Pink Floyd - Your Possible Pasts (Waters)

G Am

They flutter behind you your possible pasts,

C D G

Some brighteyed and crazy, some frightened and lost.

G Am

A warning to anyone still in command

C D G

Of their possible future, to take care.

G Am

In derelict sidings the poppies entwine

C D G

With cattle trucks lying in wait for the next time.

Em

Do you remember me, how we used to be,

D

Do you think we shoud be closer?

G Am

She stood in the doorway, the ghost of a smile

C D G

Haunting her face like a cheap hotel sign.

G Am

Her cold eyes imploring the men in their macs

C D G

For the gold in their bags or the knives in their backs.

G Am

Stepping up boldly one put out his hand.

C D G

He said, "I was just a child then, now I'm only a man."

Em

Do you remember me, how we used to be,

D

Do you think we should be closer?

Em C Em C Em D C D Cmaj9

G Am

By the cold and religious we were taken in hand

C D G

Shown how to feel good and told to feel bad.

G Am

Strung out behind us the banners and flags

C D G

Of our possible pasts lie in tatters and rags.

Em

Do you remember me, how we used to be,

D

Do you think we should be closer?
