Coldplay "Speed Of Sound" A Em Em7 D . A Em7 D How long before I get in . Before it starts, before I begin . How long before we decide . Before I know what it feels like . Where to? Where do I go? . If you've never tried then you'll never know . How long do I have to climb . Up on this side of this mountain of mine A Em Em7 D A Em7 D 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 start before I can stop . Before I see things the right way up G A Bm7 All that noise, all that sound . All those places that I have found G Bm And birds go flying at the speed of sound . To show you how it all began . Birds came flying from the underground F#m G If you could see it then you'd understand A Em Em7 D A Em7 D Ideas that you'll never find . Or the inventors could never design . The buildings that you put up . Japan and China... All lit up . The sign that I couldn't read . Or the light that I couldn't see . Some things you have to believe . But others are puzzles, puzzling me G A Bm7 All that noise, all that sound . All those places that I have found G Bm And birds go flying at the speed of sound D G To show you how it all began G Bm Birds came flying from the underground F#m G If you could see it then you'd understand . Ah, when you see it then you'll understand
