Clocks - Coldplay
Although this tune is mainly a piano piece, lots of people were requesting it so being a pianist
as well as a guitarist, I thought I'd tab it for you. I suggest as it is Eb that you play it with
a capo on the 1st fret.
NOTE THAT THE TAB IS FOR A GUITAR WITHOUT A CAPO!!!
Chords - with capo 1st fret
