So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell
Blue Skies from pain Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail
So you think you can tell Did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts Hot Ashes for trees
Hot air for a cool breeze Cold comfort for change
Did you exchange?
For a lead role in a cage
Riff again
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year.
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found the same old fears
Wish you were here...

very nice, the riff needs to be a bit better formatted for readability but it's right

good one! But you should edit the tab to add some line breaks : begining of the tab is un readable

About this song: Wish You Were Here
"Wish You Were Here" is the title track on Pink Floyd's 1975 album Wish You Were Here. The song's lyrics encompass writer Roger Waters' feelings of alienation from other people. Like most of the album, it refers to former Pink Floyd member Syd Barrett and his breakdown. The main riff came to David Gilmour while playing his acoustic guitar in Abbey Road Studios. Gilmour then demonstrated the riff to Waters, who was impressed.
