G             C                  G    G+la G G+la
Beneath the white fire of the moon
G               C                  G
Love's wings are broken all too soon
Am
We never learn
D7             Bm        Em
Hurt together, hurt alone
C       
Don't you sometimes
           D                      G
Wish your heart was a made of stone
G              C                    G
We turn the wheel, and break the chain
G              C                    G
Put steel to steel, and laugh at pain
                                    Am
We're dreamers in castle's made of sand
D7                   Bm      Em
The road to Eden's overgrown
C
Don't you sometimes
D                            G
Wish your heart was made of stone 

Look at the headline
Em   D              C      D
Big crowd at the crazy house
Em       D          C          D
Long queue for the joker's shoes
Em    D            C           D
Ten rounds in the ring with love
C                
Do you lose and win
Or win and lose 

Sweet rain like mercy in the night
(Lay me down, wash away the sorrow)
Caress the world and set it right
(Lay me down, show me your tomorrow)
Summer tears, winter and the moment's flown
Don't you sometimes
Wish your heart was a made of stone
Mercy, mercy, wish your heart was a heart of stone 

You get the picture
No room for the innocent
Peak season in lonely town
Knocked out of the ring by love
Are you down and up
Or up and down 

I ask the river for a sign
(In a dream, we go on together)
How long is love supposed to shine
(In a dream, diamonds are forever)
But you and I, hurt together, hurt alone
Don't you sometimes
Wish your heart was made of stone 

Mercy, mercy, wish your heart was a heart of stone
(With a heart of stone, you'll be well protected)
Don't you sometimes
Wish your heart was made of stone
(With a heart of stone, you'll be well connected)
