i think we should apluad this man who submited the correction, instead of being an ass like most other "correcters", he is very nice and even admits that its nothing major. thank you very much for making your correction very kind!

Thanks for the kind words Faoak, but I'm a girl! :) I put this as a question to everyone. Does the E that Coldplay play, sometimes an E7? I'm just wondering cause sometimes it sounds like it is...

In the verse, you're missing C#m. It comes in after your Amaj. It changes from Amaj to C#m in the third bar of the verse (almost as he says "place" for the second time) The change from A to Amaj should be closer together also. Sorry to pick at it, I'm just being anal.
