Turning Away

Em

[Chorus]
Em
In darkness we do what we can
   C              D
In daylight we're oblivion
    Em
Our hearts so raw and clear
    D             C        D     
Are turning away, turning away 
   Em
from here

[Verse]
Em                                
On the water we have walked like 
            D
the fearless child
         C                      
What was fastened we've unlocked 
           D         Em
revealing wondrous wild
Em                             
And in search of confirmation we 
                       D
have jumped into the fire
    C                              
And scrambled with our burning feet
         D               Em
 through uncontrolled desire

[Chorus]
Em
In darkness we do what we can
   C              D
In daylight we're oblivion
    Em
Our hearts so raw and clear
    D             C        D     
Are turning away, turning away 
   Em
from here

[Verse]
Em                                
There's a well upon the hill from 
            D
our ancient past
         C                    
Where an age is standing still 
         D          Em
holding strong and fast
Em                                
And there's those that try to tame
                         D
 it and to carve it into stone
       C                         
Ah but words cannot extinguish it 
    D                 Em
however hard they're thrown

[Chorus]
Em
In darkness we do what we can
   C              D
In daylight we're oblivion
    Em
Our hearts so raw and clear
    D             C        D     
Are turning away, turning away 
   Em
from here

[Verse]
Em                                
On Loch Etive they have worked 
                 D
with their Highland dreams
   C                               
By Kilcrennan they have nourished 
      D        Em
in the mountain streams
Em                                
And in searching for acceptance 
                D
they had given it away
         C                         
Only the children of their children
          D                 Em
 know the price they had to pay

[Chorus]
Em
In darkness we do what we can
   C              D
In daylight we're oblivion
    Em
Our hearts so raw and clear
    D             C        D     
Are turning away, turning away 
   Em
from here

[Accapella]
N.C.
In darkness we do what we can
N.C.
In daylight we're oblivion
N.C.
Our hearts so raw and clear
N.C.
Are turning away, turning away from 
here

[Chorus]
       Em
And in darkness we do what we can
   C              D
In daylight we're oblivion
    Em
Our hearts so raw and clear
    D             C        D     
Are turning away, turning away 
   Em
from here
    D             C        D     
Are turning away, turning away 
   Em
from here
    D             C        D     
Are turning away, turning away 
   Em
from here
