[Eb]
[F]
Not knowing what to [Bb] say or do.
As I gave a run
at all the strangers in town.
I guess the only stranger [Eb] is me.
[F] And I wonder
Yes I wonder
Is this the way
life's meant [Bb] to be?
Funny day that I was taken away
But now I stand here
looking [Eb] you on the right.
[F] Oh the palm of my feet
Maybe it's just the old seat
But everything that I know
[Bb] lies in love.
Wonder if she went back
to this place that was home.
Shame
is all [Eb] that I see.
[F] And I wonder
Yes I wonder
Is this the way
life's meant [Bb] to be?
[Eb] Too late [F] to cry
[Bb] [D] in some [Gm] other chain.

As I wander around
this regular town
where people never [Eb] speak aloud.
[F] With its hardwood
towers and its plastic
clouds I wish I was back [Bb] in 1981.
To see your
face instead of
its face now I know
what you [Eb] mean to me.

Yes I wonder
Is this the
way life's meant [Bb] to be?
Ooo
