Ingrid Michaelson – Far Away (Guitar)

       A       E         A7           D          A      E           A    E
I will live my life as a lobsterman's wife on an island in the blue bay.

        A            E           A7             D
He will take care of me, he will smell like the sea,

     A           E                A
And close to my heart he'll always stay.

       A          E               A7        D             A
I will bear three girls all with strawberry curls, little Ella and

E         A     E
Nelly and Faye.

          A             E             A7            D
While I'm combing their hair, I will catch his warm stare

       A      E          A
On our island in the blue bay.

     E        E7           D       A
Far away far away, I wanna go far away.

     E                       A
To a new life on a new shore line.

          E         E7          D          A
Where the water is blue and the people are new.

    E            D (hold)
To another island, in another life.

          A           E         A7         D      A           E         A    E
There's a boy next to me and he never will be anything but a boy at the bar.

      A              E                A7         D
And I think he's the tops, he's where everything stops.

      A        E             A
How I love to love him from afar.

        A                E         A7      D          A                F#m7add11
When he walks right past me then I finally see on this bar stool I can't stay.

       A          E         A7          D
So I'm taking my frown to a far distant town

      A      E          A
On an island in the blue bay.

     E        E7           D       A
Far away far away, I wanna go far away.

     E                      A
To a new life on a new shore line.

          E        E7           D          A
Where the water is blue and the people are new.

    E            D (hold)
To another island, in another life.

          E        E7           D          A
Where the water is blue and the people are new.

   E                 D       A
To another life, to another life.

    E
To another shore line

D             Amaj7
  In another life.
