Em On the t D urning aw G ay
From the p C ale and downtr Em odden
And the w D ords they s G ay
Which we w C on't understand
"D Em on't accept that what's h C appen G ing
Em Is just a case of all the s G uffer C ing
G Or you'll find that you're j C oining  Em in
The t D urning aw G ay"
Em It's a s D in that someh G ow
Light is ch C anging to sh Em adow
And c D asting it's shr G oud
Over  C all we have known
Em Unaware how the r C anks have gr G own
Dr Em iven on by a h G eart of st C one
W G e could find that we're  C all al Em one
In the dr D eam of the pr G oud
Em On the w D ings of the n G ight
As the d C aytime is st Em irring
Where the sp D eechless un G ite
In a s C ilent accord
Em Using words you will f C ind are str G ange
And m Em esmerised as they l G ight the fl C ame
F G eel the new wind of ch C ange
Em On the w D ings of the n G ight
N Em o more t D urning aw G ay
From the w C eak and the w Em eary
No more t D urning aw G ay
From the c C oldness inside
J Em ust aworld that we  C all must sh G are
Em It's not enough just to st G and and sta C re
G Is it only a dr C eam that there'll b Em e
No more t D urning aw G ay ?
