C                        D
So, so you think you can tell,
            Am                     G
heaven from hell?  Blue skies from pain?
                     D
Can you tell a green field,
                  C                     Am
from a cold steel rail?  A smile from a veil?

                     G
Do you think you can tell?
                    C                      D
Did they get you to trade, your heroes for ghosts?
              Am
Hot ashes for trees?
              G                              D
Hot air for a cool breeze?  Cold comfort for change

              C
And did you exchange,
                      Am                        G
a walk-on part in the war, for a lead role in a cage...

(Guitar solo-repeat Intro)

C                               D
How I wish, how I wish you were here
           Am                                   G
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fishbowl,
               D
year after year
                                C
Running over the same old ground,
                                Am
what have we found the same old fears?

              G
Wish you were here
