Overture[Instrumental] Louis Clark, 2:26
Turn To Stone
The city streets are empty now THE LIGHTS DON'T SHINE NO MORE
and so the songs are way down low TURNING TURNING TURNING
A sound that flows into my mind THE ECHOES OF THE DAYLIGHT
of everything that is alive IN MY BLUE WORLD
I turn to stone when you are gone, I turn to stone.
Turn to stone when you comin' home, I can't go on.
The dying embers of the night A FIRE THAT SLOWLY FADES TILL DAWN
still glow upon the wall so bright BURNING BURNING BURNING
The tired streets that hide away FROM HERE TO EVERYWHERE THEY GO
roll past my door into the day IN MY BLUE WORLD
I turn to stone when you are gone, I turn to stone.
Turn to stone when you comin' home, I can't go on.
Turn to stone when you are gone, I turn to stone.
Yes, I'm turnin' to stone 'cos you ain't comin' home.
Why you ain't comin' home if I'm turnin' to stone?
You've been gone for so long and I can't carry on,
yes, I'm turnin', I'm turnin', I'm turnin' to stone.
The dancing shadows on the wall THE TWO-STEP IN THE HALL
are all I see since you've been gone TURNING TURNING TURNING
Through all I sit here and I wait I TURN TO STONE I TURN TO STONE
You will return again some day TO MY BLUE WORLD
I turn to stone when you are gone, I turn to stone.
Turn to stone when you comin' home, I can't go on.
Turn to stone when you are gone, I turn to stone.
I turn to stone when you are gone, I turn to stone.
Turn to stone when you comin' home, I can't go on.
Turn to stone when you are gone, I turn to stone.
Jeff Lynne, 3:51

Evil WomanYou made a fool of me, but them broken dreams have got to end. Hey woman, you got the blues, cos' you ain't got no one else to use. There's an open road that leads nowhere, so just make some miles between here and there. There's a hole in my head where the rain comes in, You took my body and played to win, Ha Ha woman it's a crying shame, But you ain't got no one else to blame. CHORUS E-evil Woman, E-evil Woman, E-evil Woman, Evil Woman Rolled in from another town, Hit some gold too hot to settle down, But a fool and his money soon go separate ways, And you found a fool lyin' in a daze, Ha Ha woman what you gonna do, You destroyed all the virtues that the Lord gave you, It's so good that you're feeling pain, But you better get yourself on board the very next train. CHORUS:REPEAT Evil woman how you done me wrong, But now you're tryin' to wail a different song, Ha Ha funny how you broke me up, you made the wine now you drink the cup, I came runnin' every time you cried, Thought I saw love smilin' in your eyes, Ha Ha very nice to know, that you ain't got no place left to go. CHORUS:REPEAT Jeff Lynne, 4:20 Musical Chord: A minor
ShowdownShe cried to the southern wind About a love that was sure to end Every dream in her heart was gone Headin' for a Showdown Bad dreamer, what's your name Looks like we're ridin' on the same train Looks as through there'll be more pain There's gonna be a Showdown And it's rainin' all over the world It's raining all over the world Tonight, the longest night She came to me like a friend She blew in on a southern wind Now my heart is turned to stone again There's gonna be a Showdown Save me, oh save me It's unreal, the suffering There's gonna be a Showdown And it's rainin' all over the world It's raining all over the world Tonight, the longest night Jeff Lynne, 5:08 Musical Chord: C minor
Livin' ThingSailin' away on the crest of a wave It's like magic Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' & slidin' It's magic CHORUS And you, and your sweet desire, You took me, higher and higher It's a livin' thing, It's a terrible thing to lose It's a given thing What a terrible thing to lose. Making believe this is what you've conceived From your worst day, Moving in line when you look back in time To your first day CHORUS -- repeat Takin' a dive 'cos you can't halt the slide Floating downstream, So let her go don't start spoiling the show It's a bad dream CHORUS -- repeat Jeff Lynne, 4:04 Musical Chord: C
Hold On Tight
Hold on tight to your dream
Hold on tight to your dream
When you see your ship go sailing
When you feel your heart is breaking
Hold tight to your dream.
It's a long time to be gone
Time just rolls on and on
When you need a shoulder to cry on
When you get so sick of trying
Just hold tight to your dream
CHORUS:
When you get so down that you can't get up
And you want so much but you're all out of luck
When you're so downhearted and misunderstood
Just over & over & over you could
Accroches-toi a ton reve
Accroches-toi a ton reve
Quand tu vois ton bateau partir
Quand tu sents -- ton coeur se briser
Accroches-toi a ton reve.
REPEAT CHORUS:
Hold on tight to your dream
Hold on tight to your dream
When you see the shadows falling
When you hear that cold wind calling
Hold on tight to your dream.
Oh, yeah
Hold on tight to your dream
Yeah, hold on tight...
To your dream.
Jeff Lynne, 2:58

