[Intro]
D Gmaj7
D Gmaj7 Gm6
DStanding at the window
A Gmaj7farmer's wife in Oxfordshire
DGlances at the clock it's nearly time for tea
She doesn't see
The phanGmaj7tom in the hedgerow dip its wingsGm6  
Doesn't hear the engine sing
Em7But in the cockpit's techno glow
Behind the Ray Ban Ashine
BdimThe kid from Cleveland
In the comfort of routine
Scans his dials Gmaj7and smiles
BdimSecure in the beauty of military lifeGmaj7  
Em7There is no right or wrong
Only tin cans and cordite and white cliffs
And blue skies and flight flight D/AflightA7  
D/AThe beauty of military life
No A7questions only orders and flight only flightD  
Em7What a beautiful sight in his wild blue dream
The etA7ernal child leafs through his War magazine
And his kind Uncle Sam feeds ten trillion in
Change into the total entertainmentD  
Combat video game
Em7And up here in the stands
The fans are goin' wild
The cA7heerleaders flip
When you wiggle your hip
And we all like the bit when you take
The jeans from the refrigerator and
Then the bad guy gets hitD  
And were you struck by the satisfyingEm7  
Way the swimsuit sticks to her skin
Like BA7B gun days
When knives pierce autumn leaves
But that's okay see the children bleed
A7It'll look great on the TV
Bm   Gmaj7 Gm6
And in DTripoli another oGmaj7rdinary wife
Em7Stares at the dripping her old man hadn't
A7Time to fix
Too busy mixing politics and rhythm

LATE HOME TONIGHT PART 1 - ROGER WATERS

[Intro]

D Gmaj7

D Gmaj7 Gm6

Standing at the window

Gmaj7

A farmer's wife in Oxfordshire

Glances at the clock it's nearly time for tea

She doesn't see

Gmaj7 Gm6

The phantom in the hedgerow dip its wings

Doesn't hear the engine sing

Em7

But in the cockpit's techno glow

Behind the Ray Ban shine

Bdim

The kid from Cleveland

In the comfort of routine

Gmaj7

Scans his dials and smiles

Bdim Gmaj7

Secure in the beauty of military life

Em7

There is no right or wrong

Only tin cans and cordite and white cliffs

D/A A7

And blue skies and flight flight flight

D/A

The beauty of military life

A7 D

No questions only orders and flight only flight

Em7

What a beautiful sight in his wild blue dream

The eternal child leafs through his War magazine

And his kind Uncle Sam feeds ten trillion in

Change into the total entertainment

Combat video game

Em7

And up here in the stands

The fans are goin' wild

The cheerleaders flip

When you wiggle your hip

And we all like the bit when you take

The jeans from the refrigerator and

Then the bad guy gets hit

Em7

And were you struck by the satisfying

Way the swimsuit sticks to her skin

Like BB gun days

When knives pierce autumn leaves

But that's okay see the children bleed

It'll look great on the TV

Bm Gmaj7 Gm6

D Gmaj7

And in Tripoli another ordinary wife

Em7

Stares at the dripping her old man hadn't

Time to fix

Too busy mixing politics and rhythm
