Coldplay - Violet Hill Chords

[verse 1]
      C#m
Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
          A           F#m
There was snow, white snow
  C#m
Clearly I remember from the windows
                            A
They were watching while we froze
        F#m
Down below

[chorus]
          A
When the future's architectured
     B                     C#m
By a carnival of idiots on show
                 B
You'd better lie low
       A    G#m E         C#m  B  C#m
If you love me, won’t you let me know?

[verse 2]
      C#m
Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
      A          F#m
And a fox became God
 C#m
Priests clutched onto bibles
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
         A             F#m
And the cross was held aloft

[chorus]
A
Bury me an armour
         B
When I’m dead and hit the ground
              C#m            B
My nerves are poles that unfroze
       A    G#m E         C#m  B  C#m
If you love me, won’t you let me know?

[solo] x2
C#m  C#m  A  F#m

[chorus]
        A
I don’t want to be a soldier
       B
Who the captain of some sinking ship
     C#m
Would stow
    B
Far below
           A    G#m E         C#m  B  C#m
So, if you love me, why’d you let me go?

[outro]
          E    A       E  C#m  B    A
I took my love down to Violet Hill
B        C#m     G#m       A
There we sat    in the    snow
A   B    C#m   F#m      E  C#m  B
All that time she was silent still
    G#m     A    G#m E         C#m   B    A
Said if you love me, won’t you let  me   know?
G#m       A   G#m E         C#m  B  C#m
If you love me, won’t you let me know?
