Lyrics and Music: Pink Floyd
[Intro]
Em7 G Em7 G Em7 A7sus4 Em7 A7sus4 G x2
[Verse 1]
C D/F#
So, so you think you can tell,
Am/E G
Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain.
D/F# C Am
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail, a smile from a veil,
G
Do you think you can tell?
[Verse 2]
C D/F#
Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts,
Am/E G D/F#
Hot ashes for trees, hot air for a cool breeze, cold comfort for change,
C Am
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war
G
for a lead role in a cage?
[Instrumental]
Em7 G Em7 G Em7 A7sus4 Em7 A7sus4 G
[Verse 3]
C D/F#
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
Am/E G D/F#
We’re just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
C
Running over the same old ground. What have we found?
Am G
The same old fears. Wish you were here!
[Instrumental]
