Intro: Bb5 Bb5 Well I came a long way to be here today Eb5 And I left you so long on this avenue F5 And here I stant in the strangest land Bb5 Not knowing what to say or do Bb5 As I gaze around at the strangers in town Eb5 I guess the only stranger is me F5 And I wonder (yes I wonder) Yes I wonder (oh I wonder) Bb5 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) Bb5 ( Bb5 C5 D5 Eb5 ) Is this the way life's meant to be? REFR?O Eb5 F5 Too late, too late to cry Bb5 D5 G5 The people say Eb5 F5 Bb5 ( Bb5 C5 D5 Eb5 ) Too late for you, too late for me Eb5 F5 You've come so far Bb5 D5 G5 Now you know everything my friend C5 Eb5 (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?
