The Final Cut by Pink Floyd
The Final Cut
Capo 3
D A
Through the fish eyed lens of tear stained eyes
G D
I can barely define the shape of this moment in time
D A
And far from flying high in clear blue skies
G D
I'm spiraling down, to the hole in the ground where I hide
G D
If you negotiate the minefield in the drive,
G D
and beat the dogs, and cheat the cold electronic eyes,
G A Bm
and if you make it past the shotguns in the hall,
Em7
Dial the combination... open the priesthole
A
And if I'm in, I'll tell (BOOM!)
F#m D
There's a kid who had a big hallucination
F#m A
Making love to girls in magazines
G Bm
He wonders if you're sleeping with your new found faith...
Em7
Could anybody love him?
A D
Or is it just a crazy dream?
A G D
D A
And if I show you my dark side
G D
Will you still hold me tonight?
D A
And if I open my heart to you,
G
Show you my weak side...
D
What would you do?
G D
Would you sell your story to Rolling Stone?
G D
Would you take the children away, and leave me alone?
G A Bm
And smile in reassurance as you whisper down the phone,
Em7
Would you send me packing?
A D
...Or would you take me home?
F#m D F#m A G Bm Em7
D
F#m D
Thought I oughta bare my naked feelings,
F#m A
Thought I oughta tear the curtain down
G
I held the blade in trembling hands,
Bm
Prepared to make it but...
Em7
Just then the phone rang.
E
I never had the nerve to make The Final Cut
