Bm
Hello,
A
is there anybody in there?
G Em
Just nod if you can hear me;
Bm
is there anyone home?

Come on, now,
A
I hear you’re feeling down.
G Em
Well, I can ease your pain;
Bm
get you on your feet again.

Relax,
A
I need some information first.
G Em
Just the basic facts:
Bm
can you show me where it hurts?

D A
There is no pain, you are receding.
D A
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
C G
You are only coming through in waves.
C G
Your lips move but I can’t hear what you re saying.
D A
When I was a child I had a fever.
D A
My hands felt just like two balloons.
C G
Now I got that feeling once again;
C
I can’t explain, you would not understand.
G
This is not how I am.
A C G D
I have become, comfortably numb.

D A D A C G C G

A C G D
I have become, comfortably numb.

Bm
Ok, (ok)
A
just a little pinprick.
G Em
There’ll be no more –aaaaaahhhhh!
Bm
But you may feel a little sick.

Can you stand up?
A
I do believe it’s working good.
G Em
That’ll keep you going for the show.
Bm
Come on it’s time to go.

D A
There is no pain, you are receding.
D A
A distant ship’s smoke on the horizon.
C G
You are only coming through in waves.
C G
Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re saying.
D A
When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,
D A
out of the corner of my eye.
C G
I turned to look but it was gone.
C
I cannot put my finger on it now.
G
The child is grown, the dream is gone.
A C G D
I have become, comfortably numb.
