intro (play each chord for 4 bars):

OK!  I have finally unlocked the mystery of the acoustic intro to this
song!  It is tuned down a WHOLE step and played in  E  minor, so it sounds
like  D  minor.  The real way David Gilmour played the four intro chords is
like this:

    Em9    Cadd4   Bsus2    Bbsus2 
1---2-----0-----0-----0--|
2---3-----1-----2-----1--|
3---0-----0-----4-----3--|
4---2-----3-----4-----3--|
5---------3-----2-----1--|
6------------------------|

Of course, no one wants to tune down a whole step just for the first few
minutes of the song, so I invented a way to play it in standard tuning.
The chords are shown above, but for a recap here they are:

    Dm9    Bbadd4   Asus2    Absus2 
1---------1--------------|
2---5-----3--------------|
3---5-----3-----7-----7--|
4---3-----1-----7-----6--|
5---5-----1-----7-----6--|
6---------------5-----4--|

Try it!  It really works.

        Dm9 
You've got to be crazy, you've got to have a real need
           Bbadd4 
You gotta sleep on your toes when you're on the street
                                                        Asus2 
You got to be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed
Then moving in silently, downwind and out of sight
 Absus2 
You've got to strike when the moment is right without thinking
 Dm9                                                       Bbadd4 
After a while you can work on points for style, like the club tie
And the firm handshake, a sudden look in the eye, and an easy smile
     Asus2                                                      Absus2 
You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to so that when
they turn their backs on you, you'll get the chance to put the knife in

 Dm             C             Dm   C   Dm                C                  Dm      C 
And when you lose control,    you'll reap the harvest you have sown
 Dm           C            Dm   C       Dm                               Bb      A 
And as the fear grows,     the bad blood slows and turns to stone
 Dm         C     Dm        C          Dm           C         Dm        C             Dm   C 
And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw around
           Bb     C               Bb   C             Dm   A          F      A        Dm 
So have a good drown, as you go down all alone, dragged down by the stone

(dog bark and whistle interlude)

 Dm9    Bbadd4     Asus2     Absus2 
 Dm9 
Gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused
 Bbadd4 
Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used
 Asus2 
Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise
      Absus2 
If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this maze?
 Dm9 
Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending
      Bbadd4 
That everyone's expendable, and no one has a real friend
        Asus2 
And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner
 Absus2 
Everything's done under the sun and you believe at heart everyone's a killer
