[Em]Welcome my son,
[Cmaj7]Welcome to the [Em]machine.
[C]Where have you been?
[Am]It's all right, we know where you've [Em]been.
[Cmaj7]You've been in the pipe line filling in time,
[Em]Provided with toys and scouting for boys.

And you know you're nobody's fool.
So [Cmaj7]welcome to the [Em]machine.

[Em]Well I've always had a deep respect and I mean that most sincerely,
The band is just fantastic that is [C]really what I think,
Oh [D]by the way, which one's [Em]Pink?

We call it [D]"Riding the gravy [G][C]train".[G]
[G] [F#] [F#] [F] [Em]

You've gotta get an album out, you [C]owe it to the people,
We're so [D]happy we can hardly [Em]count.

It's a helluva start, it could be [C]made into a monster,

Wish You Were Here (Waters, Gilmour)
[C]So, so you think you can [D]tell,
Heaven from [Am]Hell, blue skys from [G]pain.
Can you tell a green [D]field from a cold steel [C]rail, a smile from a [Am]veil,
Do you think you can [G]tell?
And did they get you to [C]trade your heroes for [D]ghosts,
Hot ashes for [Am]trees, hot air for a [G]cool breeze, cold comfort for [D]change,
And did you [C]exchange a walk on part in the [Am]war for a lead role in a [G]cage?
[Em] [G] [Em] [G] [Em] [A] [Em] [A]
[C]How I wish, how I wish you were [D]here.
We're just [Am]two lost souls swimming in a fish [G]bowl, year after year,[D]
Running over the same old ground. [C]What have we found?
The same old [Am]fears. Wish you were here![G]
