Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn

Lotus's lean on each other in yearning,

Over the hills a swallow is resting

Roger Waters, Rick Wright, Nicholas Mason and David Gilmour
Bm Em Bm Em Abm7 G F#sus4 F#
Bm
Overhead the albatross
F#m
Hangs motionless upon the air
G
And deep beneath the rolling waves
F#
In labyrinths of coral caves
Bm
The echo of a distant time
F#m
Comes willowing across the sand
G F#
And everything is green and submarine
B
And no-one showed us to the land
F#
And no-one knows the wheres or whys
Em
But something stirs and something tries
F# G
And starts to climb towards the light
Bm G Bm G Bm G D A Bb
Bm
Strangers passing in the street
F#m
By chance two separate glances meet
G F#
And I am you and what I see is me
Bm
And do I take you by the hand
F#m
And lead you through the land
G F#
And help me understand the best I can
B
And no-one calls us to move on
F#
And no-one forces down our eyes
Em
And no-one speaks and no-one tries
F# G
And no-one flies around the sun
Bm G Bm G Bm G D A Bb
Bm F#m
Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes
G F#
Inviting and inciting me to rise
Bm
And through the window in the wall
F#m
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
G F#
A million bright ambassadors of morning
B
And no-one sings me lullabies
F#
And no-one makes me close my eyes
Em
So I throw the windows wide
F# G
And call to you across the sky
Bm G Bm G Bm D A Bb
