Far Away
A E A7 D A E A
I will live my life as a lobsterman's wife on an island in the blue bay.
A E A7 D
He will take care of me, he will smell like the sea,
A E A
And close to my heart he'll always stay.
A E A7 D A
I will bear three girls all with strawberry curls, little Ella and
E A
Nelly and Faye.
A E A7 D
While I'm combing their hair, I will catch his warm stare
A E A
On our island in the blue bay.
E E7 D A
Far away far away, I want to go far away.
E E7 D A
To a new life on a new shore line.
E E7 D A
Where the water is blue and the people are new.
E E7 *F flatted 5th thing (strummed) A
To another island, in another life.
A E A7 D A E A
There's a boy next to me and he never will be anything but a boy at the bar.
A E A7 D
And I think he's the tops, he's where everything stops.
A E A
How I love to love him from afar.
A E A7 D A *F# in the bass A sus thing
When he walks right past me then I finally see on this bar stool I can't stay.
A E A7 D
So I'm taking my frown to a far distant town
A E A
On an island in the blue bay.
E E7 D A
Far away far away, I want to go far away.
E E7 D A
To a new life on a new shore line.
E E7 D A
Where the water is blue and the people are new.
E E7 *F flatted 5th thing (strummed)
To another island, in another life.
Amaj7 *F# in the bass A sus thing E
I want to go far away, away, away. I want to go far away, away,
A E E7 D A E E7 *F# in the bass-A-sus thing
away, I want to go far away, away, ay ay ay uh ay uh ay
E E7 D A
Where the water is blue and the people are new.
E E7 D A
To another life, to another life.
E E7 *F flatted 5th thing (strummed)
To another shore line
Amaj 7 (strummed)
In another life.
