Statues chords by Amy MacDonald

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
D

Verse 1:
D
There's a boy across the street
D
He's just trying to find his way
D
Coming over to my house
D
I see him every day
D
His mum and dad are busy
D

They never have the time
D
To listen to his feelings
D
What's playing on his mind

Chorus:
        G                      A
All the children stand like statues
       D                      Bm
On the street where I was born
       G                      A
It's a street where nothing changes
        D                     Bm
But the road where I come from
        G                A
Now the cherry blossom's falling
        F#m                 Bm
And the nights are drawing in
        G                  A
Oh, I'm standing here, I'm frozen
       F#m         G      D
As the world goes 'round again

Verse 2:
D
The playground bell keeps ringing
D
A moving van appears
D
A change about to happen
D
That we haven't seen for years
D
A family's moving in
D
I never thought I'd see
D
On the street where nothing changes
D
A girl that looks like me
D
I watch her from across the street
D
I don't know what to say
D
Time will tell if we'll be friends
D
But that's another day

Chorus:
        G                      A
All the children stand like statues
       F#m                    Bm
On the street where I was born
         G                      A
It's the street where nothing changes
        F#m                   Bm
But the road where I come from
        G                A
Now the cherry blossom's falling
        F#m                 Bm
And the nights are drawing in
        G                  A
Oh, I'm standing here, I'm frozen
       F#m         G      D
As the world goes 'round again

Bridge:
Em           A D        G
Don't change nothing at all
       Em     A    D          G N.C.
Street lights lead me back home
     D   G
Am I dreaming?
      D  G
Is it morning?
     D     G
Am I still here?
     D    G  N.C.
Am I gone?

On the street where I was born
         G                      A
It's the street where nothing changes
        F#m                   Bm
But the road where I come from

Now the cherry blossom's falling

As the world goes 'round again
       F#m     G      D
And we all go 'round again
