Pink Floyd - Your Possible Pasts (The Final Cut - 1983)

Tabbed by: Alex Brozowski

Standard tuning
Note: I haven't included the lyrics/chords because that version is fine.
This tab is mainly for the various riffs and solo
Intro: (The first and last verses are played the same way for the chords)
G: Am:
e|----------------- e|----------|B|----------------- B|----------|G|----------------- G|-----0h2--|D|-------0h2------- D|-0h2------|A|---0h2-----0h2--- A|--------0-|E|-3-------------3- E|----------|
*This is approximate. Just play around with the chords, no strumming.
Chorus intro: (first and second times)
e|---------------------|B|---------------------|G|---------------------|D|---------------------|A|---------------------|E|-3-2-0---------------|
then when he switches to D, do a little arpeggio thing like this, instead of strumming:
e|-2-----2-----|B|---3-----3---|G|-----2-----2-|D|-------------|A|-------------|E|-------------|
Now, for the solo. It's very similar to Gilmour's other solos on The Final Cut album.
This one in particular is very "pinchy," as a lot of the bends are pinched a bit for the harmonic.

This is my first tab, I think it sounds okay, even though I don't have a great ear for
things.
This is a great song, and hopefully someone can take my tab and improve upon it. Let me
if you have any questions.
