Jeffrey Foucault - Far From Me
[INTRO]
G
[VERSE 1]
As the cafe was Cclosing
On a warm summer Dnight
CCathy was cleaning the spoonsG  
The Cradio played Gthe hit paraEmdeA  
And I hummed along with the DtuneD7  
She Casked me to change the Gstation
She said the Csong just drove her inDsane
But it wasn't Gthe music Cplaying
It was me Dthat she was trying to Gblame
[CHORUS]
And the Csky is black and Gstill now
On the Chill where the angels Dsing
Ain't it Cfunny how an old broken Gbottle
Looks just like a Ddiamond Gring
And its Cfar, Dfar from Gme
[VERSE 2]
Well, I leaned on my left legC  
In the parking lot Ddirt
CCathy was closing the Glights
A CJune bug flew Gfrom the warmth he once Emknew
And AI wished for once I wasn't DrightD7  
Why Cwe used to laugh toGgether
And we'd Cdance to any old Dsong
You Gknow, she still laughs Cwith me
But she waits Djust a second to Glong
[CHORUS]
The Csky is black and Gstill now
On the Chill where the angels Dsing
Ain't it Cfunny how an old broken Gbottle
Looks just like a Ddiamond Gring
And its Cfar, Dfar from Gme
[INSTRUMENTAL:]
G   C   G   C
D   G   C   D   G
[VERSE 3]
Well, I started the engineC  
And I gave it some gasD  
And CCathy was closing her Gpurse
We Chadn't gone far Gin my beat up old Emcar
And AI was prepared for the DworstD7  
"CWill you still see me toGmorrow?"
"CNo, I've got too much to Ddo"
Well, a Gquestion ain't really a Cquestion
When Dyou know the answer Gtoo
[CHORUS]
And the Csky is black and Gstill now
On the Chill where the angels Dsing
Ain't it Cfunny how an old broken Gbottle
Looks just like a Ddiamond Gring
And its Cfar, Dfar from Gme

Jeffrey Foucault - Far From Me

[INTRO]

[VERSE 1]

As the cafe was closing

On a warm summer night

C G

Cathy was cleaning the spoons

C G Em A

The radio played the hit parade

D D7

And I hummed along with the tune

C G

She asked me to change the station

C D

She said the song just drove her insane

G C

But it wasn't the music playing

D G

It was me that she was trying to blame

[CHORUS]

C G

And the sky is black and still now

C D

On the hill where the angels sing

C G

Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle

D G

Looks just like a diamond ring

C D G

And its far, far from me

[VERSE 2]

Well, I leaned on my left leg

In the parking lot dirt

C G

Cathy was closing the lights

C G Em

A June bug flew from the warmth he once knew

A D D7

And I wished for once I wasn't right

C G

Why we used to laugh together

C D

And we'd dance to any old song

G C

You know, she still laughs with me

D G

But she waits just a second to long

[CHORUS]

C G

The sky is black and still now

C D

On the hill where the angels sing

C G

Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle

D G

Looks just like a diamond ring

C D G

And its far, far from me

[INSTRUMENTAL:]

G C G C

D G C D G

[VERSE 3]

Well, I started the engine

And I gave it some gas

C G

And Cathy was closing her purse

C G Em

We hadn't gone far in my beat up old car

A D D7

And I was prepared for the worst

C G

"Will you still see me tomorrow?"

C D

"No, I've got too much to do"

G C

Well, a question ain't really a question

D G

When you know the answer too

[CHORUS]

C G

And the sky is black and still now

C D

On the hill where the angels sing

C G

Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle

D G

Looks just like a diamond ring

C D G

And its far, far from me
