clover.

town.

Three o'clock in the morning, you get a

deal. Do return to Oz; we
F7 G#
thank the world with smiles and clenching
C
jaws. Please
C
help me friend from coming down. I’ve
F7 G#
lost my face and now it can’t be
C
found. Is
C
this the return to Oz? The grass is
F7 G#
dead the gold is brown and the sky has
C
claws. There’s a
C
wind-up man walking round and round; what
F7 G#
