Transpose chords:
Intro : [
1st verse :
Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry, you don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you, tell you I'll set you apart
Tell me your secrets and nurse me your questions, oh lets go back to the start
Running in circles, coming up tails, heads only science apart
Chorus :
Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was be easy
None ever said it would be this hard
(
Oh, take me back to the start
[
2nd verse :
I was just guessing at numbers and figures, pulling the puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress, do not speak as loud as my heart
Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me, oh what a rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails, coming back as we are
Chorus :
Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was be easy
None ever said it would be this hard
(
Oh, take me back to the start

@mycozy2000 so you mean to add +2 to this version? Like this?:
https://www.ukulele-tabs.com/uke-songs/coldplay/the-scientist-uke-tab-12139.html?steps=+2
If so it's +4.5 above original tuning in the end. Or did you want to add 2 to original version? Because you need to transpose this version -1 in this case, and it's way more complicated i think.

Nevermind actually, the screen was showing the original as +2, the original is the easiest.

Probably the nicest version on ukulele-tabs so far, there's a nicer version out there based around EM7, C, G and Dsus4

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.
