Alan Parsons And Christopher Cross - So Far Away Chords

_ _ _ [E] _ I've learned that's not really my first choice.
[A] _ Well, I think you'll [E] find it's even harder if you're not ready.
We're still [C#m] negotiating.
[A] _ We [E] say welcome to the mission, show [A] us all what you can do.
[C#m] We need a man with vision, so [F#] we put our trust in you.
[E] We hope sincerely that you [A] do the best that you can [E] do.
_ _ _ [C#m] _
[A] _ Oh, [E] for sure it won't be easy, and [F#m] we'll have to risk our lives.
[C#m] Some [E] will try to break us [F#] and cut us down to size.
[E] But just remember there can be [D] no consolation prize, [E] not in our eyes.
_ It's a [Bm] [A] long way [E] to go.
_ We [Bm] can't wait [A] one more [E] day.
_ We need [Bm] [A] someone to [Bm]
light [A] up the [E] way. _ _ _
_ We [Bm] may [A] run out of [E] time, but can [Bm] you [A] hear what we [E] say?
_ _ _ [Bm] _ [A] Because heaven is [Bm]
so [A] far [E] away. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C#m] _
[A] _ Although [E] time is getting short, there's still [A] some sand left in the glass.
[C#m] But now we have [G#m] a [E] living, [F#] breathing, rocket man to blast.
[E] It's time to take a step and nail [D] our colors to [A] the mast.
[E] _ _ _ _ [C#m] _
[A] _ No [E] more talk of great adventures when [A] it's movement that we need.
[C#m] It must be our intention that [F#] we never lose the lead.
[E] So count us down to zero, [D] and let's get up to speed.
[E] _ We're up and away.
It's a [A] long way to [E] go.
_ We [Bm] can't [A] wait one more [E] day.
_ We [A] need someone to [Bm] _
[A] light up the [E] way. _ _ _
_ We [Bm] may [F#m] run out [E] of time, _ so [Bm] believe [A] what we [E] say.
_ _ _ [Bm] _ [A] Because heaven is [Bm]
so [A] far [E] away. _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ [F#m] _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [A] _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ [Bm] _ _
_ [A] _ _ [E] _ And _ _
_ [A] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ [E] so now they cry for justice, [A] as if justice will be done.
[C#m] But the eye up in the sky was flying too [F#] close to the sun.
[E] The challenger has fallen and the [A] race has now been run.
_ It's _
[G] hard to believe it killed one of our crew.
_ [B] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _
