RETURN TO OZ – SCISSOR SISTERS

INTRO: (Acoustic Guitar, 72bpm, in correct key for piano)


VERSE 1: 

Once there was a man who had a 
               
little too much   time on his hands; 

he never stopped to think that he was getting 
 
older.      When his

night came to an end,   he tried to

grasp his for his last friend, and
                                  
pretend that he could wish himself health on a four-leaf
  
clover.

CHORUS: (+Drums)
           
He said is this the return to Oz? The grass is
                
dead, the gold is brown and the sky has

claws.      There’s a

wind-up man walking round and round; what 
               
once was Emerald City's now a crystal

town.

VERSE 2: (+Piano)

    Three o'clock in the morning,   you get a 
                   
phone call from the Queen with a hundred

heads,   she says that they're all 

dead.      She tried the

last one on, it couldn't speak, fell off, and 

now she just wanders the halls,     thinking 
         
nothing.      Thinking nothing at

all.

CHORUS:
            
She said is this the return to Oz? The grass is
                
dead, the gold is brown and the sky has

claws.      There’s a

wind-up man walking round and round; what 
               
once was Emerald City's now a crystal

town.

INSTRUMENTAL: (+Electric Guitar)
                 / 
                              


VERSE 3: (-Electric Guitar)

The wheelies are cutting pavement,   and the 
               
skeksies at the rave are meant to

hide,   deep inside their sunken 

faces and their wild rolling 

eyes. But their callous words 
  
reveal,   that they can no longer 
               
feel    love or sex appeal;   the

patchwork girl has come to cinch the…

CHORUS:

deal.  Do return to Oz; we
                   
thank the world with smiles and clenching

jaws.         Please

help me friend from coming down. I’ve
               
lost my face and now it can’t be

found.        Is

this the return to Oz? The grass is
               
dead the gold is brown and the sky has

claws.      There’s a

wind-up man walking round and round; what 
               
once was Emerald City's now a crystal

town.
