Wait for Her / Oceans Apart / Part of Me Died (Medley)
Roger Waters
G
Intro
G G C G G With a glass inlaid with gemstones G On a pool around the evening C Among the perfumed roses G Wait for her G With the patience of a packhorse G Loaded for the mountains C Like a stoic, noble prince G Wait for her G With seven pillows laid out on the stair G C The scent of women's incense fills the air G Be calm, and wait for her G And do not flush the sparrows G That are nesting in her braids C All along the barricades G G G/F# Wait for her Em C And if she comes soon G G G/F# Wait for her Em C And if she comes late G G Wait G Let her be still G As a summer afternoon C G A garden in full bloom G Let her breathe in the air G That is foreign to her heart C Let her lips part G Wait for her G Take her to the balcony G See the moon soaked in milk C Hear the rustle of her silk G Wait for her G Don't let your eyes alight upon G The twin doves of her breast C Lest they take flight G G G/F# Wait for her Em C And if she comes soon G G G/F# Wait for her Em C And if she comes late G D Wait, Wait G Serve her water before wine G Do not touch her hand C G Let your fingertips rest at her command G G Speak softly as a flute would to a fearful violin C Breathe out G G G/F# Breathe in
Solo
Em C G G/F# Em C G D G And as the echo fades G From that final fusillade C G Remember the promises you made ( G D C G ) C G She was always here in my heart C G Always the love of my life C G G/F# We were strangers, oceans apart Em D But when I laid eyes on her C G A part of me died ( G C G C G ) G The part that is envious, cold hearted and devious G Greedy, mischievous, global, colonial C Bloodthirsty, blind, mindless and cheap G Focused on borders and slaughter and sheep G Burning of books, bulldozing of homes G Given to targeted killing with drones C G Lethal injections, arrest without trial G Monocular vision, gangrene and slime G Unction, sarcasm, common assault C Self-satisfied heroic killers G Lifted on high G Piracy adverts, acid attacks G On women by bullies and perverts and hacks C G The rigging of ballots and the buying of power G Lies from the pulpit Rape in the shower G Mute, indifferent Feeling no shame C Portly, important G Leering, deranged G Sat in the corner watching TV G Deaf to the cries of children in pain C Dead to the world G Just watching the game G Watching endless repeats out of sight, out of mind G Silence, indifference The ultimate crime C G G G/F# But when I met you, that part of me died C G G G/F# Bring me a bowl to bathe her feet in C G Bring me my final cigarette G D/F# Em D C It would be better by far to die in her arms than to linger B B7 In a lifetime of regret
