[Verse 1]
 
G             C    C       D/F#
So, so you think, you can tell.
D            Am
Heaven from hell,
Am                G
Blue skies from pain.
G                    D/F#
Can you tell a green field,
D                  C
From a cold steel rail,
C               Am
A smile from a veil?
Am                     G
Do you think you can tell?
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
G                      C
Did they get you to trade,
C                  D/F#
Your heroes for ghosts,
D               Am
Hot ashes for trees,
Am                    G
Hot air for a cool breeze,
G                 D/F#
Cold comfort for change?
D           C
Did you exchange?
C                     Am
A walk on part in the war,
Am                       G
For a lead role in a cage?

[Verse 3]
 
G        C
How I wish,
C                D/F#
how I wish you were here,
D                   Am
We're just two lost souls,
Am                 G
swimming in a fish bowl,
G          D/F#
Year after year,
D                             C
Running over the same old ground,
C               D
What have we found?
D            Am
The same old fears.
 Am              G
Wish you were here.

Only one correction. In verse 3, Am goes over "two" in "two lost souls."
