Track 1 - Turning Away
CAPO: 3rd Fret
[Intro]
Am Dm7
[Chorus]
In Amdarkness we do what we can
In Dm7daylight we're oGblivion
Our Amhearts so raw and clear
Are Dm7turning away, Gturning away fromAm here
[Verse 1]
N.C.On Amwater we have walked like the fearless chiGld
What was Ffastened, we've unlocked, revealing Gwondrous Amwild
And in search of confirmation, we have jumped into the Gfire
And Fscrambled with our burning feet, through Guncontrolled Amdesire
[Chorus]
N.C.And in Amdarkness we do what we can
In Fdaylight we're oGblivion
Our Amhearts so raw and clear
Are Fturning away, Gturning away fromAm here
[Verse 2]
N.C.There's a Amwell upon the hill from our ancient Gpast
Where an Fage is standing still, holding Gstrong and Amfast
And there's those that try to tame it and to carve it into Gstone
Ah, but Fwords cannot extinguish it, howGever hard they're Amthrown
[Chorus]
N.C.And in Amdarkness we do what we can
In Fdaylight we're oGblivion
Our Amhearts so raw and clear
Are Fturning away, Gturning away fromAm here
[Instrumental]
Am G Am
[Verse 3]
N.C.On AmRacherie they have worked with their island Gdreams
By Lough FCleggan they have nourished in Gmountain Amstreams
And in searching for acceptance they had given it aGway
Only the Fchildren of their children know the Gprice they had to Ampay
[Chorus]
N.C.In Amdarkness we do what we can
In Fdaylight we're oGblivion
Our Amhearts so raw and clear
Are Fturning away, Gturning away fromAm here
[Chorus]
N.C.And in Amdarkness we do what we can
In Fdaylight we're oGblivion
Our Amhearts so raw and clear
Are Fturning away, Gturning away fromAm here
[Outro]
Am G Am

[Intro]
C Dm7 C Dm7 C

The letter stopped in a Dmminor key F
A Christmas card that you Gdrew for me C
Done by the handF that I knew so Cwell Dm
Disguised the message that youG could not Ftell G C

I see you bent above your Dmpotter's wheel F
The piece you're throwing, is the Gpiece you feel C
The softest colourF and an eye so Ctrue Dm
For cups and bowlsG that are shaped like Cyou
[Chorus]
You work in porcelain Fcut by wire Dm
And now as ever, lovers Gwalk through fire C
When we were breaking,F we made nCo sound Dm
The pieces almost touchingG on the Fground Dm7 G C
[Verse 3]
And now your silence says, there's Dmsomeone there F
She stands behind you as she Gstrokes your hair C
How does she hold you, like a Flong lost Cfriend? Dm
Or are you like me, on your Gown aCgain?
[Interlude]
C F Dm G C
[Verse 4]
And so I write you in a Dmminor key F
Wondering if there's something Gleft for me C
I'm only writing soF that I can Csleep Dm
I never found anotherG love as Fdeep C
[Chorus]
You work in porcelain Fcut by wire Dm
And now as ever, lovers Gwalk through fire C
When we were breaking,F we made nCo sound Dm
The pieces almost touchingG on the Fground C
[Chorus]
You work in porcelain Fcut by wire Dm
And now as ever, lovers Gwalk through fire C
When we were breaking,F we made nCo sound Dm
The pieces almost touchingG on the Fground Dm7 G C
