Echoes

Pink Floyd

   C#mi G#mi F#mi G# (2x)
   
1. Overhead the albatross hangs
   Motionless upon the air
   And deep beneath the rolling waves
   In labyrinths of coral caves
   The echo of a distant time
   Comes willowing across the sand
   And everything is green and submarine
   
R: And no-one showed us to the land
   And no-one knows the where or whys
   But something stirs and something tries
   And starts to climb towards the light
   
   C#mi  A (3x)
   
2. Strangers passing in the street
   By chance two separate glances meet
   And I am you and what I see is me
   And do I take you by the hand
   And lead you through the land
   And help me understand the best I can
   
R: And no-one calls us to move on
   And no-one forces down our eyes
   And no-one speaks and no-one tries
   And no-one flies around the sun
   
3. Cloudless everyday you fall
   Upon my waking eyes
   Inviting and inciting me to rise
   And through the window in the wall
   Come streaming in on sunlight wings
   A million bright ambassadors of morning
   
R: And no-one sings me lullabies
   And no-one makes me close my eyes
   So I throw the windows wide
   And call to you across the sky
