Pink Floyd - High Hopes: chords

Cm            Cm7           G#
Beyond the horizon of the place we
lived when we were young
Cm             Cm7             G#
In a world of magnets and miracles
Cm                    Cm7              G#
Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
Cm                   Cm7               G#
The ringing of the division bell had begun

Cm              G#     G7sus4             G       G7/A#
Along the long road and on down the causeway
Cm             G#              G7sus4 G
Do they still meet there by the cut

There was a ragged band that
followed in our footsteps
Running before time took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures
trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay

Chorus:
                Cm   Gm G# A#
The grass was greener
                Cm    Dm D# Fm Gm G#
The light was brighter
                 Cm   Gm G# A#
When friends surrounded
               Cm   Dm D# Fm Gm G#
The nights of wonder

Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide
At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many times

Chorus:
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river
For ever and ever
