Verse 3: D A Darling without you I'll go on searching D A With a lonely heart that won't stop hurting. D A Sorrow would be written on my face D A All my tears would leave its trace.

Dsus4 D F#m If your love I couldn't call my own. G A I'll turn to stone, just turn to stone, G A I'll turn to stone, turn to stone... String muting while strumming also does nicely God bless!
