Verse 1:
Em                                         G
  The treetops, the chimneys, the snowbed stories, 
       Em                                          Cm
winter grey, wildflowers, those meadows of heaven, wind in the wheat
Em                                       G             Em
  a railroad across waters, the scent of grandfatherly love
                                       Cm
Blue bayous, Decembers, moon through a dragonfly's wings.


Chorus:
Am
Where is the wonder? Where's the awe?
                            Em     Am
Where's dear Alice knocking on the door?
                          F 
Where's the trapdoor that takes me there
         C                      G
were the real is shattered by a Mad Marsh Hare.


Chorus 2:
Em
Where is the wonder? Where's the awe?
                                 Am           Em
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for?
           C
Before the years take me,
  G               D
I wish to see the lost in me.

Verse 2:
Em                                   G          Em
  A ballet on a grove, still growing young all alone.
                                        Cm
A rag doll, a best friend, the voice of Mary Costa.


Chorus:
Am
Where is the wonder? Where's the awe?
                            Em     Am
Where's dear Alice knocking on the door?

Where's the trapdoor that takes me there
         C                      G
were the real is shattered by a Mad Marsh Hare.


Chorus 2:
Em
Where is the wonder? Where's the awe?

Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for?

I wish to see the lost in me. (2x)
