Yellow by Coldplay free Harmonica Tabs & Lesson

Hello! In today's harmonica lesson we're learning to play Yellow by British pop band Coldplay on an C diatonic harmonica. The original track would require a B harmonica. (You can follow the tab with a harmonica in the key of C or any other key.) There are a few bends so not ideal for beginner harmonica players although you can substitute some notes if you can't bend them.

Here are the harp tabs:
