    HIGH HOPES TAB


    HIGH HOPES Pink Floyd
    (Gilmour, Samson)

    Intro sound effects , bells chiming etc...

    This is the intro and should be repeated 4 times.                        
    E------15--------15--------18--------18--------11--------11--------------
    B------13--------13--------16--------16---------9---------9--------------

    E------------------------------------------------------------------------


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

                  Bb            G7
    Along the long road and on down the causeway
    Ab             Bb            G7
    Do they still meet there by the cut.


    (same chord sequence for other verses)

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

    Ab              Cm    Gm Ab
    The grass was greener
    Bb                 Cm  Eb Fm
    The light was brighter
    Ab              Cm   Gm  Ab
    When friends surrounded
    Bb               Cm   Eb Fm
    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 sleeping tide

    at a higher altitude with flag unfurled
    We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world


    Marching drums bit
    (Nylon Strung guitar)

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


    (same sequence as in first 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

    Forever and ever...
