Syd Barrett

Roger Keith "Syd" Barrett (6 January 1946 – 7 July 2006), was an English singer-songwriter, guitarist and painter, best remembered as a founder member of the band Pink Floyd. He was the lead vocalist, guitarist and primary songwriter during the band's psychedelic years, providing major musical and stylistic direction in their early work. He is credited with creating their name, but left the group in April 1968 amid speculations of mental illness exacerbated by drug use, and was briefly hospitalised. more »

          A                 D
She took a long cold look at me
    D                            A  
and smiled and gazed all over my arm
             A                  D
she loves to see me get down to ground
    D                               A
she hasn't time just to be with me
            A                     D  
her face between all she means to be
   D                              A
to be extreme, just to be extreme
         A                D
a broken pier on the wavy sea
    D                                A
she wonders why for all she wants to see...

          
          G
But I got up and I stomped around
                                            E           E7
and hid the piece where the trees touch the ground...

   (Then, to imitate Syd trying to play while turning his lyric 
sheet, just
   strike the A and the low E about 467823823 times...)
           
           A                      D
The end of truth that lay out the time
      D                         A
spent lazing here on a painting green
          A                 D
a mile or more in a foreign clime
   D                     A
to see farther inside of me.
            A                D
And looking high up into the sky
  D                                 A
I breathe as the water streams over me...
