Chorus:
G                        F
I wondered all night, I wondered all night about-
Dm      G
You-o-o-oo
                                F
I`ve been here for years, just wanderin'
round the neighbor-
Dm      G
Hoo-oo-oood

         Am
Like a fresh manifestation of an old phenomenon
A breeze whips through the trees
The rustling leaves and branches bend together
They're cued to sway
                                                 D 
Forever by the forces of the Lord's choreography

Chorus

Just for a second the combination of sights,
sounds around him
Sends him hurtling back to the mirror of
all of his teenager thoughts and fears
He passes big houses and family cars
They saddled the horses in cobblestone yards
He catches the moon looking down from the stars
Just like it's done for years and years

   C  G
I wondered
   C  G
I wondered
   Dm7                      G
I wondered all night about you
   C  G
I wondered
   C  G
I wondered
   Dm7
I wondered all night
                 C  D
All night about you

Perpetual feeling in the grown-up world
that's around him
That there's secrets that could be
revealed with knowledge and philosophy
And "Oh to be dumb, oh to be smart"
He might be nursing a broken heart
But feeling this way, he's just playing a part
That's been around for centuries

Chorus:
I wandered all night
I wondered all night about you
I've been here for years
Just wandering around the neighborhood

I wandered all night
I wondered all night about you
