this song is definitely one of roger waters’ best lyrical efforts .

C#m
could be jerusalem , or it could be cairo
B
could be berlin , or it could be prague
A
could be moscow , could be new york
B
could be llanelli , and it could be warrington
C#m
could be warsaw
B
and it could be moose jaw
A
could be rome , everybody got somewhere they call
B
home

E
when they overrun the defences
B
a minor invasion put down to expenses
A
will you go down to the airport
C#m ( in all the other choruses , this is just A B )
lounge
E
will you accept your second class status
B
a nation of waitresses and waiters
A
will you mix their martinis , will you stand
B
still for it , or will you take to the
C#m
hills

and so forth .
