Dm7 Dm7 Bb Bb F F Fsus2 Fsus2
Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry, you don't know how lovely you are
Dm7 Dm7 Bb Bb F F Fsus2 Fsus2
I had to find you, tell you I need you, tell you I set you apart
Dm7 Dm7 Bb Bb F F Fsus2 Fsus2
Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions, oh lets go back to the start
Dm7 Dm7 Bb Bb F F Fsus2 Fsus2
Running in circles, coming up tails, heads on a science apart



Chorus:

Bb Bb
Nobody said it was easy
F F Fsus2 Fsus2
It's such a shame for us to part
Bb Bb
Nobody said it was easy
F F Fsus2 Fsus2 C C
No one ever said it would be this hard
F F Bb Bb F F
Oh, take me back to the start

Dm7 Dm7 Bb Bb F F Fsus2 Fsus2


Dm7 Dm7 Bb Bb F F Fsus2 Fsus2
I was just guessing at numbers and figures, pulling your puzzles apart
Dm7 Dm7 Bb Bb F F Fsus2 Fsus2
Questions of science, science and progress, do not speak as loud as my heart

Dm7 Dm7 Bb Bb F F Fsus2 Fsus2
Don't tell you love me, come back and haunt me, oh what a rush to the start
Dm7 Dm7 Bb Bb F F Fsus2 Fsus2
Running in circles, chasing our tails, Coming back as we are



Chorus:

Bb Bb
Nobody said it was easy
F F Fsus2 Fsus2
Oh It's such a shame for us to part
Bb Bb
Nobody said it was be easy
F F Fsus2 Fsus2 C C
No one ever said it would be so hard
F F Bb Bb F F
I'm going back to the start


Dm7 Dm7 Bb Bb F F Fsus2 Fsus2


OH...OOOOOH

It sounds good to me if you play this and hold down a capo on the a string third fret (or just use your pinky) for the whole song. This is more accurate, but that sounds prettier. I may tab it out if I get the time.

About this song: The Scientist

Chris Martin wrote "The Scientist" after listening to George Harrison's "All Things Must Pass". In an interview with Rolling Stone, Martin revealed that while working on the band's second album, A Rush of Blood to the Head, he knew that the album was missing something. One night, during a stay in Liverpool, Martin found an old piano that was out of tune. He wanted to work on George Harrison's song "Isn't It a Pity", but he could not manage to do so.
