   [Verse 1]
A            C#m
If you could feel
A          F#m
How I must feel
    A        C#m    F#m
The winds of quiet change
A            C#m
If you could see
A           F#m
What I must see
      A      C#m    Bm
Still hidden in the rain
F#m  A       E       D
But when the thunder rolls
F#m          A      E     D
It comes and covers up my soul
F#m A        E       D
And you will take my hand
    F#m     A     E     D
And be with me in wonderland
 
 
   [Chorus]
F#m     A      D
I am an honest man
  F#m       E      D
I need the love of you
F#m    A       D
I am a working man
  F#m      E      D
I feel the winter too

A            C#m
If you could hear
A            F#m
What I must hear
     A       C#m      F#m
Then nothing would replace
A         C#m
The fifty years
A            F#m
Of sweat and tears
     A     C#m     Bm
That never left a trace
F#m A      E           D
But when I look at you I see
F#m          A    E   D
You feel the same way too
F#m A        E       D
And you will take my hand
    F#m     A     E      D
And be With me in wonderland

I am a working man
  F#m      E      D
I feel the winter too

   [Verse 3]
A              C#m
You still remember
A     F#m
Other days
     A     C#m      F#m
When every head was high
A              C#m
I watched that pride
A       F#m
Be torn apart
   A      C#m    Bm
Beneath a darker sky
F#m  A         E         D
With innocence within ourselves
F#m         A    E   D
We sing the same old song
F#m A        E       D
And you will take my hand
    F#m          A    E     D
And make believe it's wonderland
 
 
   [Chorus]
F#m   A   D
Oh    Oh  Oh
F#m        E       D
I need the love of you
F#m    A       D
I am a working man
  F#m      E      D
I feel the winter too
 
 
   [Chorus]
F#m     A      D
I am an honest man
  F#m       E      D
I need the love of you
F#m    A       D
I am a working man
  F#m      E      D
I feel the winter too

F#m  A  E  D
        Wonderland
