INTRO
[A] [D] [A] [F#m] [E] [A]
VERSE 1
Every[A]day I'm awake,
I've been [D]thinking about[A] you
And I [F#m]can't get you o[D]ver my [E]mind
You're the [A]girl of my dreams,
The [D]mother of my [A]children
I'm as [F#m]proud as any ma[D]n can [E]be a[A]live
PRE-CHORUS
As the [F#m]wind blows heavy down the [A]mountain side
And the [F#m]darkness of night closes [E]in
CHORUS
As I [A]lie in my bed
I can [D]hear your heart p[A]ounding
far a[F#m]way in a[D]nother [E]coun[A]try
far a[F#m]way in a[D]nother [E]coun[A]try
VERSE 2
And I [A]dream of the day
We'll be [D]packin' up and l[A]eaving
This [F#m]God-forsaken c[D]orner of the [E]world
Are the [A]boys getting taller?
Is your [D]tummy getting [A]broader?
Do we [F#m]know if it's a [D]boy or [E]it's a [A]girl?
PRE-CHORUS
And I [F#m]reach out to touch you in the [A]middle of the night
And I [F#m]swear you are lying next to [E]me
CHORUS
But you're [A]not, I'm awake
With my [D]poor heart [A]aching
Far a[F#m]way in a[D]nother [E]coun[A]try
Far a[F#m]way in a[D]nother [E]coun[A]try
BRIDGE
[E]One of these bright, sunny [F#m]days
I'll be c[D]oming down that road a[A]gain
My j[E]ourney at an [F#m]end
God [D]bless you until t[E]hen

VERSE 3
How I [A]miss, how I miss
The c[D]olour of the s[A]pringtime
and the [F#m]moonlight, s[D]hining through your [E]hair
Say he[A]llo to my friends
and [D]all of our [A]kindred
Tell them[F#m] I will s[D]oon [E]be [A]there
PRE-CHORUS
There's a [F#m]tear in my eye as I [A]try to sleep
Are the [F#m]boys still calling out my [E]name
CHORUS
Tell 'em, 'd[A]addy's in a fight between g[D]ood and e[A]vil
Far a[F#m]way in a[D]nother [E]coun[A]try
