so, so you think you can tell
Am
heaven from hell
G
blue skys from pain.
D/F#m
can you tell a green field
C
from a cold steel rail?
Am
a smile from a veil?
G
do you think you can tell?
C
and did they get you to trade
D/F#m
your heros for ghosts?
Am
hot ashes for trees?
G
hot air for a cool breeze?
D/F#m
cold comfort for change?
C
and did you exchange
Am
a walk on part in the war
G
for a lead role in a cage?

how i wish, how i wish you were here.
Am
we’re just two lost souls
Am
swimming in a fish bowl,
G
year after year,
D/F#m
running over the same old ground.
C
what have we found?
Am
the same old fears.
G
wish you were here
