Go Fishing from Roger Waters
The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking
Transcribed by D. Nadelberg
The album version is very densely arranged and orchistrated, so this is not
ecessarily a very pared down approximation I worked out for acoustic. No
sound effects or talking, I=D5m afraid. I have tried to compensate.
In the progression which begins with the G, hitting all those chords nice
and hard and letting them ring out makes them sound a bit like bells.
Play it just like the crashing progression from In the Flesh off The
Wall.
Also, I toggle to Dadd9 and back for all my end-of-the-verse Ds, to great
effect.
This is my first submission. Ideas, comments, etc, let's talk about it
Intro:
Em Em7 C D (Dadd9)
Bm7
We set out in the Spring =
D
With a trunkful of books about everything.
Bm7
About solar devices
D
And how nice natural childbirth is.
Cmaj7/E
We cut down some trees and trailed our ideals
B7
Through the forest glade.
Cmaj7/E
We dammed up the stream and the kids cooled their heels
B7
In the fishing pool we made.
Em Em7
We held hands and we exchanged bands
C Cmaj7 D
And we practically lived off the land.
Bm7
You adopted a fox cub
D
Whose mother was somebody's coat.
Bm7
You fed him by hand, then snuggled him down
D
In the grandfather bed, while I wrote.
Cmaj7/E
And we grew our own maize
B7
And I only occasionally went into town
Cmaj7/E
To stock up on antibiotics
B7
And shells for the shotgun that I kept around.
Em Em7
I told the kids stories while you worked your loom
C Cmaj7 D
And the sun went down sooner each day.
Bridge:
G Em7/F# Em Em7 C Cmaj7 D Dadd9 (2x)
Bm7 D (2x)
Cmaj7/E B7 (2x)
Bm7
Then the leaves all fell down,
D
And the crops all turned brown. It was over.
Bm7
As the first snowflakes fell
D
I realized all was not well in the camp.
Cmaj7/E
The kids caught bronchitis,
B7
The space heater ran out of diesel,
Cmaj7/E
One weekend a friend from the east
B7
(Rot his soul) stole your heart.
Em Em7
I said, =D2Fuck it then, take the kids back to town,
C Cmaj7 D Dadd9
Maybe I'll see you around.=D3
G Em7/F# Em Em7 C Cmaj7 D Dadd9 (2x)
G Em7/F# Em Em7
And so leaving all our hopes and dreams
C Cmaj7 D =
To the wind and the rain,
Dadd9 G Em7/F# =
Taking only our stash,
Em Em7
Left our litter and trash
C Cmaj7
And set out =
D Dadd9 G (etc. to fade)
On the road again.
Bm7 xx0202
Dadd9 xx0230
Cmaj7/E 032000
B7 x01202
Em7/F# 2200xx
Em7 020000
