Am                               G
I grew up seeing things a little differently, appearing
   Em
Disappearing, hardly innocent, nor
Am               G     Em
Tied down to the ground
Am                                    G
I learned to roll and tumble with the punches
                        Em
Glory in my stripes and spots
                      Am
Walk by invisible and never make a sound

    F            G                   Am
But heavy is the crown that's always hidden
F             G               Am
Tender is the heart you never see
G                        C            Am                   F                           G
Hard and fast shines the grin that we flash, but there's a vulnerable stripe or two on me
      F                          G
Maybe any place outside of Wonderland
                  G
Is not for me, my friend

[Chorus]
Am                           F
If I leave my grin behind, remind me
               C
That we're all mad here
          G
And it's okay
Am                           F
Sun up, sun down the shadows hide me down in
D7                        G7
Wonderland, Wonderland, nobody knows the way
           C               G
But if you find it in your dreams, you can
C               Am
Find it at your dayjob
C         G        F
Somewhere south of Hell
Am
Take the path to left or right with
G
Just your gut to guide you
F                    G      Em      Am
The story is not for anyone else to tell

[Post-Chorus]
Am          G               D/F#
Go down the rabbit hole and out the other side
Am                   G             D/F#
Can't go home in the middle of the magic carpet ride
    Am              G              D/F#
You gotta greet the sun before his lovely daughter moon
    Am                G               D/F#
You can't forsake the journey for the safety of your room
          G          F   G   Am
Until you learn your les-son well

[Verse]
Am
I have learned to see and hear
G
Everybody loud and clear
        Em                 G
But the truth comes out in riddles that are
Am             G
Safe enough to share
       Am
That's how it is in songs, you see
    G
And stripes always look good on me
Em                        Am
Whether or not I'm really there (smile hangs in the air)

    F            G             Am
But heavy is the burden of the wise ones
     F           G                  Am
When no one understands a word they say
    G                         C  Am
The Jabberwock never bothered anyone
    F                           G    D7
But nobody believes him to this day, Hey
    F   G      Em
And why should they?

[Chorus]
Am                           F
If I leave my grin behind, remind me
          C
We're all mad here
          G
And it's ok
Am                           F
Sun up, sun down the shadows find me out in
D7                        G7
Wonderland, Wonderland, nobody knows the way
           C               G
But if you find it in your dreams
        C               Am
You can find it at your dayjob
C         G        F
Somewhere south of Hell
Am
Take the path to left or right with
G
Just your gut to guide you
    F       D7      G      Em      Am
The story's not for anyone else to tell

[Post-Chorus]
Am          G
Go down the rabbit hole and
D/F#
Out the other side
    Am                   G
You can't go home in the middle of the
D/F#
Magic carpet ride
    Am              G
You gotta greet the sun before his
D/F#
Lovely daughter moon
    Am                G
You can't forsake the journey for the
D/F#
Safety of your room
          G          F  G   Am
Until you learn your lesson well

[Verse]
Am        G          D/F#          F   G
Is it the stripes or the spots you see?
Am               G                    D/F#            F  G
Was it hearts or diamonds, babe, that led you here to me?
Am                G              D/F#            F     G
Darling, you know better than to trust a pack of cards!
             Am
What have we learned
    G        D/F#     F      G        Am
The world is never as mad as it could be

[Bridge]
Am          G           D/F#        F       G
Ra Da Da Ra Da Ra Da Ra Da Ra Da Ra Da Da Da       (3x)

[Outro]
Am                           F
If I leave my grin behind, remind me
          C
We're all mad here
         E7  Am
And it's o---k!
