verse 1 C D So, so you think you can tell Am Heaven from Hell G Blue skies from pain? D 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? verse 2 C And did they get you to trade D Your heroes for ghosts? Am Hot ashes for trees? G Hot air for a cool breeze? D Cold comfort for change? C And did you exchange Am A walk on part in the war G For a leading role in a cage? Em D G Em G Em A Em A G verse 3 C D How I wish, how I wish you were here Am We're just two lost souls Swimming in a fish bowl G Year after year D Running over the same old ground C What have we found? Am The same old fears G Em Wish you were here
