Wish You Were Here- Pink Floyd feat. John Lennon chords
Start Jamming...
[D]
I [E] [G] read the news today, oh boy,
[Bm] [G] about a lucky man [D] who [G] made the grade.
[D] [Em] And though the news [D] was rather [A] [E] sad, [G] well I just had to laugh.
[A]
[G] I saw the photograph, he [Em]
blew his mind out in [G] a car.
[Em]
He didn't notice that [G] the lights had changed.
[Em]
A crowd of people stood [A] and said,
[G]
They've seen his face before.
Nobody was really sure that he was in my house.
[C]
How I wish, how I wish you [D] were here.
We're [Am] just two lost souls swimming in a [G] fishbowl.
Year after year, [D]
running over the same old ground.
[C]
But have we found the [G] same [Am] old fears?
I wish [G] you were here.
[D] [Em]
I read the news today, [D] oh [G] boy,
[D] [Em]
Four thousand holes in his breath [G] and a lucky cheer.
[D] [Em]
And though the holes were [A] rather small,
[D] [Em]
They had to count them all.
[A]
And I don't know how many holes it takes to kill a [Bm] owl, [G] but
I'm still in [Em] love with you.
