>>>>>>c>>>|
L3|A>>>>>>>>>>>A>>>|A>>>>>>>>>>>A>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|
L3|g>>>>>>>>>>>g>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|

Then, play this TWICE:

   Eb               Bbm              Db               Fm

R5|D-----D-----D---|C-----C-----C---|C-----C-----C---|c-----c-----c---|
R4|--A-----A-----A-|--A-----A-----A-|--G-----G-----G-|--G-----G-----G-|
R4|----g-----g-----|----f-----f-----|----f-----f-----|----f-----f-----|
L4|--D---D---D---D-|----------------|--C---C---C---C-|----------------|
L3|D---D---D---D---|--A---A---A---A-|C---C---C---C---|--f---f---f---f-|
L2|----------------|A---A---A---A---|----------------|f---f---f---f---|

Then, play this 4 TIMES, and return to beginning after 1st VERSE:

   Eb               Bbm              Db               Fm

R5|D>>>>>>>>>>>D>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|c>>>>>>>>>>>c>>>|
R4|A>>>>>>>>>>>A>>>|A>>>>>>>>>>>A>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|
R4|g>>>>>>>>>>>g>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|
L4|--D---D---D---D-|----------------|--C---C---C---C-|----------------|
L3|D---D---D---D---|--A---A---A---A-|C---C---C---C---|--f---f---f---f-|
L2|----------------|A---A---A---A---|----------------|f---f---f---f---|

Then, after 2nd VERSE play this 4 TIMES:

   Eb               Bbm              Db               Fm

R5|D-----D-----D---|C-----C-----C---|C-----C-----C---|c-----c-----c---|
R4|--A-----A-----A-|--A-----A-----A-|--G-----G-----G-|--G-----G-----G-|
R4|----g-----g-----|----f-----f-----|----f-----f-----|----f-----f-----|
L4|D>>>>>>>>>>>D>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|c>>>>>>>>>>>c>>>|
L3|A>>>>>>>>>>>A>>>|A>>>>>>>>>>>A>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|
L3|g>>>>>>>>>>>g>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|

Then, play this 4 TIMES:

   Eb               Bbm              Db               Fm

R5|G-----G-----G---|G-----G-----G---|G-----G-----G---|G-----G-----G---|
R5|--g-----g-----g-|--g-----g-----g-|--g-----g-----g-|--g-----g-----g-|
R5|----D-----D-----|----C-----C-----|----C-----C-----|----c-----c-----|
L4|D>>>>>>>>>>>D>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|c>>>>>>>>>>>c>>>|
L3|A>>>>>>>>>>>A>>>|A>>>>>>>>>>>A>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|
L3|g>>>>>>>>>>>g>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|

Then, play this 3 TIMES:

   Bbm/Gb                            Db               Ab

R5|f-----f-----f---|f-----f-----f---|f-----f-----f---|D-----D-----D---|
R5|--C-----C-----C-|--C-----C-----C-|--C-----C-----C-|--c-----c-----c-|
R4|----A-----A-----|----A-----A-----|----G-----G-----|----G-----G-----|
L4|----------------|----------------|--C---C---C---C-|----------------|
L3|--F---F---F---F-|--F---F---F---F-|C---C---C---C---|--G---G---G---G-|
L2|F---F---F---F---|F---F---F---F---|----------------|G---G---G---G---|

Then (ONCE):

   Bbm/Gb           Db               Ab               Gb

R5|f-----f-----f---|f-----f-----f---|D-----D-----D---|F-----F-----F---|
R4|--C-----C-----C-|--C-----C-----C-|--c-----c-----c-|--C-----C-----C-|
R4|----A-----A-----|----G-----G-----|----G-----G-----|----G-----G-----|
L3|F>>>>>>>>>>>F>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|F>>>>>>>>>>>F>>>|
L2|F>>>>>>>>>>>F>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|F>>>>>>>>>>>F>>>|

Then, play this TWICE:

