This is the simplest way to play it (and the chords Toby uses in the song). Figured it 
out by piano so no capo. Enjoy!
*You can add a Bb at the end of each verse after the Gm*
**You can also go from the Fm to a quick Abm to Bb. (This actually sounds the best)**

This song sounds dramatic

but I'm bad at writing words.

If you don't speak English,

this probably sounds pretty good.

You'd probably think I'm singing

bout some pretty serious stuff.

But in reality, I'm singing 'bout

the lack of stuff

i'm singing 'bout. This part's intense.

And emotional.

As long as

you don't understand it.

Your foreign grandma

would love this song.

Please send it to her,

and she'll probably tell her

foreign friends about the song her

grandson or daughter sent her today.

This song might hit the charts in her country

if parts sounded like

Cooooldplayyyyyyy

...

If the chorus sounds like

Coldplllayyyy

Then I put some

'La-La-La's in there.

La la la la la,

Gm Bb

la la la la la la la (Coldplay)

Hopefully your foreign grandma

listens to this song everyday.

And if she asks you to

translate the lyrics, here's what you say:

"A perfect translation

does not exist.

Well, at least,

not in your language.

But if you must know,

well, picture this:

Fifty billion rainbows,

and the sun is setting, and the

moon is setting, also,

and you're there in a gazebo.

And then God descends from heaven

and He gives you a million dollars.

Take that feelinggggg,

and put it into a song.

but that'd take too long.

And I've got stuff to do grandma.

I don't have time for this.

You've gotta trust me grandma,
