Far away over [G] the sea, [D] [C] there's a river that's calling [F] to me.
[C] That river she runs all [G] around, [C] the place that I call my [F]
hometown.
There's a valley on the side of the [Gm] hill, [C] and flowers on an old [F] winter's hill.
[C] A [F]
familiar old picture [Gm] it seems, [C] and I'll go there tonight [F] in my dreams.
[Bb] Where it's green in the summer [F] and gold in the fall, [G] her eyes are as blue [C] as the sky I recall.
[C]
Far [F] away over [Gm] the sea, [C] there's a place at the table [F]
for me.
[C]
Where laughter and music [Gm]
abound, [C]
just waiting there in my [F]
hometown.
[Bb]
The river she freezes [F] when there's snow on the ground, [D] and the [G] children can slide to [C] the far side of town.

Far away, far away [Gm]
me, [C] hung up on a sweet [F] memory.
I'm lost and I wish I were [Gm]
found, in [C] the arms of my darling hometown.
[Bb] With the evening sun setting [F] on top of a hill, [G] and a mockingbird answering [C] the old chapel bell.
[F]
Far away over [Gm] the sea, [C]
my heart is longing [F] to be.
And I wish I could lay [Gm] myself down, [C] in the arms of my darling [F]
hometown.
