I grew up seeing things a little differently appearing
Gm Bb
disappearing hardly innocent nor
Cm Gm
tied down to the ground
Cm Bb
I learned to roll and tumble with the punches
Gm
glory in my stripes and spots
Bb Cm
walk by invisible and never make a sound
Ab Bb Cm
But heavy is the crown that's always hidden
Ab Bb Cm
tender is the heart you never see
Bb Eb Cm
hard and fast shines the grin that we flash
Ab Bb
but there's a vulnerable stripe or two on me
Ab Bb
Maybe any place outside of Wonderland
B
is not for me my friend
Cm Ab
If I leave my grin behind remind me
Eb
that we're all mad here
Bb
and it's okay
Cm Ab
Sun up sun down the shadows hide me down in
F Bb
Wonderland Wonderland nobody knows the way
Eb Bb
but if you find it in your dreams you can
Cm Ab
find it at your dayjob
Eb Bb Ab
somewhere south of Hell
Cm
Take the path to left or right with
Bb
just your gut to guide you
F Ab G
the story is not for anyone else to
Cm
tell.
Bb F Ab
Go down the rabbit hole and out the other side
Cm Bb
you can't go home in the middle of the
F Ab
magic carpet ride
Cm Bb
you gotta greet the sun before his
F Ab
lovely daughter moon
Cm Bb
you can't forsake the journey for the
F Ab
safety of your room
Bb Cm Ab Cm
until you learn your lesson well
I have learned to see and hear
Bb Gm
everybody loud and clear
Bb
but the truth comes out in riddles that are
Gm Bb
safe enough to share
Cm
that's how it is in songs you see
Bb Gm
and stripes always looked good on me
Bb Cm
whether or not I'm really there smile hangs in the air
Ab Bb Cm
But heavy is the burden of the wise ones
Ab Bb Cm
when no one understands a word they say
Bb Gm Eb Cm
the Jabberwock never bothered anyone
Ab Bb Ab
but nobody believes him to this day
Bb G
and why should they
Cm Ab
If I leave my grin behind remind me
Eb
that we're all mad here
Bb
and it's okay

Sun up sun down the shadows hide me down in

Is it the stripes or the spots you see
Cm Bb F Bb
Was it hearts or diamonds baby brought you here to me
Cm Bb F
Darling you know better than to trust a pack of cards

What have we learned
Bb F Bb Cm Bb
