Coldplay — Lost (ver 2) Tab
TITLE : Lost
WRITTEN BY : ?
PERFORMED BY : COLDPLAY
ALBUM : Viva La Difference ?—)
INTERPRETED BY: Monsty :)
Hmm ... It's debatable whether the "G" is a "Bm" in the verses.
— Personally I like the "Bm" better in some places.
I'm tempted to play it all thru the verses instead of
the "G" chord. — KISS
I do, however, concede to those with a "keener ear",
that it might indeed be the chord of "G" on the record !
— Try the "Bm" though, I think you'll like it :)
N.B. [...] = alternative chord

An alternative way to play this Guitar Break is to use the
——————————— ————————————
2nd string ONLY and slide the notes up & down.
This is perhaps not so easy on an acoustic guitar where the
neck usually meets the body at the 14th fret.
But is quite effective on an electric guitar. N.B. P = Pull—Off
— I'm sure you can think of other alternatives :)
BTW from the 5th to the 15th is a big slide
— remember to hit the breaks !!!
1st time only
