Shine On You Crazy Diamond (part 5)
- Pink Floyd

The other versions of this song are great for the parts leading up to part 5 and after part 5 (is it sad that i', 17 and know exactly where each part ends and a new part begins in a song older than I am?), but I've been listening alot to the Wush You Were Here album, and i think these chords match up more closely w/ the song.

Gm Gb (lead into next line)
Remember when you were young,
Bb
you shone like the sun.
Eb D Cm/Bb Bb F
Shine on you crazy diamond.

Repeat chord progression for "Now there's a look in your eye..."
Gm
You were caught on the crossfire
Gm.maj7/F# Gm7 C7(-9)
of childhood and stardom, blown on the steel breeze.

Eb C7(-9)
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
Bb Dm D7
come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr,
Gm
and shine!

The rest of the verses follow the same pattern.

Yeah, that's probably the weirdest chord progression ever, and its amazing.

Some of the crazy chords:
Eb Gm.maj7/F# C7(-9)
e 3 2 3
B 4 3 2
G 3 3 3
D 1 0 2
A x x x
E x x x

I think the rest are self explanitory?

If I'm playin this for people, i normally cut it down alot, I'll lead in with Syd's Theme and the Fm slide to Gm
Syd's Theme (David Gilmour wrote this phrase for Syd Barret, the original guitarist and his close friend)
e------------0-----
B------6-----------
G---------0-------- (repeating) on the last set i'll strun a C and the play A--3--- x about 18, then A--/5---
D---8-------------- E--1--- E--/3---
A------------------
E------------------

and I'll end with that as well.

Hope you guys have as much fun with it as I do.
