Just nod if you can hear
me, is there anyone home ?

Come on (come on, come on)
now, I hear, you're feeling down,
G Em Bm
well, I can ease your pain, get
you on your feet again.
A
Relax, I need some information
first,
G Em Bm
just the basic facts can you show
me where it hurts.

There is no pain, you are
receding,

a distant ship's smoke on the
horizon.

You are only coming through in
waves,

your lips move, but I can't hear what you're sayin'.

When I was a child I had a fever,

my hands felt just like two balloons.

I…….I have become comfortably
numb.

there'll be no more, ah…..ah!
But you may feel a little sick.

Can you stand up (stand up,
stand up), I do believe it's working good,

that'll keep you going for the
show, come on, it's time to go.

When I was a child, I caught a fleeting glimpse,

out of the corner of my eye.
