Turning Away chords by Dougie Maclean

Intro Em

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

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

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

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
