Don't Turn Me Away

	  		Intro: F - C/E - Dm - Am/C - Bb - C - F - (C - C/E - C/G) 
 
F                    C/E 
We shared such a special love 
Dm                    Am/C 
It seemed to have no end 
Bb           C                 F         (C - C/E - C/G) 
But now it hurts me just to remember 
 
F                    C/E 
Your eyes used to tell me so much 
     Dm                   Am/C 
That words could never find 
Bb            C 
And now you say you don't know 
Gm 
Where your future lies 
Gm7/F           Eb 
But you've got to find it now 
      (Csus4 -C) 
Or get left behind 
F                 C/E 
Don't turn me away 
                 Dm              Am/C 
I can't forget it all in just one day 
             Bb                    C 
Take some time to speak your mind 
                  F    (C - C/E - C/G) 
But say it's not over 
 
F               C/E 
Don't turn me away 
                  Dm                Am/C 
Don't close the door on us this way 
      Bb                          C 
I'm so sure that there's much more 
                    F     (C - C/E - C/G) 
You just have to tell me 
 
 
F                  C/E 
Remember those fireside nights 
   Dm              Am/C 
It's not that long ago 
Bb           C                          F     (C - C/E - C/G) 
You said you wanted to stay there forever 
 
F              C/E 
I gave you the strength of my hand 
      Dm                     Am/C 
When things were running low 
Bb    C                      Gm 
I didn't know you would go back on 
 
What you said 
Gm7/F               Eb 
There must be some reasons there 
          (Csus4 - C) 
That you don't want to share 
F                 C/E 
Don't turn me away 
                 Dm              Am/C 
I can't forget it all in just one day 
             Bb                    C 
Take some time to speak your mind 
                  F    (C - C/E - C/G) 
But say it's not over
 
F               C/E 
Don't turn me away 
                  Dm                Am/C 
Don't close the door on us this way 
      Bb                          C 
I'm so sure that there's much more 
                    F     (F - Eb - Dsus4) 
You just have to tell me 
 
 
Cm                 Cm/Bb 
And just when you needed me 
      Bb            F 
I said I'd be there until the end 
Cm               Cm/Bb 
What is it that's changed in you 
      Bb              C x 2 
When all I want is to be your friend 
   (Csus4 - C)  C 
( I need a friend ) 
 
 
Don't turn me away 
<F - C/E - Dm - Am/C - Bb - C> x 5 
 
F - C/E - Dm - Am/C - Bb - (C - C/E) - F
