Cmaj7  Bm7  Fmaj7  G  D7#9  D7b9


Em7                         A     Asus4  A
    Breathe, breathe in the air.

Em(add9)          Em7          A  Asus4  A
        Don't be afraid to care.

Em(add9)                      A   Asus4  A
        Leave but don't leave me.

Em(add9)                                 Asus4  A
Look around and choose your own ground.


    Cmaj7
For long you live and high you fly

    Bm7
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry

Fmaj7
All you touch and all you see

   G                  D7#9 B7b9
Is all your life will ever be.


Em7             A     A7sus4  A7
    Run, rabbit run.

Em                         A    A7sus4  A
Dig that hole, forget the sun,

Em7                          A     A7sus4  A7
    When at last the work is done

Em7                                  A       Asus4  A
Don't sit down it's time to dig another one.


    Cmaj7
For long you live and high you fly

    Bm7
But only if you ride the tide

    Fmaj7
And balanced on the biggest wave

    G                D7#9        D7b9     Em  [Segue to "On the Run]
You race towards an early grave.



Time

Words and Music by Roger Waters, Nicholas Mason, David Gilmour and Rick Wright


[With clocks, alarms, and bells for approximately 40 seconds]


N.C.(E)  (F#m)  (E)  (F#m)  (E)  (F#m)  (E)  (F#m)  (A)  (E)  (F#m)


F#m                                         A      Asus4  A
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day

E                                               F#m
Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.

                                            A
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town

E                                                    F#m
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.


Dmaj7                          Amaj7
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.

Dmaj7                              Amaj7
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.

Dmaj7                     C#m7
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.

Bm7                          E                              F5
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.


[Guitar solo]

F#m  A  E  F#m  A  F#m  A  E  F#m  A  E  F#m

Dmaj7  Amaj7  Dmaj7  Amaj7  Dmaj7  C#m7  Bm7  E


           F#m                                                A
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking

E                                        F#m
Racing around to come up behind you again.

                                                    A    A7  A7sus4  A7
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,

E                                            F#m
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.


Dmaj7                         Amaj7
Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time.

Dmaj7                               Amaj7
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines

Dmaj7                      C#m
Hanging on in quiet desparation is the English way

    Bm
The time is gone, the song is over,

Bm7                   F/B
Thought I'd something more to say.

Em(add9)  A  A7  A7sus4  A7  Em(add9)  A  A7

Em7      Em         A  Asus4  A
    Home, home again.

Em7                          A    A7
    I like to be here when I can.

Em(add9)                           A  D  A/D
    When I come home cold and tired

G/D      E5                          G5       A  Asus4  A
    It's good to warm my bones beside the fire.

Cmaj7
Far away across the field

Bm7
The tolling of the iron bell

Fmaj7
Calls the faithful to their knees

   G               D7#9  D7b9/Eb  Bm
To hear the softly spoken magic spell.

Money
-----
Words and Music by Roger Waters


Bm7
Money, get away.
Get a good job with more pay and you're okay.
Money, it's a gas.
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash.

F#m7
New car, caviar, four star daydream,

Em                          Bm7
Think I'll buy me a football team.


Bm7
Money, get back.
I'm all right Jack keep your hands off of my stack.
Money, it's a hit.
Don't give me that do goody good bullsh*t.

           F#m7                                 Em
I'm in the high-fidelity first class travelling set

                         Bm7
And I think I need a Lear jet.


Bm7
Money, it's a crime.
Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie.
Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil today.

F#m7                                  Em
But if you ask for a raise it's no surprise that they're

             Bm
giving none away.

Us And Them
-----------
Words by Roger Waters
Music by Roger Waters & Rick Wright


Dsus2  Esus2/D  Dm(maj7)  G/D  Dsus2

Dsus2  Esus2/D  Dm(maj7)  G/D  Dsus2


Dsus    Esus2/D     Dm(maj7)
Us, and them

                         G/D            D  (A/D)  (D)  A/D
And after all we're only ordinary men.

Dsus2   Esus2/D     Dm(maj7)
Me, and you.

                             G/D                    D  A/C#
God only knows it's not what we would choose to do.

Bm
Forward he cried from the rear

              Bm/A  D/G  C
and the front rank died.

    Bm                                    A
The general sat and the lines on the map

D/G                C
moved from side to side.


Dsus2     Esus2/D  Dm(maj7)
Black and blue

                                 G/D            Dsus2
And who knows which is which and who is who.

       Esus2/D  Dm(maj7)
Up and down.

                         G/D                         D  A/D A/C#
And in the end it's only round and round and round.

 Bm
"Haven't you heard? It's a battle of words"

Bm/A  D/G         C
the poster bearer cried.

 Bm
"Listen son", said the man with the gun

 Bm/A    D/G          C
"There's room for you inside."


Dsus2  Esus2/D  Dm(maj7)  G/D  A/D

Dsus2  Esus2/D  Dm(maj7)  G/D  Dsus2

Bm  Bm/A  D/G  C  Bm  A  Bm  Bm/A  G  C


Dsus2    Esus2/D    Dm(maj7)
Down and out

                                 G/D                D
It can't be helped but there's a lot of it about.

Dsus2     Esus2/D   Dm(maj7)
With, without.

                               G/D                  D
And who'll deny it's what the fighting's all about?

Bm
Out of the way, it's a busy day

Bm/A D/G              C
I've got things on my mind.

        Bm
For the want of the price of tea and a slice

Bm/A D/G    C
The old man died.

Brain Damage
------------
Words and Music by Roger Waters


D                           G7/D
  The lunatic is on the grass.

D                           G7/D
  The lunatic is on the grass.

D                       E/D
  Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs.

A7                                 D    Dsus2
Got to keep the loonies on the path.


D                          G7/D
  The lunatic is in the hall.

D                        G7/D
  The lunatics are in my hall.

D                              E/D
  The paper holds their folded faces to the floor

    A7                             D        Dsus2  D7  D9
And every day the paper boy brings more.


G                            A
  And if the dam breaks open many years too soon

    C                                   G
And if there is no room upon the hill

G                                    A7
  And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too

     C                                   G     Bm7  Em7  A  A7
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.


D                          G7/D
  The lunatic is in my head.    (laughter)

D                          G7/D
  The lunatic is in my head

D                     E/D
  You raise the blade, you make the change

A7                                D     Dsus2
  You re-arrange me 'till I'm sane.


D
  You lock the door

    E/D
And throw away the key

        A7                              D   Dsus2   D7  D9
There's someone in my head but it's not me.


G                          A
  And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear

C                                   G
  You shout and no one seems to hear.

                                 A           A7        A
And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes

     C                                   G  Bm7  Em  A7
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.
