Em 
 
Em   /F#   G 
Turn, turn away 
         C/G               G 
From the sound of your own voice 
/F#     Em      C/G    G 
Calling no one, just a silence 
         C/G            G 
Learn to see around the edge 
Am           C/G 
Fall off the avalanche 
D     Em 
Turn away 
 
Em   /F#       G 
Hold, hold the line 
     C/G          G 
That fixes you in time 
/F#       Em     C/G       G 
Keeps you under, takes you over 
    C/G              G 
The wall that love divides  
Am        /B       C/G 
Between waking and slumber 
D     E    
Turn away 
 
    G   C/G   Bsus4/F#  B/F# 
E   G   C/G   Bsus4/F#  B7/F# 
Asus2   Cadd9   Dsus4/G   D/F# 
F/C   B/F#   Em 
 
Em   /F#    G 
Turn, turn away 
         C/G                G 
From the weight of your own words 
/F#    Em      C/G     G 
It's a measure for the devil 
    C/G                G 
And betray the ache of change 
Am    /B      C/G 
Once you have spoken 
D     E    
Turn away 
 
    G   C/G   Bsus4/F#  B/F#
