Far away where the soft winds blow
F/A G F (E)
Far away from it all
F F/A
There is a place you go
F/A G F
Where teardrops fall
F F/A
Far away in the stormy night
F/A G F
Far away over the wall
F F/A
You are there in the flickering light
F/A G F
Where teardrops fall
A#
We bang the drum slowly
A#
And play the fife lowly
F
You know the song in my heart
A#
In the turning of twilight
A#
In the shadows of moonlight
C
You can show me a new place to start
F F/A
I've torn my clothes and I've drained the cup
F/A G F
Stripping away at it all
F F/A
Thinkin' of you when the sun comes up
F/A G F
Where teardrops fall
(Intro variation)
A#
By rivers of blindness
A#
In love and with kindness
F
We can hold up a toast if we meet
A#
To the cutting of fences
A#
To sharpen the senses
C
That linger in the fireball heat
F F/A
Roses are red, violets are blue
F/A G F
And time is beginning to crawl
F/A F/A
I just might have to come see you
F/A G F
Where teardrops fall
