Verse 1
    A                 G                                D
How long before I get in, before it starts, before I begin
    A                 G                                    D
How long before you decide, or before I know what it feels like
      A              G	   D
Where to, where do I go, if you never try then you'll never know
        A                 G                                         D
And how long do I have to climb up on this side of this mountain of mine

Riff:  [Repeat Intro]

Verse 2
Look up, I look up at night, planets are moving at the speed of light
Climb up, up in the trees, every chance that you get, is a chance you seize
How long am I gonna stand, with my head stuck under the sand
I’ll start before I can stop, or before I see things the right way up

Pre-Chorus 1
G               A               Bm7
   And all that noise, all that sound
G                A                  Bm7
   And all those places that I have found

Chorus 1
    G                      Bm7                D/F#                  G
And birds go flying at the speed of sound, to show you how it all began
G                          Bm7                         F#m                     G
Birds keep flying from the underground and if you could see it then you'd understand
            F#m                     G
Oh when you see it then you'll understand

Riff:  [Repeat Intro]

Verse 3
Ideas that you'll never find, all the inventors could never design
All the buildings that you put up, of Japan and China were all lit up
The first sign that I couldn't read, all the light that I couldn't see
Some things you have to believe, but others are puzzles, puzzling me

Pre-Chorus 1 Chorus, 1 and Riff (As above)

Pre-Chorus 2
G            A                       Bm7                            E7
   All those signs, I knew what they meant, some things you can't invent
G           A                  Bm7   E7
   Some get made, and some get sent  Ooh
Chorus 2
G                      Bm7                   D/F#              G
Birds go flying at the speed of sound to show you how it all began
G                          Bm7                      F#m                    G
Birds keep flying from the underground if you could see it then you'd understand
            F#m                     G
Oh when you see it then you'll understand


Notes:
-	Coldplay plays Em7 instead of G, but I like the sound of G
-	They also play the chords up and down the neck using various chord voicings,
but the song sounds great if only played in the first position
