Capo 2nd fret
[G] [Em7]
So, so you think you can tell
[G] [Em7]
Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain?
[G] [Em7] [A7sus4] [A7]
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail,
[C] [D] [Am7] [G] [D/F#]
a smile from a veil, do you think you can tell?
[G] [Em7]
Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
[G] [Em7]
Hot ashes for trees, hot air for a cool breeze,
[G] [Em7]
Cold comfort for change, and did you exchange
[A7sus4] [A7] [C]
a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
[G] [Em7]
How I wish, how I wish you were here
[G] [Em7]
We’re just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl,
[G] [Em7]
year after year, running over the same old ground,
[A7sus4] [A7] [C]
what have we found? The same old fears, wish you were here.
