SAN TROPEZ
Pink Floyd
(Waters)

"Meddle"

D7

Verse 1:

       Gmaj7
As I reach for a peach,
                              Gm6
Slide a line down behind a sofa in Saz Tropez.
Gmaj7
Breaking a stick with a brick on the sand,
                                 Gm6
Riding a wave in the wake of an old sedan.
G7
Sleeping alone in the drone of the darkness,
A7
Scratched by the sand that fell from my love,
C7
Deep in my dreams and I still hear her calling,
D
If you're alone, I'll come home.

Verse 2:

Gmaj7
Backward and homebound, the pigeon, the dove,
Gm6
Gone with the wind and the rain on an airplane.
Gmaj7
Born in a home with no silver spoon,
     Gm6
I'm drinking champagne like a good tycoon.
G7
Sooner than wait for a break in the weather,
   A7
I'll gather my far flung thoughts together,
C7
Speeding away on a wind to a new day,
D
If you're alone, I'll come home.

Verse 3:

         Gmaj7                             (Fill 1)
And I'll pause for a while by a country stile,
                          Gm6
And listen to the things they say.
Gmaj7                           (Fill 2)
Digging for gold in a hole in my hand,
                      (Fill 3)                 Gm6
Open the book, take a look at the way things stand.
        G7                                       (Fill 4)
And you're leading me down to the place by the sea,
A7                          (Fill 5)
I hear you soft voice calling to me,
C7                      (Fill 6)
Making a date for later by phone,
D        (Fill 7)                                        (Fill 8)
And if you're alone, I'll come ho, ho, home.
