Pink Floyd: "If" (from the album: Atom Heart Mother)
----------------------------------------------------
(I nabbed the lyrics from some Floyd ftp site: thanks to
whomever typed them in: I didn't save your name(s))
Nothing tricky about this song guitar-wise. Live, as on the
record "the Pink Floyd Live in the BBC studios: 1972", either Waters
or
Wright plays the classical guitar.
If I were a swan, I'd be gone...

These chords repeat with the following stanzas:
If I were to sleep, I could dream.
If I were afraid, I could hide.
If I go insane, please don't put
Your wires in my brain.
If I were the moon, I'd be cool.
If I were a book, I would bend for you.
If I were a good man, I'd understand
The spaces between friends.
If I were alone, I would cry.
And if I were with you, I'd be home and dry.
And if I go insane,
Will you still let me join in the game?
(electric guitar solo)
If I were a swan, I'd be gone.
If I were a train, I'd be late again.
If I were a good man,
I'd talk with you
More often than I do.
(electric guitar solo)
add bass, 12-string acoustic (strumming the chords), piano and drums
to taste.
