Chords by: Jhay Ehidio
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's the Song of the Year for MTV Europe...Coldplay's Speed of Sound...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Verse:
A G/B
How long before I get in
D
Before it starts, before I begin?
A G/B
How long before you decide
D
Before I know what it feels like?
A G/B
Where to, where do I go?
D
If you never try, then you'll never know
A G/B
How long do I have to climb
D
Up on the side of this mountain of mine?
Interlude: (play intro chords)
Verse: (play verse chords)
Look up, I look up at night
Planets are moving at the speed of light
Climb up, up in the trees
Every chance that you get is a chance you seize
How long am I gonna stand
With my head stuck under the sand?
I’ll start before I can stop
Before I see things the right way up
Refrain:
G9 A Bm
All that noise, and all that sound
G Gdim Bm
All those places that I doth found
G Bm
And birds go flying at the speed of sound
D G
To show you how it all began
Bm
Birds came flying from the underground
F#m G
If you could see it then you'd understand
Interlude: (play intro chords)
Verse: (play verse chords)
Ideas that you'll never find
Or the inventors could never design
The buildings that you put up
Japan and China all lit up
The sign that I couldn't read
Or the light that I couldn't see
Some things you have to believe
But others are puzzles, puzzling me
Refrain:
G9 A Bm
All that noise, and all that sound
G Gdim Bm
All those places that I doth found
G Bm
And birds go flying at the speed of sound
D G
To show you how it all began
Bm
Birds came flying from the underground
F#m G
If you could see it then you'd understand
F#m G -D
If you could see it then you'd understand
Bridge:
G A Bm
All those signs, I knew what they meant
Some things you can't invent
G A Bm
Some get made, and some get sent
E
Ooh…
Refrain:
G Bm
And birds go flying at the speed of sound
D G
To show you how it all began
Bm
Birds came flying from the underground
F#m G -A -Bm -C -D
If you could see it then you'd understand

That's all...thank you...

For it is not Gdim, but more like a G-b5: 345433 or 320023