Thousand EyesChorus The night has a thousand eyes and they're all on you The night has a thousand ears Listening to your cries Let it work its magic Let it work its magic The night has a thousand eyes You, you had to slip away After all that spark You, said all that you could say And slipped into the dark I could not let you go Alone into the night I had to let you know The magic there, in the night air Chorus You, somewhere out in the dark Runs a wounded heart You, stumbling in the night In the air of after light You take along the fears Did you waste these years, And did they warn you of the night zone all alone Chorus Sometimes it takes a fight To keep everything on track, And sometimes it takes a starry night To bring the magic back This was the time And this was the place with starlight on your face And the moon on the rise, The night has a thousand eyes Eric Troyer, 4:28
Can't Get It Out Of My Head
Midnight on the water.
I saw the ocean's daughter.
Walking on a wave's chicane,
staring as she called my name.
And I can't get it out of my head,
no, I can't get it out of my head.
Now my old world is gone for dead
'cos I can't get it out of my head.
Breakdown on the shoreline,
can't move, it's an ebbtide.
Morning don't get here till night,
searching for her silver light.
And I can't get it out of my head,
no, I can't get it out of my head.
Now my old world is gone for dead
'cos I can't get it out of my head, no no.
Bank job in the city.
Robin Hood and William Tell and Ivanhoe and Lancelot, they don't envy me.
Sitting till the sun goes down,
in dreams the world keep going round and round.
And I can't get it out of my head,
no, I can't get it out of my head.
Now my old world is gone for dead
'cos I can't get it out of my head, no no.
No, I can't get it out of my head,
no, I can't get it out of my head.
Now my old world is gone for dead
'cos I can't get it out of my head, no no no no.

Telephone Line
Hello--how are you
Have you been alright, through all those lonely nights,
That's what I'd say, I'd tell you everything,
If you'd pick up that telephone.
Hey--how you feelin'
Are you still the same
Don't you realize the things we did were all for real not a dream,
I just can't believe
They've all faded out of view.
I look into the sky
(The love you need ain't gonna see you through.)
And I wonder why
(The little things are finally coming true.)
CHORUS
Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
O.K. so no--one's answering,
Well can't you just let it ring a little longer
I'll just sit tight, through the shadows of the night
Let it ring for evermore.
CHORUS -- repeat

Roll Over Beethoven
Gonna write a little letter gonna mail it to me local D.J.
it's a jumpin little record I want my jockey to play
Roll Over Beethoven, gotta hear it again today
My temperature's risin, the juke box's blowin a fuse
My heart's beatin a rhythm, singin out rhythm and blues
Roll Over Beethoven, they're rockin in two by two
Well if you feel you like it, go get your lover and reel and rock it
roll it over and move on up now, go for cover and reel and rock it
roll it over, Roll Over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky the news
Early in the mornin I'm a givin you the warnin,
don't you step on my blue suede shoes
hey diddle diddle gonna play my fiddle,
I ain't got nothing to lose
Roll Over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky the news
She wiggles like a glow-worm, dances like a spinning top
she got a crazy partner, you should have seen her reel and rock
long as she got a dime, the music will never stop
Well if you feel you like it, go get your lover and reel and rock it
roll it over and move on up now, go for cover and reel and rock it
roll it over, Roll Over Beethoven, dig these rhythm and blues
Roll Over Beethoven, Roll Over Beethoven,
Roll Over Beethoven, Roll Over Beethoven,
Roll Over Beethoven, dig these rhythm and blues?
