Far Away piano leadsheet with chords

Level 5A100 BPMIngrid Michaelson
Getting the sheet readyPip is finding the first note.

I will live my life as a lobsterman's wife on an island in the blue bay.

He will take care of me;

he will smell like the sea and close to my heart he'll always stay.

I will bear three girls, all with strawberry curls:

Little Ella and

Nelly and Faye.

While I'm combing their hair,

I will catch his warm stare on our island in the blue bay.

Far away, far away, I want to go far away to a new life on a new shoreline where the water is blue and the people are new;

to another island,

in another life.

There's a boy next to me,

and he never will be anything but a boy at the bar.

And I think he's the tops;

he's where ev'rything stops.

How I love to love him from afar!

When he walks right past me,

then I finally see on this barstool I can't stay.

So I'm taking my frown to a far distant town on an island in the blue bay.

Far away,

I want to

go far away, away, away.

I, I want to go far away,

away, away.

I want to go far away,

away, away

where the water is blue and the people are new;

to another life, to another life,

to another shoreline

in another life.
