The Final Cut

C                                 
Through the fish-eyed lens of tear
         G
 stained eyes
        F                       
I can barely define the shape of 
            C
this moment in time
    C                            
And far from flying high in clear 
       G
blue skies
       F                           
I'm spiralling down to the hole in 
                  C     G
the ground where I hide

F                    C
If you negotiate the minefield in 
the drive

F                                 
And beat the dogs and cheat the 
   C
cold electronic eyes

F           G                   
And if you make it past the shotgun 
Am
in the hall
Dm
Dial the combination, open the 
priesthole

                    G              
And if I'm in I'll tell you what's 
             C
behind the wall
E                         
There's a kid who had a big 
          C
hallucination

E                           G
Making love to girls in magazines
    F                              
He wonders if you're sleeping with 
     Am
your new found faith
Dm
Could anybody love him
                 G     C     G  F  C
Or is it just a crazy dream___?

    C                     G
And if I show you my dark side
                     F   C
Will you still hold me tonight?
    C            G
And if I open my heart to you
                     F
And show you my weak side
               C   G
What would you do?
F                                 
Would you sell your story to 
     C
Rolling Stone?

F
Would you take the children away
C
And leave me alone?
     F           G
And smile in reassurance
       Am
As you whisper down the phone
Dm
Would you send me packing
 G                   C
Or would you take me home?
E                            
Thought I oughta bare my naked 
     C
feelings
E                                
Thought I oughta tear the curtain 
G
down
  F
I held the blade in trembling hands
   Am                    Dm
Prepared to make it but just then 
the phone rang
I never had the nerve to make the 
      C   G  F  C
final cut