   Eb               Bbm              Db               Fm

R5|D-----D-----D---|C-----C-----C---|C-----C-----C---|c-----c-----c---|
R4|--A-----A-----A-|--A-----A-----A-|--G-----G-----G-|--G-----G-----G-|
R4|----g-----g-----|----f-----f-----|----f-----f-----|----f-----f-----|
L4|D>>>>>>>>>>>D>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|c>>>>>>>>>>>c>>>|
L3|A>>>>>>>>>>>A>>>|A>>>>>>>>>>>A>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|
L3|g>>>>>>>>>>>g>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|

Then, play this 8 TIMES:

   Eb               Bbm              Db               Fm

R5|G-----G-----G---|G-----G-----G---|G-----G-----G---|G-----G-----G---|
R5|--g-----g-----g-|--g-----g-----g-|--g-----g-----g-|--g-----g-----g-|
R5|----D-----D-----|----C-----C-----|----C-----C-----|----c-----c-----|
L4|D>>>>>>>>>>>D>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|c>>>>>>>>>>>c>>>|
L3|A>>>>>>>>>>>A>>>|A>>>>>>>>>>>A>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|
L3|g>>>>>>>>>>>g>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|f>>>>>>>>>>>f>>>|

Right here is where the song would fade out on the studio version, but
here's some improvised melodies on this song interpreted from 'live'
performances that can be interspersed in the body of the original to
'liven' it up. So, instead of ending the song here…

R5|f-----f-----f---|f-----f-----f---|D-----D-----D---|F-----F-----F---|
R4|--C-----C-----C-|--C-----C-----C-|--c-----c-----c-|--C-----C-----C-|
R4|----A-----A-----|----G-----G-----|----G-----G-----|----G-----G-----|
L3|F>>>>>>>>>>>F>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|F>>>>>>>>>>>F>>>|
L2|F>>>>>>>>>>>F>>>|C>>>>>>>>>>>C>>>|G>>>>>>>>>>>G>>>|F>>>>>>>>>>>F>>>|

Then, play this twice:

   Eb               Bbm              Db               Ab

R5|g-----g-----g---|f-----f-----f---|f-----f-----f---|D-----D-----D---|
R4|--D-----D-----D-|--C-----C-----C-|--C-----C-----C-|--c-----c-----c-|

L2|----------------|A---A---A---A---|----------------|f---f---f---f---|

Then, play this twice:

   Eb               Bbm              Db               Fm

R5|D-----D-----D---|C-----C-----C---|C-----C-----C---|c-----c-----c---|

***********************  LYRICS (Studio Version)  ***********************
_________________________________________________________________________

The lights go out and I can't be saved.
Tides that I tried to swim against …
Have brought me down upon my knees.
Oh, I beg, I beg and plead  … Singing …

Come out of things unsaid.
Shoot an apple off my head. And, a
Trouble that can't be named …
A tiger's waiting to be tamed … Singing …

You … are … You … are …

Con-fu-sion never stops …
Closing walls and ticking clocks … Gonna …
Come back and take you home …
I could not stop that you now know … Singing …

Come out upon my seas …
Cursed missed op-portunities … Am I …
A part of the cure … Or …
Am I part of the disease … Singing …

You … are … You … are …
You … are … You … are …

And, nothing else compares …
Oh, no, nothing else compares …
And, nothing else compares …

Home, home where I wanted to go …
Home, home where I wanted to go …
    [You …                  are …]
Home, home where I wanted to go …
    [You …                  are …]
Home, home where I wanted to go …

Excellent job DT; The third measure clearly has a Db in the bass and other versions repeat the Bbm. Who are the haters who gave it one star?

knightsofcydonia, if you're just beginning this is really not that hard to learn. Start off taking it very slowly (& by 'slow' I mean as slow as you need to even if it's one note at a time) with both the right & left hands playing the first line (4 measures) all the way through, over, and over, and over. Gradually increase your playing speed as you get the hang of it until you're playing at the correct speed. Then, move on to the next line and learn it the same way. Then, start playing both lines in succession. Then, move on to the next line, and the next, and the next... It may take some time, but don't get frustrated. Just keep playing, and playing, and playing...
