How to Play "In My Place" by Coldplay on Guitar chords
Start Jamming...
Hey, Coldplay time in my place.
Such a great song.
Vogue's such a wonderful emotion too.
We are on the capo second fret because this is Coldplay.
We're going to add a little flavor, popping our capo up on the second fret.
The song's in A, so I think he plays with the capo on the second fret because it makes it easier.
The first chord is G, [G#] and we're kind of doing a walk down, [F#m] but it's not [E] that D [A] walk down,
he's still just keeping his G chords here.
[E] Kind of doing a walk down to [C#m] a B minor, [F#m] [Bm] then a D7.
So [A] here's the progression.
[E]
[A] [F#m] [C#m]
[A] So basically it's four chords, and then you repeat those four chords, but the second chords
you're just going to change those.
So first chord's always G, and that is third fret, second fret, open, open, third fret,
third fret.
Remember, we have our capo on the second fret, so it sounds like an A.
So here we go.
G, then we're just going to move [A] the string down to the second [E] fret.
We're going to play this like a G with an F sharp bass as our second chord, and then
we're [C#] going to B minor, which is second fret on the A string, fourth fret, fourth [C#m] fret,
third fret, second fret.
[G#m] And you're just holding your finger [C#m] down.
[E] And then a D7, which is open D, [Bm] second fret, first fret, [E] second fret, like that.
And then [A] basically you repeat it, except instead of going down, what we're going [F#m] to do is do
an E minor in the place of that second chord.
And then [C#m] to B minor, [E] D7.
[A] So all together, [E] [C#m] [B]
[A] [F#m] E minor, [C#m] then B minor.
[B]
[Em] [C#]
[B] So super easy, we are on the fifth fret [F#] of the high E string, [E] seventh fret, and the twelfth fret.
And we just hit the [Em] twelfth, five, seven, five, seven, twelve, five, seven, five, seven,
twelve.
[A] Such a simple melody.
[E] [C#] [B]
[F#m] [C#m]
[D] The chorus, we're going to hit a big C.
[A] G.
[E]
This is a D, back [D] to a C.
Yeah,
[A] must [E] we wait [D] for it?
Yeah, [A] to G, [E] [D] D, C.
Go to [E] that awesome D7 that I taught you, back into reverse.
[Bm] [A]
I was [F#m] lost, [C#m] oh yeah, [E] oh [A] yeah.
And that is [F#] it, In My Place.
Super simple, you have your verse, then you have your big chorus, and then that's it.
Those are the only two parts.
So go for it, guys.
