Pink Floyd — Paranoid Eyes

Pink Floyd - Paranoid Eyes (Waters)


G                   C                          G
Button your lip and don't let the shield slip.

                          C            G
Take a fresh grip on your bullet proof mask.

C                                                      G          D  C
And if they try to break down your disguise with their questions

        G     D     C        G/B  Am  D  Am
You can hide, hide, hide,

                G
Behind paranoid eyes.


        G                          C                   G
You put on our brave face and slip over the road for a jar,

                        C                    G
Fixing your grin as you casually lean on the bar.

C
Laughing too loud at the rest of the world

         G    D      C
With the boys in the crowd.

    G     D     C      Am  D  Am
You hide, hide, hide,

                 G
Behind petrified eyes.


C  G  C  G  C  G  Em  D  Am  G


      G                          C                 G
You believed in their stories of fame, fortune and glory.

                              C                   G
Now you're lost in a haze of alchohol soft middle age.

    C                                         G       D  C
The pie in the sky turned out to be miles too high.

        G     D     C       Am  D  Am
And you hide, hide, hide,


Behind brown and mild eyes.
