E The city streets are empty F# now (the lights don’t shine no more)
F#m and so the songs are way down Am low (B turning, turning)
E A sound that flows into my F# mind (the echoes of the daylight)
F#m of everything that is a-Am live (in B my blue E world)

I C#m turn to stone when G#m you are gone,
I F#m turn to stone F#m G#m A B
C#m Turn to stone when you co-G#m min’ home,
I F#m can’t go on F#m G#m A B E

E The dying embers of the F# night (a fire that slowly fades till dawn)
F#m still glow upon the wall so Am bright (B turning, turning)
E The tired streets that hide a-F# way (from here to everywhere they go)
F#m roll past my door into the Am day (in B my blue E world)

I C#m turn to stone when G#m you are gone,
I F#m turn to stone F#m G#m A B
C#m Turn to stone when you co-G#m min’ home,
I F#m can’t go on F#m G#m A B
C#m Turn to stone when G#m you are gone,
I F#m turn to stone F#m G#m A B

Yes, I’m C turnin’ to stone ‘cos you ain’t comin’ home
Why you F ain’t comin’ home if I’m turnin’ to stone?
You’ve been D gone for so long and I can’t carry on,
yes, I’m F turnin’, I’m turnin’, I’m turnin’ to stone E

E The dancing shadows on the F# wall (the two-step in the hall)
F#m are all I see since you’ve been Am gone (B turning, turning)
E Through all I sit here and I F# wait (I turn to stone, I turn to stone)
F#m You will return again some Am day (to B my blue E world)

I C#m turn to stone when G#m you are gone,
I F#m turn to stone F#m G#m A B
C#m Turn to stone when you co-G#m min’ home,
I F#m can’t go on F#m G#m A B
C#m Turn to stone when G#m you are gone,
I F#m turn to stone F#m G#m A B E

I C#m turn to stone when G#m you are gone … (rep. y desap.)
