A Pocketful Of Stones Chords

   
VERSE 1:

Cadd9               F6add9                 
He's sending stones skimming and flying
Cadd9                    F6add9
Circles spinning out his time
Cadd9                         F6add9
Though the earth is dying his head is in the stars 
Cadd9                      F6add9
Chances are this spark's a lifetime 


INSTRUMENTAL:

|Ebm         |Dbm         |Ebm         |Dbm   G    |


VERSE 2:

Cadd9              F6add9            
Out of touch he'll live in wonder
Cadd9                         F6add9
Won't lose sleep he'll just pretend 
Cadd9           F6add9       
In his world he won't go under  
Cadd9                       F6add9
Turns without him until the end


BRIDGE:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/d/david_gilmour/a_pocketful_of_stones_crd.html ]
Ebsus2  Ebm        Ebsus2    Ebm              Ebsus2   Ebm      Ebsus2
        Rivers run dry         but there's no line     on his brow 
Ebm                F   Fb9   F   Fb9  F  Fb9  F  Fb9  
   Says he doesn't care who's saved 
              F7       Bbm       F
It's just the dice you roll, the here and now 
F+           F
And he's not guilty or afraid 
Ebm
One day he'll slip away 
                   Dbmaj7
Cool water flowing all around      In the river and on the ground 
        Ebm                                    Dbmaj7          G7sus4 G7
Leave a pocketful of stones and not believe in other lives 


VERSE 3:

Cadd9            F6add9              
Until then he'll live in wonder         
Cadd9                   F6add9
He won't fight or comprehend
Cadd9           F6add9       
In his world he won't go under  
Cadd9                       F6add9
Turns without him until the end
