    Revisiting another old cover today! I first arranged this one before I started making videos, but recorded it on baritone back in 2016 (by complete coincidence, I posted that video 5 years ago today!). While the baritone version has been quite successful, it’s one of those songs I’ve been dying to revisit it for a while now. This version sees a bunch of subtle refinements that bring it much closer to how I imagined it (plus the bridge section I never included before). Hope you enjoy it 🙏
    P.S. If I were to cover another Coldplay song, which would you like to hear? 🤔

    This is so unbelievable pretty. Thank you. I Iike how you have the approach of 'less is more' in your arrangements and don't overdo the percussion effects of so many modern fingerstyle arrangements. You lay so much feeling into your music. A real inspiration.

    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 set you apart.
    Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions,
    Oh lets go back to the start.
    Running in circles, Comin' up Tails
    Heads on a science apart.
    Nobody said it was easy,
    Oh It's such a shame for us to part.
    Nobody said it was easy,
    No one ever said it would be this hard.
    Oh take me back to the start.
    I was just guessin' at numbers and figures,
    Pulling your puzzles apart.
    Questions of science, science and progress
    Do not speak as loud as my heart.
    So tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
    Oh and I rush to the start.
    Runnin' in circles, Chasin' up Tails
    Comin' back as we are
    Nobody said it was easy,
    Oh it's such a shame for us to part.
    Nobody said it was easy,
    No one ever said it would be so hard.

    You are very talented bro. I'm not really good in guitar but I'm trying my best tho. What I love most is watching someone who play guitar passionately specifically doing fingerstyle. They are just simply amazing. I'm a new subscriber here by the way.
