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        Em
Are turning away, turning away from here

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

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

[Verse]
Em                                                 D
On Loch Etive they have worked with their Highland dreams
   C                                     D        Em
By Kilcrennan they have nourished in the mountain streams
Em                                                D
And in searching for acceptance they had given it away
         C                                   D                 Em
Only the children of their children 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        Em
Are turning away, turning away 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        Em
Are turning away, turning away from here
    D             C        D        Em
Are turning away, turning away from here
    D             C        D        Em
Are turning away, turning away from here
