Key: B
Introduction:
E F#/A#
So, so you think you can tell
C#m/G# B F#/A#
Heaven from hell, Blue skies from pain. Can you tell a green field
E C#m B
From a cold steel rail, A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell?
E F#/A# C#m/G#
Did they get you to trade, Your heroes for ghosts, Hot ashes for trees,
B F#/A# E
Hot air for a cool breeze, Cold comfort for change? Did you exchange
C#m B
A walk on part in the war, For a lead role in a cage?
E F#/A#
How I wish, how I wish you were here,
C#m/G# B F#/A#
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, Year after year,
E C#m
Running over the same old ground, What have we found? The same old fears,
B
Wish you were here.
