Band: Coldplay
Song: Moses
Album: None (Live in Dallas – 31st Jan 2003)
Words & Music: Guy Berrymen, Jon Buckland, Will Champion & Chris Martin
From: Zachary
E-mail: [email protected]
Note: Tabs are based on the hearing the song and listening to two
different versions of Moses. I use a lot from the live in Dallas
version (it’s a full version) & the other is Chris alone (that’s
just the 1st verse & 1 chorus). In this song I picked up the bass
guitar first, the only the guitars.
Standard Tuning: EADGbe
Chords Used:
Cmaj Amin Fmaj Gmaj Bb Cmaj7 G(barr)
e| 0 0 1 3 0 0 3
b| 1 1 1 3 3 0 3

D| 2 2 3 0 3 5 5

E| 0 X X 3 X X 3
Note: Okay, I’ll give you guys the bass guitar tab just to let you have
some understanding of how it is going to be. But listen to the
song too. The electric guitar 1 could be playing Cmaj7 Gbarr too.

not really the same. It’s just a progression of the lead tabs
(The on which the 2nd guitarist always do).

electric 2.

Note: The tabs is just a simple one. It’s for sure I can’t trace every
single thing that Chris & Jonny play. It’s just that, when you’re
in the song you’ll know what to do. This is my advice, listen to
the song first, then enjoy!
