Turn to stone
C D - Dm
1. The city streets are empty
now, the lights don’t shine no mo…re,
Fm
G
and so the
songs are way down low, turning, turning, turning.
C
D - Dm
A sound that flows into my
mind, the echoes of the dayli….ght,
Fm
G
C
of everything that is alive,
in my blue world.
Am Em Dm
- Dm-Em-F-G
I turn to stone, when you are gone, I turn to stone.
Am Em Dm - Dm-Em-F-G - C
Turn to stone, when you comin'
home, I can't go on.
C
D
Dm
2. The dying embers of the
night, a fire that slowly fades till dawn,
Fm G
still glow upon the wall so
bright, burning, burning, burning.
C D
Dm
The tired streets that hide
away, from here to everywhere you go,
Fm G C
roll past my door into the day
in my blue world.
Am Em Dm - Dm-Em-F-G
I turn to stone, when you are gone, I turn to stone.
Am Em
Dm - Dm-Em-F-G
Turn to stone, when you comin'
home, I can't go on.
Am Em Dm - Dm-Em-F-G
I turn to stone, when you are gone, I turn to stone.
G#
Yes, I'm turnin'
to stone 'cos you ain't comin' home.
C#
Why you ain't comin'
home if I'm turnin' to stone?
Bb
You've been gone for so long
and I can't carry on,
C# - C
yes, I'm turnin',
I'm turnin', I'm turnin' to
stone.
C
D - Dm
3. The dancing shadows on the
wall, the two-step in the ha….ll,
Fm G
are all I see since you've been
gone turning, turning, turning.
C
D
Dm
Through all I sit here and I
wait, I turn to stone, I turn to stone,
Fm G C
you will return again some day
to my blue world.
Am Em Dm - Dm-Em-F-G
I turn to stone, when you are gone, I turn to stone.
Am Em
Dm - Dm-Em-F-G
Turn to stone, when you comin'
home, I can't go on.
Am Em Dm - Dm-Em-F-G
- C
I turn to stone, when you are gone, I turn to stone.
