Intro: Bb Bb Well I came a long way to be here today Eb And I left you so long on this avenue F And here I stant in the strangest land Bb Not knowing what to say or do Bb As I gaze around at the strangers in town Eb I guess the only stranger is me F And I wonder (yes I wonder) Yes I wonder (oh I wonder) Bb Is this the way life's meant to be? I know it's only a day since I was taken away And left standing here looking in wonder The ground at my feet maybe it's just the old street But everything that I know lies under And when I see what they've done to this place that was home Shame is all the I feel And I wonder (yes I wonder) Yes I wonder (oh I wonder) Bb ( Bb Cm Dm Eb ) Is this the way life's meant to be? REFR?O Eb F Too late, too late to cry Bb D Gm The people say Eb F Bb ( Bb Cm Dm Eb ) Too late for you, too late for me Eb F You've come so far Bb D Gm Now you know everything my friend C Eb (Come and see the wonders of our world...) Solo: Verso As I wonder around this wreck of a town Where people never speak aloud With its ivory towers and its plastic flowers I wish I was back in 1981 Just to see a face instead of this place Now I know what you mean to me And I wonder (yes I wonder) Yes I wonder (oh I wonder) Is this the way life's meant to be?
