Wish You Were Here (Pink Floyd)

A pretty good note-for-note transcription here, with a nice choice of chords. I would perhaps suggest adding another improvised bridge to this arrangement with the 2nd verse repeated after it. As for the song itself, I think it's the closest to describing what staying friends means. Luckily, I have never lost a friend of mine because of the mental breakdown just like happened to Syd Barrett, but playing this song I can feel the message of absence that's transcending through the entire album. The composition's mood is so despondent and plaintive, yet it's also very gentle and even romantic.Waters and Gilmour's collaboration made this one of the most lyrical modern pieces. Just playing the opening guitar riff gets you fully submerged.
