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
