AD A F#m E A VERSE 1A Everyday I’m awake,
DA I’ve been thinking about you
F#mDE And I can’t get you over my mind
A You’re the girl of my dreams,
DA The mother of my children
F#mDEA I’m as proud as any man can be alive
PRE-CHORUSF#mA As the wind blows heavy down the mountain side
F#mE And the darkness of night closes in
CHORUSA As I lie in my bed
DA I can hear your heart pounding
F#mDEA Far away in another country
F#mDEA Far away in another country
VERSE 2A And I dream of the day
DA We’ll be packin' up and leaving
F#mDE This God-forsaken corner of the world
A Are the boys getting taller?
DA Is your tummy getting broader?
F#mDEA Do we know if it’s a boy or it’s a girl?
PRE-CHORUSF#mA And I reach out to touch you in the middle of the night
F#mE And I swear you are lying next to me
CHORUSA But you’re not, I’m awake
DA With my poor heart aching
F#mDEA Far away in another country
F#mDEA Far away in another country
BRIDGEEF#m One of these bright, sunny days
DA I’ll be coming down that road again
EF#m My journey at an end
DE God bless you until then

DA The colour of the springtime
F#mDE and the moonlight, shining through your hair
A Say hello to my friends
DA and all of our kindred
F#mDEA Tell them I will soon be there
PRE-CHORUSF#mA There’s a tear in my eye as I try to sleep
F#mE Are the boys still calling out my name
