FIX YOU ~ COLDPLAY
Tabbed by Mellowecho
For the most part this song is primarily played on the piano and lead guitar - all I have is an acoustic guitar so that's they way I'm going to tab it. If you listen carefully you can hear the rhythm guitar parts on some of the later verses and choruses.
Tuning - Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb (if you want to play along to the CD - if not standard works ok)

INTRO
When you try your best but you don't suc_ceed
When you get what you want but not what you ne_ed
When you feel so tired but you can't sle_ep
Stuck in reve__rse___
And the tears come streaming down your fa_ce
When you lose something you can't repla_ce
When you love someone but it goes to wa_ste
Could it be wo__rse?___
Lights will gu__ide you home
And ig _ ni _ te your bones
And I will try____ to fix you
And high up above or down belo_w
When you're too in love to let it go__
But if you never try you'll never kn_ow
Just what you're wo__rth___
Lights will gu__ide you home
And ig _ ni _ te your bones
And I will try____ to fix you
(Srumming pattern changes to quick down-strokes)
Tears stream down your face

Tears stream down your face
And I
Tears stream down your face
I promise you that I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I
(Srumming pattern changes back to original slow strum)
Lights will gu__ide you home
And ig _ ni _ te your bones
And I will try____ to fix you
