B              E
Down a tunnel, in a tube
D                     A
On the floor, knocked down by booze
B            E
Busy man has blown his fuse
      D                A
While crossword people look for clues
  G#m               E
I say sir, get your nose out of the paper
      F#                    D#
Take a  good look at what's going down
G#m       E
Get clued into the shape of
    F#       F#/E      F#/D#   F#/C#
The shape of things to come


[Chorus]
         B                       Bsus  B
Have you seen the writing on the wall?
         B                       Bsus  B
Have you seen the writing on the wall?
E                            Esus E
Reaching out for you it calls

Did you look for your cause?
F#      F#/E    F#/D#   F#/C#
Writing on the wall?
B         E         D         A
Na na na, na na na, na na na, na na na,
B         E         D         A
Na na na, na na na, na na na, na na na,


[Verse]
B                  E
Life, I'm told's a compromise
D        A
Lethargy in disguise
B              E
Excuses by the faint of heart
D                   A
Stuck in the mud before they start
  G#m      E
I say sir, wouldn't you rather be
F#              D#
  On top of the world
   G#m        E
As opposed to always travelling
F#    F#/E      F#/D#   F#/C#
underneath the ground?


[Chorus]
