Wish you were here
do re
So, so ya think you can tell
la- sol
heaven from hell, blue skies from pain,
re
can you tell a green field
do
from a cold steel rail?
la-
A smile from a veil?
sol
Do ya think ya can tell?
do
did they get you to trade,
re
your heròs for ghosts,
la-
hot ashes for trees
sol
hot air for a cool breeze,
re
cold comfort for change,
do
did you exchange,
la-
a walk on part in the war,
sol
for a lead role in a cage?
do re
How I wish, how I wish you were here,
la-
Were just two lost soles
sol
swimming in a fish bowl,
re
year after year,
do la-
Running over the same old ground,
but have we found the same old fears,
sol
wish you were here
