Intro:

    Three (3) times riff.

   After first riff, supporting guitar playing 

   I don't have the other guitar solo. Too difficult for me.:)

   Em - G - Em - G - Em - A - Em - A - G (covering whole riff)





1. Verse:



   C                        D     

   So, so you think you can tell? 



               Am                   G

   Heaven from hell? Blue skys from pain.



                        D                        C

   Can you tell a green field, from a cold steel rail



                  Am                         G

   A smile from a vail? Do you think you can tell.





2. Verse:

   

   G                       C

   And did they get you to trade?



                   D                     Am

   Your heroes for ghosts. Hot ashes for trees.



                     G     

   And hot air for a cool breeze.



                    D                   C

   Cold comfort for change. And did you exchange



                          Am                           G

   A 'walk on part in the war', for a lead role in the cage.





Interlude:



   Riff 1 (one) time.





Chorus:



   C                               D

   How I wish, how I wish you were here.



   

             Am                        

   Were just two lost souls, swimming in a fish bowl.

 

   G                 D 

   Year, after year. Running over the same old ground.



   C                                Am                   G    

   What have we found? The same old fears. Wish you were here.



Outtro:



   Riff x2.

   

Optional: 

   Do like Roger! Sing. "ooooooooooooh. How I wish you were here..." several times.

   at the same time as you play the riff one more time.





Enjoy!
