Your Possible Pasts

Chords and lyrics for Your Possible Pasts by Pink Floyd

 
They  
G 
flutter behind you your possible pa
Am 
sts,
 
Some  
C 
brighteyed and crazy, some  
D 
frightened and  
G 
lost.
 
A  
G 
warning to anyone still in comm
Am 
and
 
C 
Of their possible  
D 
future, to take  
G 
care.
 
In  
G 
derelict sidings the poppies entwi
Am 
ne
 
With  
C 
cattle trucks lying in  
D 
wait for the next  
G 
time.
 
Em 
Do you remember me, how we used to be,
 
Do you think we shoud be  
D 
closer?
 
She  
G 
stood in the doorway, the ghost of a smi
Am 
le
 
C 
Haunting her face like a  
D 
cheap hotel  
G 
sign.
 
Her  
G 
cold eyes imploring the men in their m
Am 
acs
 
For the  
C 
gold in their bags or the  
D 
knives in their  
G 
backs.
 
G 
Stepping up boldly one put out his h
Am 
and.
 
He said, “
C 
I was just a child then
D 
, now I’m only a  
G 
man.”
 
Em 
Do you remember me, how we used to be,
 
Do you think we should be  
D 
closer?
 
Em 
 
C 
 
Em 
 
C 
 
Em 
 
D 
 
C 
 
D 
 
Cmaj9 
 
By the  
G 
cold and religious we were taken in h
Am 
and
 
Shown  
C 
how to feel good and  
D 
told to feel  
G 
bad.
 
G 
Strung out behind us the banners and fl
Am 
ags
 
Of our  
C 
possible pasts lie in  
D 
tatters and  
G 
rags.
 
Em 
Do you remember me, how we used to be,
 
Do you think we should be  
D 
closer?

Yet Another Movie

Chords and lyrics for Yet Another Movie by Pink Floyd

Dm 
 
C 
 
Gm 
 
Dm 
 
Dm 
One sound, one single sound
 
C 
One kiss, one single kiss
 
A  
Gm 
face outside the window pane
 
How
Dm 
ever did it come to this?
 
A  
Dm 
man who ran, a child who cried
 
A gi
C 
rl who heard, a voice that lied
 
The su
Gm 
n that burned a fiery red
 
The  
Dm 
vision of an empty bed
C 
Gm 
Dm 
 
The  
Dm 
use of force, he was so tough
 
She’ll  
C 
soon submit, she’s had enough
 
The  
Gm 
march of fate, the broken will
 
Some
Dm 
one is lying very still
 
Dm 
He has laughed and he has cried
 
C 
He has fought and he has died
 
He’s jus
Gm 
t the same as all the rest
 
He’s  
Dm 
not the worst, he’s not the best
 
Dm 
 
C 
 
Gm 
 
Dm 
 
And  
Dm 
still this ceaseless murmuring
 
The  
C 
babbling that I brook
 
The  
Gm 
seas of faces, eyes upraised
 
The  
Dm 
empty screen, the vacant look
 
A  
Dm 
man in black on a snow white horse,
 
A point
C 
less life has run its course,
 
The red  
Gm 
rimmed eyes, the tears still run
 
As he  
Dm 
fades into the setting sun
 
Dm 
 
C

When The Tigers Broke Free

Chords and lyrics for When The Tigers Broke Free by Pink Floyd

 
It was j
C 
ust before dawn one m
Gsus 
iserable morning  
C 
in black forty-four
 
C 
When the foreward commander was told to sit tight,
 
When they asked that his  
F/C 
men be wi
C 
thdrawn
 
C 
And the generals gave thanks, as the other ranks
 
Gsus 
Held back the enem
C 
y tanks for a while
 
And the  
C 
Anzio Bridgehead was  
Gsus 
held for the price
 
Of a  
C 
few hundred ordinary lives
 
C 
And kind old King  
G 
George sent Mother a  
C 
note when he heard that  
G 
Father was gone
 
C 
It was, I re
G 
call, in the form of a  
C 
scroll with gold leaf and all
 
C 
And I found it one day in a drawer of old photographs hidden away
 
C 
And my eyes still grow damp to re
Gsus 
member
 
His Majesty  
C 
signed with his own rubber stamp
 
C 
It was dark all a
G 
round, there was frost on the  
C 
ground
 
When the Tigers broke  
G 
free
 
C 
And no-one survived from the Royal Fusiliers, Company “C”
 
G 
They were all left be
C 
hind, most of them  
G 
dead – the rest of them  
C 
dying
 
C 
And that’s how the  
G 
high command took my  
C 
daddy from me
