Hi everyone !
That's my tab for one of Coldplay's best: Talk !
Even if there's no rythm guitar in the first half of the intro or in the first
half of Verse 1, I've put the chords there for a complete chord sheet :D

Verse 1
D#           Gm             A#  D#       Gm  A#
Oh brother I can't, I can't get through
          D#             Gm    A#           D#                 F
I've been trying hard to reach you 'cause I don't know what to do
D#           Gm      A#         D#   Gm  A#
Oh brother I can't believe it's true
       D#               Gm     A#    D#            F
I'm so scared about the future and I wanna talk to you
     D#            F       Gm
Oh I wanna talk to you
 
 
Chorus
Rythm Guitar
        D#                Gm            A#     D# Gm A#
You can take a picture of something you see
D#            Gm           A#       D# Gm A#
In the future where will I be?
        D#             Gm        A#     D# Gm A#
You can climb a ladder up to the sun
     D#             Gm       A#
Or a write a song nobody has sung
   D#                  F               Gm
Or do something that's never been done

Verse 2
D#         Gm      A#   D#     Gm  A#
   Are you lost or incomplete?
       D#          Gm      A#        D#                F
Do you feel like a puzzle, you can't find your missing piece?
        D#         Gm     A#     D#  Gm  A#
Tell me how do you feel?
       D#                Gm      A#   D#                     F
Well I feel like they're talking in a language which I don't speak
            D#            F      Gm
And they're talking it to me

Chorus 3
Rythm Guitar
       D#                                    Gm    A#    D#  Gm  A#
So you don't know were you're going, and you wanna talk
        D#                                  Gm     A#    D#  Gm  A#
And you feel like you're going where you've been before
         D#                           Gm    A#         D#  Gm  A#
You tell anyone who'll listen but you feel ignored
D#                          Gm       A#
Nothing's really making any sense at all
      D#          F
Let's talk, let's talk
      D#          F     Gm
Let's talk, let's talk
