Myttained a furnace where there used to be a guy

The stone it called to me
(And now I see the things the stone has shown to me)
A rock that spoke a word

And as the screaming fire engine siren filled the air
The evidence had vanished from my charred and smoking chair

Em D G D GStanding where the statue me high

Chorus 3:
And now it is your turn
(Your turn to see the stone and then your turn to burn)
The stone it calls to you
(You can't refuse to Do the things it tells you to)
And as the screaming fire engine siren fills the air
The evidence will vanish from your charred and smoking chair
Post Chorus 2:
And what theynd was just a statue
Standing where the statue me high
And what they'll find is just a statue
Standing where the statue you high
