On The Turning Away
by Pink Floyd
From A Momentary Lapse of Reason
jamesb@nevada.edu
N.C. | 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 drea of the proud On the wings of
G C Em D G
the night As the day time is stirring, where the speachless 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
The bridge is a distorted gutar playing these chords
E5 D Cadd9 C5 D5 Em D A5 (B note on fifth string)
(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 G5 C Em
No more turning away, from the weak and the weary,
D G5 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
