Coldplay – Glass Of Water

VERSE 1: 
 D           Asus4  A       D  
Scared of losing all the time 
     Asus4   A    D  
He wrote it in a letter 
   Asus4   A       D     Asus4  A           
He was a friend of mine 
 D        Asus4      A        D  
He heard you could see your future 
   Asus4   A        D   
Inside a glass of water 
    Asus4   A         D    Asus4  A  
The ripples and the rhymes 
And he asked 'Will I see heaven in mine?' 
 
D - Asus4 - A }x2
 
VERSE 2: 
     D      Asus4    A     D  
Oh that is just the way it was, 
 Asus4   A        D  
Nothing could be better, 
     Asus4  A    D   Asus4 A  
and nothing ever was. 
     D        Asus4  A        D    
Oh, they say you can see your future 
   Asus4   A        D    
inside a glass of water. 
    Asus4   A         D  Asus4 A  
The riddles and the rhymes 
 G                          A  
   Will I see heaven in mine? 
 A (several strums) 
Ohhh-ohhh-ohhh-ohhh-I 
 
Chorus 1: 
 D   F#m  Bm  G       D F#m Bm G   
Son,            don't ask, 
         D       F#m      Bm   G      D   F#m Bm G  
Neither how full    nor empty is your glass 
 D   F#m  Bm   G      D F#m Bm G   
Cling         to the mast 
             D      F#m  Bm    G           Asus4 G 
Spend your whole life    living in your past 
       A (several strums) 
Going nowhere fast 
 
D - Asus4 - A }x4
 
VERSE 3: 
 D       Asus4  A    D   
So he wrote it on a wall 
     Asus4  A      D        Asus4  A      D  Asus4 A 
The hollow-est of halos is no  halo at all 
 D    Asus4  A         D  
Televisions selling plastic 
 Asus4  A       D         Asus4   A       D Asus4 A    
Figurines of leaders saying nothing at all 
           G  
And we chimed, stars in heaven align 
 A (several strums) 
Ohhh-ohhh-ohhh-ohhh-I 
 
Chorus 2: 
 D   F#m  Bm  G       D  F#m Bm G   
Son,            don't ask, 
         D       F#m      Bm   G      D   F#m Bm G  
Neither how full    nor empty is your glass 
 D   F#m  Bm   G      D  F#m Bm G   
Cling         to the mast 
             D      F#m  Bm    G             Asus4 G                
Spend your whole life    living in your past 
       A (several strums) 
Going nowhere fast

Outro: 
    D                                   A  
And what are we drinking when we're done? 
           G    D  
Glasses of water. 
 
End on D
