 FAR FAR FROM ME
JOHN PRINE
CAPO 2nd


G                             C                                        D
AS THE CAFÉ WAS CLOSING ON A WARM SUMMERS NIGHT
         C                         D                          G
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
WELL I LEANED ON MY LEFT LEG IN THE PARKING LOT DIRT
         C                        D                       G
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
          C          D                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
         C                      D                         G
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
