How to play echoes by pink floyd

Pink Floyd - Echoes

Capo on 4th for the right key


Am Em
Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air
Dm
And deep beneath the rolling waves
E
In labyrinths of coral caves
Am
The echo of a distant time
Em
Comes willowing across the sand
Dm E
And everything is green and submarine


A
And no-one showed us to the land
E
And no-one knows the wheres or whys
Dm
But something stirs and something tries
E F Am
And starts to climb towards the liiiiight


Bridge: Am F Am F Am F C G Ab Am


Am
Strangers passing in the street
Em
By chance two separate glances meet
Dm E
And I am you and what I see is meee
Am
And do i take you by the hand
Em
And lead you through the land
Dm E
And help me understand the best i caaan


A
And no-one calls us to move on
E
And no-one forces down our eyes
Dm
And no-one speaks and no-one tries
E F Am
And no-one flies around the suuuuuun


Bridge: Am F Am F Am F C G Ab Am


Am Em
Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes
Dm E
Inviting and inciting me to rise
Am
And through the window in the wall
Em
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
Dm E
A million bright ambassadors of morning


A
And no-one sings me lullabies
E
And no-one makes me close my eyes
Dm
And so I throw the windows wide
E F Am
And call to you across the skyyyyyy


Bridge: Am F Am F Am F C G Ab Am

Heaven and Hell

This may sound a bit odd but today I would like to mix my philosophy with spiritualisation although I am not a very pious person but yes I do believe in god and would like to bring in some thoughts of mine in words. But before I go on, I would like to make it very clear that these are my personal views and are not meant to hurt or to be enforced on any one. Please don’t relate my words to any religion.
For generations we have been hearing about a heaven and hell, what exactly is heaven and hell and where does is exist? According to me heaven and hell both are right here and its our actions which decide where we choose to live. Common if you think about it logically heaven is always described as a place with all the goodies and peace whereas hell is a place with fire and people burn etc... Now in this life if we decide to stay in peace we make our own heaven whereas if we do wrong dead's or hurt people we burn from the inside, the fire of hell according to me is nothing but the fire of guilt,anger, vengeance etc... That is why we even talk about karma. This is a very vast thought and cannot be covered in this blog i guess so here is a small tip from me

"All you touch and all you see is all your life will ever be, so seize ever moment and create your own heaven."  

Breathe

Breathe, breathe in the air
Don't be afraid to care
Leave but don't leave me
Look around, choose your own ground
For long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all your touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be


Run rabbit run
Dig that hole, forget the sun
And when at last the work is down
Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one
For long you live and high you fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race towards an early grave

was trying to wright something original but not getting the proper inspiration. So decided to share some words by Roger Walter and David Gilmore. Sometimes in life when u listen to these songs don't you suddenly fell like as if someone read your mind. The lyrics are so true, in life don't we always run after something which is beyond our grasp and in the end loose so much in our present. Its always that one thing which we run after "Run rabbit run Dig that hole, forget the sun And when at last the work is down
Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one ". Same way in our life we start with school , then its college , then a few more years of masters and during all this time we always think that the grass is green once we cross this deserted part of our life but that day never comes - that day never comes when we are actually satisfied. 

Flying high with chains tied.

There’s an empty space inside of me,

And I don’t know how to fill that.

I tried almost everything,

But the emptiness creeps back.

The walls are closing in,

And the past comes glowing in.

The hazy faces smile at me,

And ask me to come back.

I have come too far from the shore,

And I don’t see a way back.

I always urge them to join me,

I am lost come help me.

Fly along side

Don’t pull me back.

My dreams are high,

Look I can fly.

I may lose my way,

But I have wings on me and I can’t stay.

Someday or the other you will say,

He was right, though we could have failed

But by that time the ship would have sailed.


a song by me , still working on the lead and solo's the basic chords which i thought for this will be (Am,G,F,E) but with these chords the solo is getting stuck so lets c the day i figure out the perfect chords will upload the whole song. 

Change Republic

since 1950 , India has changed , Indians have changed , i think its high time and now our constitution needs a heavy change. In a country where we struggle in getting jobs with so high qualification , so many of our "so called representatives " cant even wright there names. I am proud to be an Indian and I love my country like any other commoner, but what I hate are these corrupt politician who are trying to decide the fate of our country.
To get into a government service one has to go through so many mental and physical test but to run a government ....?????
We talk about killing corruption for "India shinning" i guess the best way to kill corruption is to kill the roots of it and we all know where its root lay.
Every one knows about the divide and rule policy and yet we support "Reservation". This list is very long and i can go on writing about it but to conclude i would just say - "To raise India , Change India"
JAI HIND.

Second Innings

The period of transformation from a boy to a man is the most critical period of ones life. Everything which you thought was cool or trendy seems so wrong and stupid all of a sudden . The guilt of your mistakes as a boy haunt you . No one is perfect, i guess god made us to commit mistakes and learn . I personally think i am far from being the perfect one but i am glad that i have a way to proceed and that's what brings interest in life. A feeling of achieving something which is far beyond your reach.  


The problem is not many people understand this and by the time they realize its to late . Once we make a mistake so easily we figure out that its not a big deal and the one suffering because of me should forgive me , but the vice-versa happens when we are the sufferers. Life doesn't gives a second chance but that doesn't mean that we humans should not give others a second chance. People change all the time, because as humans we keep learning . So how about after reading this you forgive some one who may have done a horrible mistake but has realized it and feels sorry for it. Today i forgive them all and as the name of the article says i am ready for my second innings .

Crossroad

I found myself standing on a crossroad a few months back. On my left I saw a way where there was nothing right, on my right I saw a place where there was nothing left. In front of me I saw the toughest terrain I had ever seen and behind me was a road which would have taken me to a place where there was no right or wrong and nothing could be changed. Walking by myself I heard voices within me but there were so many distractions. Too tired to carry on but there was something which was stopping me from halting. I was wounded but something healed me. I decided to take the way which was in front of me. Soon I realized I wasn’t alone there were so many similar persons trying to cross the terrain and the something which was helping me all this time was seeing me from above.  I walked, I jogged and I sprinted but his eyes were still watching me. I went up and down the mountains, crossed rivers and leaped over others who had fallen but still when I look in front of me there is no finish line. It’s like a race to the horizon, you can see it but can never reach it. Yet I move on because while walking through these valleys I hear echoes of my loved ones calling me. As I move on i may lose my powers physically but with those eyes upon me and with these voices calling me I develop the power of will and hope.
