Comfortably Numb [Live at Earls Court 1981]

[Verse 1: Roger Waters]

Hello? (Hello, hello, hello)

Is there anybody in there?

Just nod if you can hear me

Is there anyone home?

Come on (Come on, come on), now

I hear you're feeling down

Well, I can ease your pain

And get you on your feet again

Relax (Relax, relax, relax)

I'll need some information first

Just the basic facts

Now, can you show me where it hurts?

[Pre-Chorus 1: David Gilmour]

There is no pain, you are receding

A distant ship, smoke on the horizon

You are only coming through in waves

Your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying

When I was a child, I had a fever

My hands felt just like two balloons

Now I've got that feeling once again

I can't explain, you would not understand

This is not how I am

[Chorus: David Gilmour]

I have become comfortably numb

[Guitar Solo 1]

[Chorus: David Gilmour]

I have become comfortably numb

[Verse 2: Roger Waters]

Okay (Okay, okay, okay)

Just a little pinprick

There'll be no more (Aah!)

But you may feel a little sick

Can you stand up? (Stand up, stand up)

I do believe it's working, good

That'll keep you going through the show

Come on, it's time to go

[Pre-Chorus 2: David Gilmour]

There is no pain, you are receding

A distant ship, smoke on the horizon

You are only coming through in waves

Your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying

When I was a child, I caught a fleeting glimpse

Out of the corner of my eye

I turned to look, but it was gone

I cannot put my finger on it now

The child is grown, the dream is gone

[Chorus: David Gilmour]

I have become comfortably numb

[Guitar Solo 2]
