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

verse 3
A
How I miss, how I miss
D A
The colour of the springtime
F#m D E
and the moonlight, shining through your hair
A
Say hello to my friends
D A
and all of our kindred
F#m D E A
Tell them I will soon be there
Pre-Chorus
F#m A
There?s a tear in my eye as I try to sleep
F#m E
Are the boys still calling out my name
Chorus
A D A
Tell 'em, ?daddy?s in a fight between good and evil
F#m D E A
Far away in another country
F#m D E A
Far away in another country
F#m D E A
Far away in another country"
