THE WALL SONG- Crosby and Nash

E1 E2 E3 E2 E1 E2 E3 E2

E1 E2 E3 E2 E1 E2 E3 E2 E1 E2 E3 E2 E1 E2 E3 E2
You are walking, you've always been walking
A Asus2 A5 Asus2F# A
Stumbling half-blinded and dry as the wind
A Asus2 A BbE/A A Asus2 A5 Asus2F# A
That strafes you and leaves you to lie in the sand
A Asus2 A5 Asus2F# A
And the wall stretches endless beside you to nowhere
A A11 BbE/A A A11 A/C# Em G A
This wall that you've been trying to cross for years
G A11 A G A11 E1 E2 E3 E2
This fence made of fears, no one hears

You see a door, ah such a great open door
You know that your eyes tellin' lies, still a chance
A shamblin' run, a ridiculous dance
Like a scarecrow that's hung up to dry on a fence pole
And there's a space like vacuum waiting inside you
For you to get through, to the blue

You scent the water, fresh clean grass, food and water
Your breath is scraping your brain into dust
Your rusty old engine is ready to bust
You cannot believe it that they would not trust you
The door is wavering, is that your eyes?
Are they still telling lies? What are lies?
