          Just nod if you can hear me      -      is there anyone home?
          Come on, now, I hear you're feeling down
          Well, I can ease your pain, get you on your feet, again
          Relax (relax), I'll need some information first
          Just the basic facts, can you show me where it hurts?

                         D2                                             A2
                            There is no pain, you are receding
                                D2                                             A2
                            A distant ship, smoke on the horizon
                         C                                                     G
                            You are only coming through in waves
                                     C                                                               G
                            Your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying

                            When I was a child, I had a fever
                            My hands felt just like two balloons
                            Now I've got that feeling once, again, I can't explain
                            You would not understand, this is not how I am

                                            A2 C             G                            D
                                              I~ I have become comfortably numb
                                                                 *Interlude*   (1/2 bridge & chorus)

          Okay (okay), just a little pinprick
          There'll be no more "ahhhh!", but you may feel a little sick
          Can you stand up (stand up)? I do believe it's working - good
          That'll keep you goin' for the show - c'mon, it's time to go

                            There is no pain, you are receding
                            A distant ship, smoke on the horizon
                            You are only coming through in waves
                            Your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying

                            When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse
                            Out of the corner of my eye
                            I turned to look, but it was gone
                            I cannot put my finger on it now
                              the child is grown, the dream is gone

                                              I~ I have become comfortably numb...
