THE FINAL CUT

F                                          F/C   C
Through the fish-eyed lens of tear stained eyes____

      Bb add9                                   F
I can barely define the shape of this moment in time.

    F                                  F/C   C
And far from flying high in clear blue skies___,

    Bb add9                                           F
I'm spiralling down to the hole in the ground where I hide.

Bb                   F|| Accoustic guitar
If you negotiate the minefield in the drive,|| begins here.
||
Bb                                   F|| Listen to record
And beat the dogs and cheat the cold electronic eyes,|| for strumming rhytm.
||
Bb         C                    Dm||
And if you make it past the shotgun in the hall,||
||
Gm7||
Dial the combination, open the priesthole||
||
                    C                                 F||
And if I'm in I'll tell you what's behind the wall.|| Stop here.

Am                                   F
There's a kid who had a big hallucination

Am                          C
Making love to girls in magazines.

   Bb                                   Dm
He wonders if you're sleeping with your new found faith.

Gm7
Could anybody love him

                /C          F      F/C  C  Bb add9  F
Or is it just a crazy dream___?

    F                     C
And if I show you my dark side

                    Bb   F
Will you still hold me tonight?

    F            C
And if I open my heart to you

                     Bb
And show you my weak side,

               F
What would you do?

Bb                                   F
Would you sell your story to Rolling Stone?|| Start again here.
||
Bb||
Would you take the children away||
||
F||
And leave me alone?||
||
    Bb           C||
And smile in reassurance||
||
       Dm||
As you whisper down the phone,||
||
Gm7||
Would you send me packing,|| Stop here.

/C                   F
Or would you take me home?

Am  F  Am  C  Bb  Dm  Gm7  /C  F

Video The Final Cut

Roger Waters Pink Floyd - Pt 02/04 - The Final Cut
A REQUIEM FOR THE POST WAR DREAM Video EP of the Final Cut Featuring: The Gunners Dream, The Final Cut, Not Now John, & The Fletcher Memorial Home.

Pink Floyd - The final cut (2/4)
album The final cut (1983) This album is very committed. It condemns the Falklands War (between Argentina & the UK in 1982) and attacks Maggie (Thatcher)'s social politics. Album très engagé. Condamne la guerre des Malouines (entre l'Argentine et le Royaume Uni en 1982) et s'attaque à la politique sociale menée par Maggie (Thatcher). More informtations about this war / Plus d'infos à propos de cette guerre sur : Wikipedia

Pink Floyd - The Final Cut (with lyrics)
Musically, much of The Final Cut has little connection with the familiar Pink Floyd sound, featuring little in the way of synthesisers or extended instrumental passages and with many of the arrangements focused around acoustic instruments such as acoustic guitars, piano, brass, string quartets and full orchestrations, although the album does also feature some heavier, hard rock songs which have arrangements and an overall sound similar to many tracks on The Wall. The Final Cut was Pink Floyd's lowest selling album since Meddle (although it still sold three million copies, and reached #1 in the British album charts). Opinion on The Final Cut remains divided - while the album has on occasion been voted the worst Pink Floyd album in fan polls and is held in low regard by some fans and critics, others have suggested that the album contains some of the most powerful and moving songs in the band's catalogu lyrics Through the fish-eyed lens of tear stained eyes I can barely define the shape of this moment in time And far from flying high in clear blue skies I'm spiraling down to the hole in the ground where I hide. If you negotiate the minefield in the drive And beat the dogs and cheat the cold electronic eyes And if you make it past the shotgun in the hall, Dial the combination, open the priesthole And if I'm in I'll tell you what's behind the wall. There's a kid who had a big hallucination Making love to girls in magazines. He wonders if you're sleeping with your new found faith. Could anybody love him Or is it just a crazy dream? And if I show you my dark side Will you still hold me tonight? And if I open my heart to you And show you my weak side What would you do? Would you sell your story to Rolling Stone? Would you take the children away And leave me alone? And smile in reassurance As you whisper down the phone? Would you send me packing? Or would you take me home? Thought I oughta bare my naked feelings, Thought I oughta tear the curtain down. I held the blade in trembling hands Prepared to make it but just then the phone rang I never had the nerve to make the final cut. "Hello? Listen, I think I've got it. Okay, listen its a HaHa!" If listened to closely, this song can be seen as a kind of epilogue to Pink Floyd's album The Wall. Lyrics in the song refer to selling the narrator's story to Rolling Stone and revealing his dark side, which can allude to the time he spent in self imposed exile behind his wall. Another lyric in this song tells of a point where the narrator will tell a seeker what is behind the wall, where the words "the wall" are covered by a shotgun blast.

Pink Floyd - Not now John (The final cut 3/4)
album The final cut (1983) Just this song (of all the album) was sung by David Gilmour. It seems less dark and less depressive than the others songs. C'est la seule chanson de l'album chantée par David Gilmour. Elle semble moins sombre et moins dépressive que les autres.
