Intro  E

                           F#7
The city streets are empty now
                              F#m6
The lights don`t shine no more....
                              A
and so the songs are way down low
         B7      E
Turning  turning
                           F#7
A sound that flows into my mind
                     F#m6
The echos of the daylight
                        A
Of everything that is alive
   B  Abm  E      C#m7
In my blue world

                        F#7
The dying embers of the night
                              F#m6
A fire that slowly fades till dawn
                            Am
Still glow upon the wall so bright
         B7        E
Turning  turning
                                F#7
The tired streets that hide the way
                             F#m
From here to everywhere they go
                           Am
Roll past my door into the day
