Pink Floyd - Childhood's End (Gilmour)
[Intro]
| G D | Am Em |
[Verse 1]
Em
You shout in your sleep.
A
Perhaps the price is just too steep.
Em A
Is your conscience at rest if once put to the test?
Em A
You awake with a start to just the beating of your heart.
G D Em
Just one man beneath the sky, just two ears, just two eyes.

[Verse 2]
Em A
You set sail across the sea of long past thoughts and memories.
Em A
Childhood's end, your fantasies merge with harsh realities.
Em A
And then as the sail is hoist, you find your eyes are growing moist.
G D A G Em
All the fears never voiced say you have to make your final choice.

[Verse 3]
Em A
Who are you and who am I to say we know the reason why?
Em A
Some are born; some men die beneath one infinite sky.
Em
There'll be war, there'll be peace.
A
But everything one day will cease.
G D Em
All the iron turned to rust; all the proud men turned to dust.
A
And so all things time will mend.
G D Em
So this song will end.
[Outro]
