We move too (Asus4)fast.

We miss so (A)much.

a hu man (Esus4)touch…

And so it (Asus4)goes.

I race a (Asus4)round,

search high and (C#m7)low for the (Dsus2)truth I used to (G)know

when there was (Dmaj7)mag ic

to be (Esus4)found.

’Cause find ing (D)Won der land is tak ing (A)time to see the child with (Bm7)in who’s al ways been there smil ing (Asus4)back at me.

So (A7)when I (D)close my eyes,

I just re (C#m7)mem ber (F#m7)and

I (Bm7)can’t help find ing (D)Won der land.

It’s not too late,

here in my prime.

Hearts can un (C#m7)break in the (D)sto ry’s nick of (G)time.

A hap py (Dmaj7)end ing,

a per fect (Esus4)rhyme.

’Cause find ing (D)Won der land

(Bm7)You’ll be find ing Won der (D)land.
