The Rolling Stones – Far Away Eyes (Guitar)

G                                                 C
I was driving home early Sunday morning through Bakersfield

G                                              D
Listening to gospel music on the colored radio station

        G                                     C
And the preacher said, "You know you always have the

G            D
Lord by your side"

G
And I was so pleased to be informed of this that I ran

         C                              G                 D
Twenty red lights in his honor Thank you Jesus, thank you lord

G                                                  C
I had an arrangement to meet a girl, and I was kind of late

G                                          D
And I thought by the time I got there she'd be off

G                                                C
She'd be off with the nearest truck driver she could find

G                                                D
Much to my surprise, there she was sittin in the corner

G                                 C
A little bleary, worse for wear and tear

      G         D        G
Was a girl with far away eyes

             C            D
So if you're down on your luck

        G            C                       G           C
And you can't harmonize   (2ND TIME: I KNOW YOU ALL SYMPATHIZE)

       G         D         G
Find a girl with far away EYES

             C            D
And if you're downright disgusted

         G             C
And life ain't worth a dime

       G         D        G
Get a girl with far away eyes

G                                                    C
Well the preacher kept right on saying that all I had to do was send

G                                                D
Ten dollars to the church of the sacred bleeding heart of Jesus

G                                C
Located somewhere in Los Angeles, California

G                                     D
And next week they'd say my prayer on the radio

G                            C
And all my dreams would come true

G                                         D
So I did, the next week, I got a prayer with a girl

G                        D            G
Well, you know what kind of eyes she got
