On the turning away

Pink Floyd

Tom: 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 others' suffering
Or you'll find that you're joining in, The turning away"

                      G
It's a sin that some how
          C          Em           D     G5   G            C
Light is changing to shadow, and casting its shroud over all we have know
Em              C           G     Em             G        C
unaware how the ranks have grown, driven on by a heart of stone,
G                        C    Em          D     G5     G      Em     D
we could find that we're all alone in the dream of the proud  On the wings of
    G               C           Em                  D/F#        G
the night   As the day time is stirring, where the speechless unite in a
C              Em                    C       G       Em                 G
silent accord, using words you will find as strange, mesmerized as they light
     C      G                    C     Em      D            G
the flame, Feel the new wind of change on the wings of the night

(bridge is a distorted gutar playing these chords)

(a note on fifth string) C5 C#5 D5 A5  A5   Am   C  C#5 D5 A  E5

(slide up to next chord     slide down to next chord)

Em       D/F#    G               C            Em
No more turning away,  from the weak and the weary,

         D       G             C

No more turning away from the coldeness inside.

Just a world that we all must share It's not enough just to stand and stare

Is it only a dream that there'll be no more turning away
