[Verse 1]

Dm         
Across a painted desert lies 
                F
a train of vagabonds
Dm                  
All that’s left of what 
          
we were it’s what 
          F
we have become
Dm            
Once our empires glorious but 
                  F
now the empire’s gone
Dm               
The dead gave us the 

time to live and 
                 F
now our time is done
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

C                 
Now we are victorious 
     Dm
we’ve become our slaves
Bb         
A land of hope and glory building 
  C
graveyards for the brave
 
 
[Chorus]

Dm         F        C             G
Have you seen the writing on the wall
Dm         F         C      G
Have you seen that writing
Dm       F       C              G
Can you see the riders on the storm
Bb                C   
Can you see them riding ~ 
 Bb                C
can you see them riding
 
 
[Riff]

Dm
 
 
[Verse 2]

Dm            
Holding on to jury is that 
             F
all we ever know
Dm      
Ignorance our judge and jury 
                  F
all we’ve got to show
      C       
From Hollywood to Babylon
      G
holy war to kingdom come
       Dm         
On a trail of dust and ashes 
                         F
when the burning sky is done
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

   C            
A tide of change is coming and 
 Dm
that is what you fear
Bb                
The earthquake is a coming but 
 C
you don’t want to hear
You’re just too blind to see
 
 
[Chorus]

Dm         F        C             G
Have you seen the writing on the wall
Dm         F         C      G
Have you seen that writing
Dm       F       C              G
Can you see the riders on the storm
Bb                C     
Can you see them riding
 Bb                C
can you see them riding
