THE THIN ICE
Pink Floyd
(Waters)

INTRO:(with baby crying)
C           Am7           Fmaj9       G
C     G     F     C/G     Am7

VERSE:
C               Am
Mamma loves her baby
F               G
and daddy loves you too
C                    Am
and the sea may look warm to you babe
F                    G
and the sky may look blue

C  G  F  C/G  Am
Ooooooooooooh babe
C  G  F  C/G  Am    Am7  Am6
Oooooooh baby blue
C  G  F  C  Am  D7  G
Ooooooooooh ooooooh babe

C                Am
If you should go skating
       F                        G
On the thin ice of modern life
C                       Am
Dragging behind you the silent reproach
     Fmaj7                 G
Of a million  tear stained eyes
C                         Am
Dont be surprised, when a crack in the ice
F                  G
Appears under your feet
         C                     Am
You slip out of your depth and out of your mind
          F                        G
With your fear flowing out  behind you
N.C.
As you claw the thin ice
