Bm A  
  
Hello, Is there any body in there?  
  
 G D/F# Em Bm  
  
Just nod if you can hear me, is there anyone at home?  
  
Bm A  
  
Come on, now, I hear your feeling down,  
  
 G D/F# Em Bm  
  
well, I can ease your pain, get you on your feet again.  
  
Bm A G D/F# Em  
  
relax, I need some information, first, just the basic facts,  
  
 Bm  
  
Can you show me where it hurts  
  
\* \* \*  
  
**\[Chorus\]**  
  
D A  
  
There is no pain you are receding,  
  
D A G/B  
  
A distant ships smoke, on the horizon,  
  
C G  
  
You are only coming through in waves,  
  
C G  
  
Your lips move, but I can't hear what your saying,  
  
 D A  
  
When I was a child, I had a fever,  
  
 D A G/B  
  
my hands felt just like, two balloons,  
  
C G  
  
Now I've got that feeling once again,  
  
G C  
  
I can't explain, you would not understand,  
  
 G  
  
This is not how I am,  
  
A G/B C G D  
  
I\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ have become, comfortably numb.</td><td style="width: 50%;">**\[Verse 2\]**  
  
Bm A G D/F# Em  
  
O.K., just a little pin prick, there'll be no more (scream),  
  
 Bm  
  
But you may feel a little sick. Can you stand up?  
  
 A G D/F# Em  
  
I do believe it's working, good. That'll keep you going through the show,  
  
Bm  
  
C'mon it's time to go  
  
\* \* \*  
  
**\[Chorus\]**  
  
D A  
  
There is no pain you are receding,  
  
D A G/B  
  
A distant ships smoke on the horizon,  
  
C G  
  
You are only coming through in waves,  
  
 C G  
  
Your lips move, but I can't hear what your saying,  
  
 D A  
  
When I was a child, I caught a fleeting glimpse,  
  
D A G/B  
  
Out of the corner of my eye,  
  
C G  
  
I turned to look, but it was gone,  
  
 C  
  
I can not put my finger on it now,  
  
 G  
  
The child is grown, the dream is gone,  
  
A G/B C G D  
  
and I\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_, have become comfortably numb.</td></tr></tbody></table>
