Pink Floyd – On The Turning Away (Ukulele)

Em     D        G
[tab]         C        Em
From the pale and downtrodden

        D          G
And the words they say

         C
Which we won't understand

Em                        C  G
Don't accept that what's happening

Em                        G  C
Is just a case of others' suffering

G                          C       Em
Or you'll find that you're joining in

    D       G
The turning away

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 stirring

          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

        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
