Sorrow chords by Pink Floyd

Pink Floyd - Sorrow (Gilmour)


Em D/E Em D/E Em D/E C/E Em D/E Em D/E

Em
The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land

D/E
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky:

C/E
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers,

   Em             D/E         Em D/E
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking

   Em
He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise,

    D/E
In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise

   C/E
He's chained forever to a world that's departed

   Em              D/E
It's not enough, it's not enough.


  Em
His blood has frozen curdled with fright

  D/E
His knees have trembled given way in the night

  C/E
His hand is weakend at the moment of truth

  Em          D/E Em D/E
His step has faltered.


Bm A/B  D/A  Bm/F#  F#m
One world,   one   soul.

Bm  A/B A  Bm/F# F#m
Time pass, the river rolls.

    Em
And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication

  D/E
And silent replies that swirl invitation

C/E
Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea

 Em         D/E       Em D/E
A grim intimation of what is to be.

      Em
There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night

      D/E
And there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight

  C/E
And silence that speaks so much louder than words,

  Em        D/E
Of promises broken.
