Go Fishing from Roger Waters
The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking
Transcribed by D Nadelberg


The album version is very densely arranged and orchistrated, so this is not
ecessarily a very pared down approximation I worked out for acoustic.  No
sound effects or talking, I=D5m afraid.  I have tried to compensate.

In the progression which begins with the G, hitting all those chords nice
and hard and letting them ring out makes them sound a bit like bells.
Play it just like the crashing progression from In the Flesh off The
Wall.

Also, I toggle to Dadd9 and back for all my end-of-the-verse Ds, to great
effect.

This is my first submission.  Ideas, comments, etc, let's talk about it

Intro:
Em Em7 C D (Dadd9)

Bm7
We set out in the Spring =

					   D
With a trunkful of books about everything.
Bm7
About solar devices
			   D
And how nice natural childbirth is.
Cmaj7/E
We cut down some trees and trailed our ideals
		B7
Through the forest glade.
Cmaj7/E
We dammed up the stream and the kids cooled their heels
	 B7
In the fishing pool we made.
Em			   Em7
We held hands and we exchanged bands
	 C		 Cmaj7	   D
And we practically lived off the land.

Bm7
You adopted a fox cub
				    D
Whose mother was somebody's coat.
Bm7
You fed him by hand, then snuggled him down
       D
In the grandfather bed, while I wrote.
Cmaj7/E
And we grew our own maize
				B7
And I only occasionally went into town
Cmaj7/E
To stock up on antibiotics
			 B7
And shells for the shotgun that I kept around.
Em					Em7
I told the kids stories while you worked your loom
	  C		    Cmaj7	    D
And the sun went down sooner each day.

Bridge:

G Em7/F#  Em Em7  C Cmaj7  D Dadd9 (2x)
Bm7  D (2x)
Cmaj7/E  B7 (2x)

Bm7
Then the leaves all fell down,
						    D
And the crops all turned brown.  It was over.
Bm7
As the first snowflakes fell
			     D
I realized all was not well in the camp.

Cmaj7/E
The kids caught bronchitis,
				    B7
The space heater ran out of diesel,
    Cmaj7/E
One weekend a friend from the east
				  B7
(Rot his soul) stole your heart.

Em					  Em7
I said, =D2Fuck it then, take the kids back to town,
C	     Cmaj7	  D	Dadd9
Maybe I'll see you around.=D3

G Em7/F#  Em Em7  C Cmaj7  D Dadd9 (2x)

	 G	   Em7/F#  Em	   Em7
And so leaving all our hopes and dreams
	 C	Cmaj7	  D	=

To the wind and the rain,
Dadd9	 G	    Em7/F# =

Taking only our stash,
	   Em		  Em7
Left our litter and trash
    C		Cmaj7
And set out =

D	 Dadd9 G (etc. to fade)
On the road again.
