Pour Me
Coldplay
Band: Coldplay Song: Poor Me Album: None (Live Version) Words & Music: Guy Berrymen Jon Buckland Will Champion & Chris Martin From: Zachary E-mail: Note: Yeah I know Coldplay don’t really use Standard Tuning. But you can’t say like that because in Parachutes album they don’t use Standard Tuning but in A Rush Of Blood To The Head album they use Standard Tuning all the way. Standard Tuning: EADGbe Note: To tab this song is not easy because Chris Martin sings with "random vocals" (I think that’s the right term which means he sings sharp & shouting type of vocals & changes his tone every now & then) that’s making it confusing. Chords Used: e| X X 0 0 0 3 B| 10 8 0 2 1 3 G| 10 8 0 2 2 0 D| 8 6 2 2 2 0 A| X X 2 0 0 2 E| X X 0 X X 3 Note: I can’t hear any acoustic guitar in the song. The electric guitar is loud & it’s tab all the way. So I put up chords. Intro: Verse 1: Poor me flowing out to sea An opportunity that went by Poor you now whatcha gonna do Whatcha gonna do you just cry Break: Verse 2: Poor you always come and go You’re trying to discern You don’t know why Poor you oh whatcha gonna do Come on love I’ll see it through I don’t know why Note: I can’t get this part. Jonny was using tabs here. I believe he himself can’t get the tune of Chris singing. Haha!
