Pink Floyd - Burning Bridges (Waters, Wright)
G F D Bb F C G
G F
Bridges burning gladly, merging with the shadows,
D
Flickering between the lines.
Bb F
Stolen moments floating softly on the air,
C G
Born on wings of fire and climbing higher.
Ebmaj7 Dbmaj7
Ancient bonds are breaking, moving on and changing sides.
Ebmaj7 Dbmaj7
Dreaming of a new day, cast aside the other way.
Ab G
Magic visions stirring, kindled by and burning flames rise in her eyes.
Ebmaj7 Dbmaj7
The door that stands ajar, the walls that once were high.
Ebmaj7 Dbmaj7
Beyond the gilded cage, beyond the reach of ties.
Ab
The moment is at hand.
G
She breaks the golden band.
Ebmaj7 Dbmaj7 Ab G

| Obscured by Clouds is a vastly underrated album by Pink Floyd, coming as it did between their best album (Meddle) and their most famous (Dark Side of the Moon). While OBC can't stand up to either album it is next to, it is still very good, probably fitting in at eigth in the PF catalogue, right behind either The Wall or The Final Cut (both of which I immensely enjoy, if that says anything). This is an excellent song, one of the best on the album. Could it be about dropping the bomb on Hiroshima/Nagasaki. I know that people near the explosion vaporized, and you could see where they were standing because they left shadows imprinted on bridges. Just a thought. | |

| Correct Lyrics (at least I think): Bridges burning gladly Merging with the shadows, Flickering between the lines. Stolen moments floating softly on the air, Borne on wings of fire and climbing higher. Ancient bonds are breaking, Moving on and changing sides. Dreaming of a new day, Cast aside the other way. Magic visions stirring, Kindled by and burning flames rise in her eyes. The doorway stands ajar, The walls that once were high. Beyond the gilded cage, Beyond the reach of ties. The moment is at hand. She breaks the golden band. | |

| It's about a woman who cheats on her husband, and maybe leaves him too | |

| It seems that Demau Senae takes all of his lyrics from this site: http://utopia.knoware.nl/users/ptr/pfloyd/songs/songs.html That site also has "stolen mormons" and "ancient bulbs," the same mistakes that I have found in Fearless, and I'm sure that any other songs with mistakes are the same as those on this site. | |
