TURNING AWAY
ROXETTE - TOURISM (1990)
Let's stop turning away
From the feared and the opressed
And the ones they which we won't understand
If you start to believe that what is happening
Is just a case of others suffering
Or you'll find that your starting to turn away
G
It's no sin that somehow
C Em D G5 G C
Light is coming from the shadow, And turning away from all we have known
Em C G Em G C
Unaware of how much we can grow, And you don't have to be stoned,
G C Em D G5 G
I know that I am not alone in the dream of the proud
Em D G
On the wings of the night
C Em D G
When the daytime is coming, And the sober unite in a
C Em C G Em G
sober accord, Doing these drunks will find are strange, mesmerized as We light
C G C Em D G
the flame, We can feel the new wind of change on the wings of the night
