The Rolling Stones - Far Away Eyes guitar tab

This is a first attempt so go easy on me.

I'm sure this is not the same key as the recorded version.

But I haven't been able to find this anywhere.

Corrections to ross@uleth.ca please.

Far Away Eyes (M. Jagger/K. Richards)

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 G D

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

-------------------------------------------------------------

CHORUS:

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
