[G] On the turning away
From the pale and downtrodden
And the words they say
Which we won't understand
Don't accept that what's happening
Is just a case of utter [C] suffering
[G] Or you'll find that you're joining in
The turning away
[Em] It's a [D] sin that [G] somehow
Light [C] is changing [Em] to shadow
And [G] [D] casting [G] its shroud [C] over all we have known
[Em] Unaware [C] the ranks have [G]
grown
[Em] Driven on by a heart [C] of stone
[G] We could find that [C] we're all [Em]
alone
In [D] the dream of [G] the proud
On [D] the waves [G] of the night
As [C] the day time is [Em] scurrying
Where [D] the speechless [G] unite [C] in a silent accord
[Em] Using words you [C] will [G] find a strange
[Em] Mesmerized as they light [C] the flame
[G] Feel the new wind [C] of [Em] change
On [D] the waves of the [G] night

[E] [G] more turning away
From [C] the weak and [G] the weary
No more turning away from the coldness [C] inside
[Em] Just the world [C] that we all must [G] share
[Em] Is not enough just to [G] stand [C] and stare
[G] Is it only [C] a dream that [Em] there'll be no [D] more turning?
