Lost Boys Calling chords by Roger Waters

Chords with lyrics

Capo I (Every chord is really a half-step higher than written)

*=single notes (no chord)

        C*
Come hold me now
     F*
I am not gone
G*			      C*
I would not leave you here alone
       FF	         AbAb
In this dead calm beneath the waves
	  Am7Am7		Am7/D    G+G
I can still hear those lost   boys calling

       C majorC
You could not speak
	  FF
You were afraid
  G+G           Ab*  Am7Am7
To take the risk of being left again
      G+G	       Am7Am7    G+G
And so you tipped your hat and waved and then
DmDm                   G+G
You turned back up the gangway of that steel tomb again

CHORUS (2x, 2nd time with “she holds” and “we”)
    C majorC       FF
And in Mott Street in July
    Dm7Dm7         G7G7
When I hear those seabirds cry
 FF    E minor 7Em7    Am7Am7     FF
I hold the child, the child in the man
  G7G7      G/BG/B   C majorC
The child that we leave behind

       C majorC
The spotlight fades
      FF
The boys disband,
  G+G               C majorC
the final notes lie mute upon the sand
      FF		 Ab*
And in the silence of the grave
	   Am7Am7	   D/Am7   G+G
I can still hear those lost boys calling

       C majorC
We left them there
        FF
When they were young
  G+G                 C majorC
The men were gone until the west was won
		  FF            Ab*
And now there's nothing left but time to kill
     Am7Am7   D/Am7
You never took us fishing dad
  G+G
And now you never will

CHORUS I


Notes:
1. Not sure about the AbAb as a single note, but I can’t figure out a chord here. I tried
F/Ab, but it didn’t sound right. Any suggestions or corrections, please email the
cowboy at yahoo. (Delete the spaces.)

2. Not sure about the G/BG/B either.

3. I also had a bit of trouble with the "and so you tipped your hat and waved" line. I'm
