Verse 1:

Em                     C     D
A thousand years from now on
Em                          C    D
The flame of life's gone out
Em                       C     D
The earth - a frozen wasteland
G               Em            C
No living trace - no sounds

Em                    C       D
The world did die in anguish
Em                     C      D
The ashes turned to dust
Em             D
Fire and ice - blackness of night
G
Man's evolution has lost


Chorus:

Am                    G
Don't tell me that we didn't know
Am                       G
And that we haven't been told
Am                  G    Em      D
The final s.o.s. we all ignored

D                             Em     C     Em     C
We've seen the writing on the wall
                   Em     C     Em     C
The writing on the wall


Verse 2:

Em                   C    D
The science of the madman
Em                         C    D
Was getting out of control
Em                     C    D
For every creature comfort
G                  Em     C
There is a heavy toll

Em                    C     D
We turned on mother nature
Em                        C    D
Stabbed her deep in a back
Em                        D
We ripped out her lungs - poisoned her veins
G
Internal acid attack


Chorus:

Am                    G
Don't tell me that we didn't know
Am                       G
And that we haven't been told
Am                  G    Em      D
The final s.o.s. we all ignored

D                             Em     C     Em     C
We've seen the writing on the wall
                   Em     C     Em     C
The writing on the wall
                        Em     C     Em     C
Seen the writing on the wall

Verse 3:

Em                    C     D
I'm just painting a picture
Em                  C     D
Of how it could be
Em                           D
But time's running out - the clock's ticking down
G
You're not blind - can't you see


Chorus:

Am                    G
Don't tell me that we still don't know
Am                           G
And that we're not being told
Am                   G          Em      D
The final s.o.s. we shouldn't ignore

                             Em      C    Em      C
Just read the writing on the wall
                   Em      C      Em      C
The writing on the wall
                        Em      C      Em      C
Read the writing on the wall
                   Em      C      Em      C
The writing on the wall
