A F#m      G
  Jupiter, named for

To be exactly who

She saw in

see
A F#m      G
  Jupiter, named

All of the angels

come and say

And it's a

You have to

How to play Jupiter: key, chords and progression

Jupiter by Coldplay is built around B minor (two sharps: F♯, C♯), with 8 chords in all: A, F#m, G, Bm, D, C#, Am and F.

Listen for Bm – A – F#m – G (i – VII – v – VI in B minor): the song comes back to it again and again. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Good to know: on guitar, F#m, Bm, C# and F need a barre or movable shape. Take the change into them slowly at first; piano and ukulele players have it easier.
