  THE FINAL CUT
  
  Pink Floyd
  
  (Waters)
  
  
  
  F                                          F/C   C
  
  Through the fish-eyed lens of tear stained eyes____
  
        Bb add9                                   F
  
  I can barely define the shape of this moment in time.
  
      F                                  F/C   C
  
  And far from flying high in clear blue skies___,
  
      Bb add9                                           F
  
  I'm spiralling down to the hole in the ground where I hide.
  
  
  
  Bb                   F|| Accoustic guitar
  
  If you negotiate the minefield in the drive,|| begins here.
  
  ||
  
  Bb                                   F|| Listen to record
  
  And beat the dogs and cheat the cold electronic eyes,|| for strumming rhytm.
  
  ||
  
  Bb         C                    Dm||
  
  And if you make it past the shotgun in the hall,||
  
  ||
  
  Gm7||
  
  Dial the combination, open the priesthole||
  
  ||
  
                      C                                 F||
  
  And if I'm in I'll tell you what's behind the wall.|| Stop here.
  
  Am                                   F
  
  There's a kid who had a big hallucination
  
  Am                          C
  
  Making love to girls in magazines.
  
     Bb                                   Dm
  
  He wonders if you're sleeping with your new found faith.
  
  Gm7
  
  Could anybody love him
  
                  /C          F      F/C  C  Bb add9  F
  
  Or is it just a crazy dream___?
  
      F                     C
  
  And if I show you my dark side
  
                      Bb   F
  
  Will you still hold me tonight?
  
      F            C
  
  And if I open my heart to you
  
                       Bb
  
  And show you my weak side,
  
                 F
  
  What would you do?
  
  Bb                                   F
  
  Would you sell your story to Rolling Stone?|| Start again here.
  
  ||
  
  Bb||
  
  Would you take the children away||
  
  ||
  
  F||
  
  And leave me alone?||
  
  ||
  
      Bb           C||
  
  And smile in reassurance||
  
  ||
  
         Dm||
  
  As you whisper down the phone,||
  
  ||
  
  Gm7||
  
  Would you send me packing,|| Stop here.
  
  
  
  /C                   F
  
  Or would you take me home?
  
  
  
  Am  F  Am  C  Bb  Dm  Gm7  /C  F
