Tabbed by: Pinky_Floyd


Tuning: Standard

Intro, Piano: D5  B5

Verse 1:
D5                             B5
The platitudes they all dissolved
                                D5
They got too deep, got too involved
                          B5
The platitudes just interludes 
                                 A5
To break the trust with me and you


Verse 2:
                   E5
Oh what a shangri-la 
                     G5
Oh what a shell we are
                        D5
Oh what a mess we've made 
                        A5
What happened to those days
                             E5
When everything seemed possible
                         G5
With no-one to tell you no
                        D5
Where did the feeling go?
                      A5
Where did it all go wrong?
                     E5
Born to be a communist
                           G5
But then the marriage failed
                     D5
As did the partnership


Interlude: chord sequence goes up then down (D), 
(1-3 2-5 3-4 4-0 5-0 6-x), (1-5 2-7 3-7 4-0 5-0 6-x), (D shape 7th fret)  


Verse 3:
                              B5
The platitudes they all dissolved
                                D5
They got too deep, got too involved
                           B5
The platitudes just interludes 
                                  A5
To break the trust with me and you


Verse 3:
                            E5
I fell back in love with love
                            G5
I know that it might sound odd
                        D5
The liberal left destroyed
                  A5
Every bit of our youth
                         E5
Left with the barest of bones
                     G5
Leaving us all with holes
                      D5
Where did it all go wrong?
                       A5
Where did the feeling go?
                   E5
Why colonise the moon
                      G5
When every different kind 
                    D5
Of desperation exists?
                 A5
In every single home
                      E5
Where did the feeling go?
                       G5
Where did the feeling go?
                     D5
Where did it all go wrong?


Interlude: chord sequence goes up then down (D), 
(1-3 2-5 3-4 4-0 5-0 6-x), (1-5 2-7 3-7 4-0 5-0 6-x), (D shape 7th fret)  x 2


La, la la la etc (verse chords as above then finish on one final interlude (x2))
