Em
You're back again
    Am7
You roam the streets
     Am6
And crack again
       Em
You're back again

Em
You're travel-worn
Am7
Standing here in the town
Am6
Where you were born
     Em
It's not your home

    Am7
The mirror sees you
Am6
So alone
 C
Cold as stone
 Em
Yeah

You're not your own
You feel a chill
Go through your bones
You're not your own

There's something wrong
You call the doctor
On the phone
He's not at home

So you leave a message
After the tone
"I'm cold as stone"

Am             Bm          Em
Emerald green neon lights above
Am            Bm             C
Sapphire red falls on you below
 Em
Cold as stone
Am             Bm          Em
Emerald green neon lights above
Am            Bm             C
Sapphire red falls on you below

You're back again
You send a curse out
In the night
You're back all right

You're travel-worn
Standing here
In the town you were born
It's not your home

The mirror sees you
So alone
Cold as stone

Cold as stone.
