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 others' suffering

Or you'll find that you're joining in

The turning away"                               Now the chords.



(Em)   (D)     G

It's a sin that somehow

            C         Em

Light is changing to shadow

          D    G

And casting its 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 slurring

          D         G

Where the speechless unite

     C

In a silent accord

G                    C         Em

Using words you will find are strange

G                     Em         C

And mesmerized 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

Em      D       G

No more turning away

         C

From the coldness inside

G                    C        Em

Just a world that we all must share

G                       Em        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?
