Pink Floyd – Your Possible Pasts (Ukulele)

     F                                  Dm
They flutter behind you your possible pasts,

     F                          G              F
Some brighteyed and crazy, some frightened and lost.

  F                              Dm
A warning to anyone still in command

F                 G               F
Of their possible future, to take care.

   F                                 Dm
In derelict sidings the poppies entwine

     F                      G                 F
With cattle trucks lying in wait for the next time.

Am
Do you remember me, how we used to be,

                         G
Do you think we shoud be closer?

    F                                       Dm
She stood in the doorway, the ghost of a smile

F                        G           F
Haunting her face like a cheap hotel sign.

    F                                     Dm
Her cold eyes imploring the men in their macs

        F                         G               F
For the gold in their bags or the knives in their backs.

F                                   Dm
Stepping up boldly one put out his hand.

          F                      G                F
He said, "I was just a child then, now I'm only a man."

Am
Do you remember me,  how we used to be,

                          G
Do you think we should be closer?

       F                                    Dm
By the cold and religious we were taken in hand

      F                    G            F
Shown how to feel good and told to feel bad.

F                                      Dm
Strung out behind us the banners and flags

       F                     G           F
Of our possible pasts lie in tatters and rags.

Am
Do you remember me, how we used to be,

                          G
Do you think we should be closer?
