Coldplay - Violet Hill: chords

      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?

Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
And a fox became God
Priests clutched onto bibles
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
And a cross was held aloft

Chorus:
Bury me in armor
When I'm dead and hit the ground
My nerves are poles that unfroze
And if you love me, won't you let me know?

         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?

           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?
