This was a cover of the old Pink Floyd song done in 1975.
However, I think this acoustic version sounds much better.
Ther is a nice harmonica that accompanies this song, but I
do not know how to play harmonica. Sorry if the lyrics are
off!

1st Verse
So,
so you think could tell,
heaven from hell,
blue skies from pink.
Can you tell a great fear,
from a cold steel rail,
a smile from a vail,
do you think can tell.
Did they get you to trade,
your heroes for ghosts,
hot ashes for trees,
hot air for a cool breeze.
Cold comfort for change,
did you exchange,
a walk on part in the war,
for a lead role in the cage.
Interlude (Harmonica solo)

2nd Verse
How I wish,
how I wish you were here,
where just two lost souls,
living in a fish bowl.
Year after year,
going over the same old ground,
you have to further the same old fear,
wish you were here.
I, wish you were here.
I, wish you were here.
I, wish you were here.
I, wish you were here.
That's It! E-mail me with comments. I would like to know who is getting
this stuff.
