[Verse 1]
C
D         Em              C           G      D
 Have you heard what they said on the news today?
         Em            C            G   D
Have you heard what is coming to us all?
         Em          C               G            D
That the world as we know it will be coming to an end
         Am              C     D
Have you heard, have you heard?

[Verse 2]
Em             G               C                  G
  He sees them in the distance where the darkened clouds
D
roll
Em              G              C   G     D
  He could feel tension in the atmosphere
Em              G
  He would look in the mirror,
C          G   D
see an old man now
Em        G              C        D
  Does it matter they survive somehow?
Em                  G              C              G   D
  They said there's nothing can be done about the situation
Em                  G               C     D
  They said there's nothing you can do at all
Em           G               C              D
  To sit and wait around for something to occur
        Am            C    D
Did you know, did you know?
Em      G                 C              G      D
  As he stares across the garden looking at the meadows
Em            G               C     D
  And wonders if they'll ever grow again
Em         G             C         G       D
  The desperation of the situation getting graver
Em        G              C         D
  Getting ready when the wild wind blows

[Verse 3]
         Em             C           G      D
Have you seen what they said on the news today?
         Em              C             G   D
Have you heard what they said about us all?
       Em           C                 G            D
Do you know what is happening to just every one of us
         Am              C     D
Have you heard, have you heard?
           Em     C             G                D
There will be a catastrophe the like we've never seen
           Em           C                   G  D
There will be something that will light the sky
         Em          C
That the world as we know it,
        G            D
it will never be the same
        Am            C    D
Did you know, did you know?

[Verse 4]
Em           G            C              G     D
  He carries everything into the shelter not a fuss
Em        G              C      D
  Getting ready when the moment comes
Em        G                 C               G       D
  He has enough supplies to last them for a year or two
Em        G                C     D
  Good to have because you never know
Em             G               C             G     D
  They tell us nothing that we don't already know about
Em             G               C       D
  They tell us nothing that is real at all
Em          G                C               G
  They only fill us with the stuff that they want
D       Am            C    D
Did you know, did you know?

[Verse 5]
Em            G                 C            G       D
  He's nearly finished with the preparations for the day
Em             G             C      D
  He's getting tired that'll do for now
Em            G              C             G       D
  They are preparing for the very worst to come to them
Am                       C         D
  Getting ready when the wild wind blows

  He sees the picture on the wall,
G         D       C       G   D
 it's falling down upside down
Em                                G         D
  He sees a teardrop from his wife roll down her face,
C       G    D
 saying grace
Em
  Remember times they had,
          G             D        C           G D
they flash right through his mind left behind
Em                        G        D   C            G D
  Of a lifetime spent together long ago will be gone

[Verse 6]
Em
  They've been preparing for some weeks now
For when the crucial moment comes
To take their refuge in the shelter
C                D              Em
 Let them prepare for what will come
They make a tea and sit there waiting
They're in the shelter feeling snug
Not long to wait for absolution
C                  D             Em
 Don't make a fuss, just sit and wait

[Chorus]
        C               G
Can't believe all the lying,
        D               Em
All the screens are denying
         C          G               Em
That the moments of truth have begun
          C              G
Can't you see it on the TV?
        D                      Em
Don't believe them in the least  bit
            C       D           Em
Now the days of our ending have begun

[Verse 7]
Em
  Say a prayer when it's all over
Survivors unite all as one
Got to try and help each other
C            D       Em
 Got the will to overcome

[Chorus]
          C               G
I can't believe all the lying,
        D               Em
All the screens are denying
         C          G               Em
That the moments of truth have begun
          C              G
Can't you see it on the TV?
        D                      Em
Don't believe them in the least  bit
            C       D           Em
Now the days of our ending have begun

[Outro]
Em          G
  When they found them,
          C             G          D
had their arms wrapped around each other
Em              G             C             D
  Their tins of poison laying near by their clothes
Em             G               C                  D
  The day they both mistook an earthquake for the fallout,
Em      G               C        D
  Just another when the wild wind blows..
