Far Side Of The World Cifras

Capo on 3
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
           C                  F            C         G
There are stories I’ve heard told, of an unfamiliar road
           Am                F          C   G
Where the evening sun hangs gold in the skyline
      C            F              C            G
In a quiet unknown town, there is solace to be found
        Am        F            C  G
In the unforsaken hours of the twilight
Am           F              C   G
   There’s a girl and I can see her
Am       F             C    G
    far away from this frontier
 
 
[Chorus]
 
             C                     G
‘Cos I wanna dance with a Highland girl
          Am                  F
Where the skies reach out for miles
        G                      C
I wanna feel the breeze of the Hebrides
       F         G     C
On the far side of the world
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
       C            F            C            G
On an evening in July ‘neath the red Lochaber sky
    Am                     F          C   G
She smiled and closed her eyes on my shoulder
          C                  F              C              G
Now I’m a million miles from home, from the girl I call my own
        Am            F            C    G
And I’m dreaming all alone just to hold her
Am      F             C   G
   As I look into the water,
Am          F                C  G
   I see her standing at the altar
 
 
[Chorus]
 
             C                     G
‘Cos I wanna dance with a Highland girl
          Am                  F
Where the skies reach out for miles
        G                      C
I wanna feel the breeze of the Hebrides
       F         G     C
On the far side of the world
             C                     G
‘Cos I wanna dance with a Highland girl
          Am                  F
Where the skies reach out for miles
        G                      C
I wanna feel the breeze of the Hebrides
       F         G     C
On the far side of the world
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
          C              F            C                G
Nail your colours to the mast, in the footsteps of the past
     Am                   F            C      G
And when you breathe your last, life’s returning
             C               F              C                 G
For when the sun sets on the years, all the miles and all the tears
   Am              F             C    G
A world away from here, it’s the morning
Am        F              C  G
   In my mind I see her smile,
Am           F                    C  G
   where the tide lines grace the isle
 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
             C                     G
‘Cos I wanna dance with a Highland girl
          Am                  F
Where the skies reach out for miles
        G                      C
I wanna feel the breeze of the Hebrides
       F         G     C
On the far side of the world
             C                     G
‘Cos I wanna dance with a Highland girl
          Am                  F
Where the skies reach out for miles
        G                      C
I wanna feel the breeze of the Hebrides
       F         G     C
On the far side of the world
 
 
[Outro]
             C                     G
‘Cos I wanna dance with a Highland girl
          Am                  F
Where the skies reach out for miles
        G                      C
I wanna feel the breeze of the Hebrides
       F         G     C
On the far side of the world
             C                     G
‘Cos I wanna dance with a Highland girl
          Am                  F
Where the skies reach out for miles
        G                      C
I wanna feel the breeze of the Hebrides
       F         G     C
On the far side of the world
