"In My Place"
by Nick Kojucharov


This is a great song and the new single from Coldplay's upcoming album "A Rush of Blood to the Head." I am pretty sure that it is 100% accurate.
ENJOY!

Gtr I (E A D G B E) - 'Clean Tone Gtr1'
Gtr II (E A D G B E) - 'Clean Tone Gtr2'
Gtr III (E A D G B E) - 'Clean Gtr3 *Capo on 2nd Fret'

*If you don't have a Capo to play the parts for Guitar 3, play those chords
up there instead.(Gtr.3)

Here's is the whole song, this song is great. This song makes you feel a
certain special way, that's why I was inspired to post it on this website.
There's a way to play this song using just 2 guitars. Play the Gtr2 parts
while using a delay effect, it has to be around 417ms to produce the same
sound effect that Gtr.2 makes, the effect level should be 60%, the amount
of feedback shound be around 0-10%,and it should be a single delay or mono.
*If you don't have a Capo to play the parts for Guitar 3, play those chords
up there instead.(Gtr.3)

*Note Before you start playing*
If you are not used to reading this kind of tabs (symbols) please read all
the directions that are found at the end of this (Power)Tab. Enjoy!

I have tabbed this song out for two guitars which may make it seem complicated on
screen however if you print it off and use a highlighter pens to distinguish the
guitar 1 parts with the guitar 2 parts it will be easier to follow alternately you
can email me at deanswift1@hotmail.com requesting the tab for each guitar individually
thanks, Dean.
