This is the part before the singing starts the tabbed part is the lead part; the intro part is played in the background.

Once the singing comes in they play chords as the lead here they are.
To get the strum pattern right you have to know the song.
C D
So, so ya think you can tell
Am G D
Heaven from hell, blue skies from pain, can you tell a green field
C Am G
From a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? Do ya think ya can tell?
C D Am
Did they get you to trade, your hero`s for ghosts, hot ashes for trees
G D C
Hot air for a cool breeze, cold comfort for change, did you exchange,
Am G
A walk on part in the war, for a lead role in a cage?
After the verse the solo comes in over the intro part here’s the lead.

This is essentially the chorus. It’s short and like everything Pink Floyd does it’s awesome yet absurdly simple.
(Strum slowly)
C D
How I wish, how I wish you were here,
Am G D
Were just two lost soles swimming in a fish bowl, year after year?
C Am
Running over the same old ground, but have we found the same old fears,
G
Wish you were here
After that chorus part, they play the solo again.
