Wish you were here
| C | D |
| So, so you think you can | tell, |
| Ami | G | |
| Heaven from | Hell, blue skies from | pain. |
| D | C | |
| Can you tell a | green field from a cold steel | rail, |
| Am | G | |
| a smile from a | veil, do you think you can | tell? |
| C | D | |
| And did they get you to | trade your heroes for | ghosts, |
| Ami | G | |
| hot ashes for | trees, hot air for | cool breeze, |
| D | C | |
| cold comfort for | change, and did you ex | change |
| Am | G | |
| walk on part in the | war for a lead role in a | cage? |

| How I wish, how I wish you were | here. |
| Ami | G | |
| We're just | two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, | year after year, |
| D | C |
| Running over the same old ground. | What have we found? |
| Ami | G | |
| The same old | fears. Wish you were | here! |
