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.
