A E D  A E A  A F#m D Dm A


[Verse]
A
Fields are deathly quiet
A         E
Where the cotton used to grow
F#m
I'm a stranger in a land
D
That I used to know
     A
In a land
E
A land I've not forgotten
     D
Look away
    A
Far Away

A
Everything has changed here
A          E
"Cept some things inside of me
     F#m
I've hid 'em from the world
          D
Kept them under lock and key
D         A
Like the sound of my mama's voice
E
Callin' me back home
F#m    D
To the place
      Dm   A
Where I belong


[Chorus]
A
Far Away
A   E
Far Away
F#m
Don't know why I left you
    D        F#m       D
And look how long I've stayed
    A
Far away
A   E
Far away
F#m     D      Dm  A
How'd I get so far away


[Verse]
A
Carved my name one Sunday morning
A    E
On a sweet magnolia tree
F#m
I cried when I walked away
D
Broke my heart to leave
A
Took that little piece of me
E
Put it in my pocket
F#m
I've lost myself a time or two
      D
And I never once forgot it


[Chorus]
    A
Far away
    E
Far away
F#m
Don't know why I left you
    D        F#m       D
And look how long I've stayed
    A
Far away
    E
Far away
F#m     D      Dm  A
How'd I get so far away

A
Far away
    E
Far away
F#m
Don't know why I left you
    D
But look how long I've stayed
    A
Far away
    E
Far away
        D          A
How'd I get so far away
F#m       D      Dm  A   (Fade Out A)
How did I get so far away
