Far From Me chords by Jeffrey Foucault

[INTRO]

G


[VERSE 1]

                C
As the cafe was closing
                 D
On a warm summer night
C                             G
Cathy was cleaning the spoons
    C           G            Em  A
The radio played the hit parade
                            D     D7
And I hummed along with the tune
    C                      G
She asked me to change the station
             C                     D
She said the song just drove her insane
             G          C
But it wasn't the music playing
         D                       G
It was me that she was trying to blame

[CHORUS]

        C                G
And the sky is black and still now
       C                     D
On the hill where the angels sing
         C                       G
Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle
                  D       G
Looks just like a diamond ring
        C    D        G
And its far, far from me


[VERSE 2]

                             C
Well, I leaned on my left leg
                   D
In the parking lot dirt
C                     G
Cathy was closing the lights
  C            G                        Em
A June bug flew from the warmth he once knew
    A                          D      D7
And I wished for once I wasn't right
    C                  G
Why we used to laugh together
         C                D
And we'd dance to any old song
    G                      C
You know, she still laughs with me
             D                 G
But she waits just a second to long


[CHORUS]

    C                G
The sky is black and still now
       C                     D
On the hill where the angels sing
         C                       G
Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle
                  D       G
Looks just like a diamond ring
        C    D        G
And its far, far from me

[VERSE 3]

                          C
Well, I started the engine
                      D
And I gave it some gas
    C                     G
And Cathy was closing her purse
   C              G                  Em
We hadn't gone far in my beat up old car
    A                      D      D7
And I was prepared for the worst
 C                       G
"Will you still see me tomorrow?"
 C                        D
"No, I've got too much to do"
        G                       C
Well, a question ain't really a question
     D                   G
When you know the answer too


[CHORUS]

        C                G
And the sky is black and still now
       C                     D
On the hill where the angels sing
         C                       G
Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle
                  D       G
Looks just like a diamond ring
        C    D        G
And its far, far from me
