[D] [Dm]
[E] [C]
[D]
[E] [C] For you dear I was [D] born,
[E] [C] for you I was [D] raised up, [F]
[C] for you I've lived [Dm] and for you I will
die, for [E] you I'm [C] dying now.
[D] [E]
[F] You were my mad little [G] lover,
[C] [F] in a world where everybody else is [G] sober.
[D] You are so far from me, [D]
[G] [G]
[D] so far from me, [Dm]
[G]
[Em] way across [F] your cold neurotic [G] sea.
[Em]
[C] So far from me.
[Dm]
[C]
I'd talk to you of [Dm] all manner of things,
[C] with a smile you [Dm] would reply.
[Am] [C] Then the sun would leave [Dm] your pretty face and you'd retreat from the front of [C] your eyes.
[Dm]
[F] I keep hearing that you're doing [G] your best, I [F] hope your heart's beating happy [G] in your infant prayers.
[Dm] So far from me,
[G]
[Dm] so far from me,
[G]
[C] far from me.
[Dm]
[C]
There is no knowledge, [Dm] but I know it.
[C]
There's nothing to learn from that [Dm] vacant voice,
[C] as it sails to me [Dm] across the line,
from the ridiculous [C] to the sublime.
[Dm]
[F] It's good to hear [G] you're doing so well, but really [F] can't you find somebody else [G] that you can bring a tear.
Did you [Dm] ever care for me?
[G]
Were you [Dm] ever there for me?
[G]
[C] So far from me,
[Dm]
[C] you told me you'd [Dm] stick by me,
[C] through the thick and through [Dm] the thin.
[C] Those were your very [Dm] words, my fair weather [C] friend.
[Dm]
[F] You, my brave [G] hearted lover, [F] were the first taste of trouble [G] when running back to mother.
[Dm] So far from me,
[G]
[Dm] so far from me,
[G]
[Em] suspended in your [F]
bleak and [G] fishless sea.
[C] Far from me.
