[Verse 1]

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.

[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.
