Verse (as best as I can make out) :

E (play as standard E)
Lime and limpid green a second scene the fight between the blue you
Eb (play as A barre on 6)
once knew.

(All other chords play as A and E form barres)
G                                                            A
Floating down the sound resounds around the icey waters underground
E                                             Eb
Jupiter and Saturn, Oberon, Miranda, and Titania
G                               G#
Neptune, Titan, stars can frighten

(play following chords as E form barres falling from fret 12)
E     Eb    D     C#    C     B     Bb    A
Aaah  Aaah  Aaah  Aaah  Aaah  Aaah  Aaah  Aaah
(and again as A form barres falling from 12)

Second verse : 
(Same progression)
Blinding signs flap (???)
Flicker flicker flicker flam
Pow  Wow
Stairway scare Dan
Dare who's there (???)

(I don't understand these lyrics either...but Syd WAS on acid.. :) )
Aaah Aaah Aaah Aaah Aaah Aaah Aaah Aaah 
Aaah Aaah Aaah Aaah Aaah Aaah Aaah Aaah 

Then : (ritard)
E
Lime and limpid green the sound resounds the icey waters under
E
Lime and limpid green the sound resounds the icey waters underground.

The one on the B-Side of the Take It Back single off the Division Bell is  
faster and the solos are more Gilmour-esque - more rigid in the timing, better 
technique, less delay, etc.
The one on Ummagumma repeats the first verse and is a wee slower and more laid
back than the original.
