A FAR CRY FROM YOU
Tracy Lawrence
2004, Dreamworks Records
Capo 2nd Fret  To Match Recording 
D    D/F#    D    D/F#
I'm on a Dwhite line D/F#runnin' down the DinterstateD/F#  
Tryin' to Bmwipe away the rain that's runnin' down my face
Going Gany old where, any old place
Just Emsome place elseA  
By Bmnow you know that F#mI'm not there
And if Gyou don't know why
Well Bmcan't you see
The F#mtears it took for Gme to say goodbye
AYeah DI left a few on F#myour old sweater
GI watched them fall over D/F#lovesick letters
And EmI cried a river
D/F#Cried a mile-wide one
EmI even cried some A7crocodile ones
DFrom out here you F#mcan't hear me callin'
GYou won't see me when D/F#I start crawlin'
Cause Emthis time
Baby, the D/F#next time that I Emdo
I'll be a A7far cry from Dyou
In a Dmoment of truth, D/F#it's a Dmatter of factD/F#  
There's only Bmone way to go, and it ain't goin' back
So GI ain't stopped since I stopped for gas
A Emhundred miles agoA  
Right Bmnow I'm caught
Some F#mwhere between gone and Ggone for good
And these Bmtears will dry
But, F#mthere've been times I Gwondered if they would
AYeah DI left a few on F#myour old sweater
GI watched them fall over D/F#lovesick letters
And EmI cried a river
D/F#Cried a mile-wide one
EmI even cried some A7crocodile ones
DFrom out here you F#mcan't hear me callin'
GYou won't see me when D/F#I start crawlin'
Cause Emthis time
Baby, the D/F#next time that I Emdo
I'll be a A7far cry from Dyou
DFrom out here you F#mcan't hear me callin'
GYou won't see me when D/F#I start crawlin'
Cause Emthis time
Baby, the D/F#next time that I Emdo
I'll be a A7far cry from Dyou

A FAR CRY FROM YOU

Tracy Lawrence

2004, Dreamworks Records

Capo 2nd Fret To Match Recording

D D/F# D D/F#

I'm on a white line runnin' down the interstate

Tryin' to wipe away the rain that's runnin' down my face

Going any old where, any old place

Em A

Just some place else

Bm F#m

By now you know that I'm not there

And if you don't know why

Well can't you see

F#m G

The tears it took for me to say goodbye

A D F#m

Yeah I left a few on your old sweater

In a moment of truth, it's a matter of fact

There's only one way to go, and it ain't goin' back

So I ain't stopped since I stopped for gas

Em A

A hundred miles ago

Right now I'm caught

F#m G

Some where between gone and gone for good

And these tears will dry

F#m G

But, there've been times I wondered if they would

A D F#m

Yeah I left a few on your old sweater

G D/F#

I watched them fall over lovesick letters

And I cried a river

D/F#

Cried a mile-wide one

Em A7

I even cried some crocodile ones

You won't see me when I start crawlin'

I'll be a far cry from you
