Welcome to this wonderworld
F A#
Everybody take your sledges
Gm F D# A#
Winterland Plutocracy
F A#
Down the slope don't fear the hedges
A# C# G#
Everybody in their box
F# G#
Waiting under rights of action
A# C# G#
Raise your heads and hold your breath
F# G#
I can't stand your putrefaction
A# C# G#
I can smell your brain decay
F# G#
As you look down at the stage and
A# C# G#
Drive me mad and then insane
A#m C# G# A#m
Welcome to the show
Gm
You've been waiting for the one
D# A# F
To bring you joy and ecstasy
Gm
And you've been waiting for a song
D# A# F
And you demand to feel the tragedy
A# F Gm
But when it's right out of control
D#
And it's not your song anymore
A#
And you are ready to forget
F
The truth that you'd been asking for
Gm D#
I'm not afraid to sacrifice
F
And I don't care bout your advice
Cm C
As I spread my wings and fly
A# Dm A#
No love - it's pain you've come to feed
F C
In mental strain I crawl and bleed
You make me please
A#m G# C#
Forever roaming
G# A#m
You will hear it scream
F# G#
The cries of Speedhoven
A#m G# C#
Forever roaming
G# A#m
Every starless night
F
You will hear the cries
Gm
You'll never get:
A# D# F
I'll never be the one that you want me to be
Gm D#
And all the treasures that you hold
F
All your diamond rings and gold
All your flake and look and tongue
A# F Gm
I have tried and it was wrong
D# Gm
You tried to push me up a notch
D# F
But all I made was an itchy crotch
Fornication, ass galore
A# F Gm
I wanted love and I want more
D# Gm
Muckrakers waiting for the prey
D# F
Muckrakers want me to obey
But you will never own me
C
Though you pay
A# Dm
This opera is haunted they will say
A# Dm C
That's where they've driven the light insane
A#m G# C#
Forever roaming
G# A#m
You will hear it scream
F# G#
The cries of Speedhoven
A#m G# C#
Forever roaming
G# A#m
Every starless night
F
You will hear the cries
A#m G# C#
Forever roaming
G# A#m
You will hear it scream
F# G#
The cries of Speedhoven
A#m G# C# G# F#
Forever you'll hear it scream
A#m F
La-la-la-la...
A# D# A# F
Gm D#
In a cold winter night I had a vision
A#
Taking me by my hand
F
Leading me to the door
Gm
To rescue me from the wastelands
Dm D#
The glance of the shining ivories
A#
A# world that they can't understand
F
Out of sound, out of reason
Gm
The voice of their laughter was gone
D# A#
Taken away, time for a change
F
I'm walking over
Gm D#
Flying away, flying away
A#
Dying into another world
F
Pure and divine
Gm
And the laughter dies
Gm F Gm F
