On The Turning Away

Em D G On the turning away C Em From the pale and downtrodden D G And the words they say C Which we won't understand Em C G Don't accept that what's happening Em G C Is just a case of all the suffering G C Or you'll find that you're joining Em D G In the turning away Em D G It's a sin that somehow C Em Light is changing to shadow D G And casting it's shroud C Over all we have known Em C G Unaware how the ranks have grown Em G C Driven on by a heart of stone G C Em We could find that we're all alone D G In the dream of the proud Em D G On the wings of the night C Em As the daytime is stirring D G Where the speechless unite C In a silent accord Em C G Using words you will find are strange Em G C And mesmerised as they light the flame G C Feel the new wind of change Em D G On the wings of the night Em D G No more turning away C Em From the weak and the weary D G No more turning away C From the coldness inside Em C G Just a world that we all must share Em G C It's not enough just to stand and stare G C Em Is it only a dream that there'll be D G No more turning away
