CHORUS: C She said is this the return to Oz? The grass is F7G# dead, the gold is brown and the sky has C claws. There’s a C wind-up man walking round and round; what F7G# once was Emerald City's now a crystal C town.

Is C this the return to Oz? The grass is F7G# dead the gold is brown and the sky has C claws. There’s a C wind-up man walking round and round; what F7G# once was Emerald City's now a crystal C town.
