FAR FAR FROM ME
JOHN PRINE
CAPO 2nd
G C G D
AS THE CAFÉ WAS CLOSING ON A WARM SUMMERS NIGHT, AND KATHY WAS CLEANING THE SPOONS
C G A D
THE RADIO PLAYED THE HIT PARADE, AND I HUMMED ALONG WITH THE TUNE
C D G C D
SHE ASKED ME TO CHANGE THE STATION, SAID THE SONG JUST DROVE HER INSANE
G C D G
BUT IT WASN'T THE MUSIC PLAYING, IT WAS ME SHE WAS TRYING TO BLAME
CHORUS
C G C D
AND THE SKY IS BLACK AND STILL NOW, ON THE HILL WHERE THE ANGELS SING
C G D G
AIN'T IT FUNNY HOW AN OLD BROKEN BOTTLE, LOOKS JUST LIKE A DIAMOND RING
C D G
BUT IT'S FAR FAR FROM ME.
G C D G
WELL I LEANED ON MY LEFT LEG IN THE PARKING LOT DIRT, AND KATHY WAS CLOSING THE LIGHTS
C G A D
A JUNE BUG FLEW FROM THE WARMTH IT ONCE KNEW, AND I WISHED FOR ONCE I WEREN'T RIGHT
G C D
WHY WE USED TO LAUGH TOGETHER, AND WE'D DANCE TO ANY OLD SONG
G C D G
WELL YA KNOW SHE STILL LAUGHS WITH ME, BUT SHE WAITS JUST A SECOND TO LONG
CHORUS
G C D
WELL I STARTED THE ENGINE AND I GAVE IT SOME GAS AND KATHY WAS CLOSING HER PURSE
C G A D
WE HADN'T GONE FAR IN MY BEAT UP OLD CAR AND I WAS PREPARED FOR THE WORSE
C D G C D
"WILL YOU STILL SEE ME TOMORROW?" "NO, I'VE GOT TOO MUCH TO DO"
G C D G
WELL A QUESTION AIN'T REALLY A QUESTION IF YOU KNOW THE ANSWER TO
CHORUS
