Artist: Coldplay
Title: Billie Jean (cover)
Listen to the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpjibsEoR5Q
Because I couldn't find a tab of the Billie Jean cover by Coldplay, I watched a
videoclip of Billie Jean
over and over again, until I got it.
The way Coldplay performs this song is in one word: Brilliant!
Leave a comment if you think something is wrong with this tab.
This is the part John Buckland plays:
Riff A
e|--------------------------|
B|--------------------------|
G|--------------------------| Repeat 12 times.
D|--------------------------|
A|---10----8-10-8-----------|
E|------10--------10-8-10---|
Then the next riff comes in, after Chris Martin sings: 'She said I'm the one..' in
the 1st verse.
Riff B
e|--------------------------|
B|--------------------------|
G|--------------------------| Play this riff 2 times.
D|---10----8-10-8-----------|
A|------10--------10-8-10---|
E|--------------------------|
After Riff B, play Riff A again.
There are 2 other guitars (Will and Guy) in this song. They strum a few chords
while John plays the riff.
This is the part of Will in the verse:
Bm C# Dm C#
e|--------------------------|
B|----3---6-------6---6-----|
G|----4---6-------7---6-----| Repeat the whole verse,
D|----4---6-------7---6-----| Listen to the song for the rhythm.
A|----2---4-------5---4-----|
E|--------------------------|
The outro (solo) by John Buckland:
e|-----------------|-----------------|
B|-----------------|-----------------|
G|---5-5h7-5---5h7-|----5h7-5---5h7--| Repeat 7 times.
D|-----------8-----|--8-------8------|
A|-----------------|-----------------|
E|-----------------|-----------------|
e|---------------|
B|---------------|
G|-----5h7\\--|
D|---8-----------|
A|---------------|
E|---------------|
I hope you liked my tab of Coldplay's Billie Jean.
