[E] [F#m]
[C#m] [F#m] I recall [A] when I was small [D] how I spent my days [E] alone.
[D] [F#m] The busy world [A] was not for me [D] so I went and found [C#m] my own.
[D#] [D] I would [C#] climb the garden wall [B] with a [A] candle in [C#] my hand.
[B] I'd hide [C#] inside a hole of [D] rock and sand.
[C#m]
[F#m] On the stone an ancient [A] hand [D] in a faded yellow [E]
green.
[F#m] Made alive a worldly wonder [D] often told but never [C#m] seen.
[G] [D] Now and ever [C#m] bound to labor [F#] on the [E] sea and [C#] in the sky.
[F#] [B] Every man [A#m] and beast appeared [B] a friend as real [C#m] as I.
[C#] [D] Before the fall [C#m] when they wrote it on the wall.
[F#m] When there wasn't even any [E] Hollywood [D] paper to call.
[C#m] When they wrote it on the wall [D] for you and me [G] we [F] understood.

[F#m] Can it be the sad design could be the [E] very same.
[F#m]
A woolly man without a face and a beast without [E] a name.
[D#]
[F#m] Nothing here but [C#] history [B] and you [E] see what [C#] happens on.
[B]
Memory [A#m] rush over me [B] now I step into [C#m] the [C#] song.
[D]
Before the fall [A] when they wrote it on the wall.
[F#m] When there wasn't even [A] any Hollywood [E] [D] paper to call.
[C#m] When they wrote it on the [Bm] wall for you and me [G] we [F] understood.
