Far Away Eyes by The Rolling Stones

Chords with lyrics

I'm sure this is not the same key as the recorded version.
But I haven't been able to find this anywhere.

Far Away Eyes    (M. Jagger/K. Richards)
Chord diagramC majorC
I was driving home early Sunday morning through Bakersfield
Chord diagramD MajorD
Listening to gospel music on the colored radio station
    Chord diagramC majorC
And the preacher said, "You know you always have the
Chord diagramD MajorD
Lord by your side"
Chord diagramG+G
And I was so pleased to be informed of this that I ran
     Chord diagramD MajorD
Twenty red lights in his honor Thank you Jesus, thank you lord

Chord diagramD MajorD

Chord diagramC majorC
I had an arrangement to meet a girl, and I was kind of late
Chord diagramD MajorD
And I thought by the time I got there she'd be off
Chord diagramC majorC
She'd be off with the nearest truck driver she could find
Chord diagramD MajorD
Much to my surprise, there she was sittin in the corner
Chord diagramC majorC
Chord diagramA augmentedA little bleary, worse for wear and tear
   Chord diagramG+G
Was a girl with far away eyes
-------------------------------------------------------------
CHORUS:
       Chord diagramD MajorD
So if you're down on your luck
    Chord diagramC majorC
And you can't harmonize  (2ND TIME: I KNOW YOU ALL SYMPATHIZE)
    Chord diagramG+G
Find a girl with far away EYES
       Chord diagramD MajorD
And if you're downright disgusted
     Chord diagramC majorC
And life ain't worth a dime
    Chord diagramG+G
Get a girl with far away eyes
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Chord diagramC majorC
Well the preacher kept right on saying that all I had to do was send
Chord diagramD MajorD
Ten dollars to the church of the sacred bleeding heart of Jesus
Chord diagramC majorC
Located somewhere in Los Angeles, California
Chord diagramD MajorD
And next week they'd say my prayer on the radio
Chord diagramC majorC
And all my dreams would come true
Chord diagramD MajorD
So I did, the next week, I got a prayer with a girl
Chord diagramG+G
Well, you know what kind of eyes she got
