Guitar chords with lyrics

I would. It's my first tab so please rate. The song isn't that difficult. You just have
get the

rhythm right. I based it off of a live version I found on Youtube but it's the same as
album.

In the live version there's  a capo on the 1st fret, so it's up to you if you want to
it.  I tried to

 get the chords lined up with the words but I couldn't unfortunately.

Far Away

        A7
             E
I will live my life as a lobsterman's wife on an island in the blue bay.
              A7
            D
He will take care of me, he will smell like the sea,
         A
And close to my heart he'll always stay.
            A7
     A
I will bear three girls all with strawberry curls, little Ella and
E
Nelly and Faye.
                     E
            D
While I'm combing their hair, I will catch his warm stare
                  A
On our island in the blue bay.

           A
Far away far away, I want to go far away.
            E7           *F#thing
To a new life on a new shore line.
                     D
            A
Where the water is blue and the people are new.
         A
To another island, in another life.

                    A7
        E
 E
There's a boy next to me and he never will be anything but a boy at the bar.
              E
             D
And I think he's the tops, he's where everything stops.
              A
How I love to love him from afar.
               E
      A                  *F#thing
When he walks right past me then I finally see on this bar stool I can't stay.
                 A7
    D
So I'm taking my frown to a far distant town
                 A
On an island in the blue bay.

       A
Far away far away, I want to go far away.
           E7               *F#thing
To a new life on a new shore line.
                      D
        A
Where the water is blue and the people are new.
          Amaj7
To another island, in another life.
    Amaj7	                      *F#thing
  E
I want to go far away, away, away.  I want to go far away, away,
                                              E
     E7  *F#thing
away, I want to go far away, away, ay ay ay uh ay uh ay
                      D
           A
Where the water is blue and the people are new.
          A
To another life, to another life.
           F aug(variation)st
To another shore line
                   Amaj 7 (st)
