Band: Coldplay
Song: Ladder To The Sun
Album: None (Live Version)
Words & Music: Guy Berrymen, Jon Buckland, Will Champion & Chris Martin
From: Zachary
E-mail: cicak_cobing@yahoo.com
Note: This song is a live version. It's a nice song. So just try it
out! :þ The starting song sounds a little of Yellow's intro bit
& ends a little of The Scientist's 'Ouuu...' bit.
Standard Tuning: EADGbe

Note: The intro starts with piano. What chord is that? I'm not sure,
it could be B or C. Then when the drums come in, the guitar &
bass guitar joins together. At this point, the track is blur,
because the bass guitar is very loud. So the intro here is given
base on the bass guitar. All the C, D, E & A in the intro is
known as Cmajor1, Dsus, Esus & Asus(could be Am) for guitar.

Verse 1:
C/G Am
From the very started,
C/G Am
Came Earth parted,
C/G Am F
Broke up into pieces and...
C/G Am
There's a chance I could have missed it,
C/G Am
It could risked it,
C/G Am F
But I put myself into your hands,
Note: The pre chorus is hard. So listen carefully to this part of the
song when you want to play it. Try it first with the bass
guitar's tab then you will get it on your guitar. Again I use the
bass guitar chord, so convert it to guitar when you get it. If
you're playing the guitar for the first test in the pre chorus,
you don't need to play the D & E. If you can, then convert the
D E DsusEsus
& to guitar chords as & .
Pre Chorus:
C
|
Cos you're not just anyone, |
|
D E A
|
You're a ladder to the sun, |Once again, this is the for the base.
|For guitar, play the C & A only.
D E C C A Am
|Convert the & to C1 & .
You're not just anyone, |
|
D E A
|
You're a ladder to the sun, |
Note: Lyrics here is just a guess at the 3rd line. So listen to the
song for help.
Verse 2:
C/G Am
I can run my courses and ah,
C/G Am
Opposing forces and now I,
C/G Am F
Then I'm just an author and...
C/G Am
If you want me then you can have me,
C/G Am
Oh take me, oh baby grab me,
C/G Am F
Cos If you want me then you can have me,
Note: The same as the first pre chorus.
Pre Chorus:
C
Cos you're not just anyone,
D E A
You're a ladder to the sun,
D E C
You're not just anyone,
D E A
You're a ladder to the sun,
Note: The lyrics for the chorus is a guess, but I think it is correct.
The chords for the chorus might not be right because of the way
Chris Martin sing it with a 'throw vocals'(I think that's the
correct term). So this is the best that I can figure it out.
Chorus:
Asus Bsus
Oh my babe, why you did not turn?
Asus Bsus Asus
You set a course and you could not run,
Asus Bsus F#m C/G
Oh when I'm out but you did't not turn...
Verse 3:
C/G Am
I had it all and I risked it,
C/G Am
And it could risk it,
C/G Am F
I had it all and I risked it all,
C/G
And I risked it all,
Note: The instrumental starts with the piano. Then the drums bangs in
as the bass guitar finger-walks on the bass. While the electric
guitar play the tabs given below. If you are using acoustic
guitar, then all the C, D, E, & A convert it to C1, Dsus, Esus &
Asus Am
(could be ).

Instrumental: (piano)

Note: During the bridge, the electric guitar will still play the same
tabs given.

Note: This part, all the instruments will fade out leaving the piano
alone.
Fade:

C/G F
I risked it all,
C/G
I had it all,
F
I risked it all,
C/G F
I risked it all,
F C/G
A ladder to the sun,
Note: For better understanding listen to the song and try it out. But
still, there is a feeling that in the intro & the intrumental,
the Dsus could be Dminor. Maybe you can correct it if there is
any mistake. Anyway, enjoy!
