Here's one of my favorites from early Floyd. Enjoy!!
Wots...uh the Deal
from the albumn Obscured by Clouds
by Pink Floyd
The intro and verses of this song consist mainly of eighth notes played on
the first four strings over a descending baseline going from (G, F#, F, E,
D#, D.)

Verses:
Heaven sent the promised land
Looks alright from where I stand
'Cause I'm the man on the outside looking in
Waitin' on the first step
Show me where the key is kept
Point me down the right line because it's time
To let me in
Chorus I
Flash the red is - wots...uh the deal?
Got to make it to the next meal
Try to keep up with the turnin' of the wheel
Mile after mile stone after stone
You turn to speak but you're alone
Million mile from home you're on your own
So let me in
Chorus I
Fly bright by candle light with her by my side
And if she prefers we never stir again
Someone sent the promised land and I grabbed it with both hands
Now I'm the man on the inside looking out
Chorus II
I don't know exactly how the chorus is played, but I do know the basic
chords used. Here they are:

Chorus II
G G7 C Em Am
Hear me shout come on in What's the news, where've you been
G G7 D7 D9
