Far Side Of The World Chords by Jimmy Buffett

[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _
[G] _ [D] _ [G] Hey, [D] that's the way it happens [A] on the far side [D] of the world
_ _ _ Well, it's a long way from the far side of the world into this little Airstream trailer
That's how it happens when you're out there chasing stories and you got to go somewhere and [N] record them
All right from the B before the last chorus
_ _ _ Would _ _ _ _ you like to sing her in from the top _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ [G] _
_ _ [C] _ [D] _ _ [Em] _ _ _

_ _ [A] _ [E] _ [F#] I
For the [D#] love of _
[F#] [G#m] This [E] _ [C#] reminds [A] [E] me you have show orchestra
_ [F#] [E] Well, _ [C#] _ [F#] _ _
[G] _ [F#] _ [D#] _ [Em] _ [D#] _ [F#] _ [G#] _ [A] _
[A#] _ [B] I think it's exactly where it [E] should be

_ _ _ _ I
Ramadan is over [G] the new moon shown her face
[A] I'm halfway around the planet [G] in [D] a most unlikely place
Following my song [G] line past bamboo shacks and shops
[A] Behind a kidney packed like [G] sardines with bananas [D] piled on top.
_ I
Ran away from [G] politics.
It's too bizarre at home
[A] We have blue tuned in the blue.
[G] Maybe [A] I'm [D] wrong
Waking by a [G] stewardess with Spain somewhere below [A] on the threshold of adventure
[G] God I do [A] love this [D] job.
So
So while [G] I make [D] my move [A] on the big [D] board game
[G] Then down that [D] Spanish highway [A] some [D] things remain the same
[G] [D] girls need boys [A] and [Bm] boys tease girls
[G] I'm hitting that [D] this morning [A] or the far [G] side of the world.
[D] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
[D] _ [A] _ [D] Oh
I believe in song [G] lines
Obvious and not [A] I've written them like camels to [G] some most [A] to [D] your spot
They run across the [G] ocean through mountains and saloon
[A] the night after
Desert [G] where I [A] sit [D] atop this
I _ was destined for this Spanish point [G] though.
It's so far from the sea.
[A] I've lived in
pages [G] of [A] subject [D] to fiery
From Paris to Tunisia
[G] Yes a blanket to that car.
[A] I was riding along before I [G] flew through [A] the wind [D] and sand and snow
_ _ [G] _ [D] _ Caravan
[A] _
[D] And [G] _ Timba [D] to [A] a [D] chillin
_ [G] Sleeping [D] bag and battle [A] flag coils [Bm] and
_ [A] That's [G] the way [D] you sell to [A] our [D] battle _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [G] _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[G] _ [D] _ _ _ Sunset frame by [G] lightning bolt burns a lasting memory [A] and a string of tiny twinkling [G] lights
Don't [D] sausage [G] tree [D] while the embers from the log fire
[G] They flicker fly and twirl [A] in drift off towards the cosmos [Em] from [A] the far [D] side
_ That's Christmas and my birthday [G] and so to that extent
[A] My side not [Em] the wise [G] men are [A] circling [D] my tent
I teach them how to play [G] guitar.
They show me how to dance.
[A] We have rum from the
Caribbean [G] and [A] Burgundy [D] from France
_ New Year's evenings and [G] the bar with Babu and his boys
[A] High up on the rooftop.
You can relish [D] all the noise
They're dancing on
Tables [G] people bouncing like a bell [A] to a war is ushered [G] in with [A] air raid [D] horns and bells
_ [G] _ _ [D] _
_ [A] _ [D] _ _ _ [G] _ [D] _ _
[A] _ [D] _ _ _ [G] No, [D] brothers and sleeping [A] bags are called [Bm] and
_ [G] That's the way [D] it happens
[A] On our side
[D] _ Back _ _
_ _ [G] _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ at home.
It's [G] afternoon
6,000 miles away
[A] It will still be there when [G] I get through [A] attending [D] the soiree
Their jobs and chores and questions [G] and plates.
I'd need to work
But [A] tonight I'll take my chances [G] on [A] far [D] side of the world
[G] Yes, that's the [D] way it happened
