[B]
[Em]
Looking for [D] him one winter's [Em] night, the prestige he was [D] bound.
He slipped [Em] in [D] a robbery his pistol [Em] hadn't found.
[D] [Em] [Am] [G]
[Em] [D] [Em] [Am] [G]
[Em] He marched into [G] the station [Em] house, he waited [D] for the dawn.
[Em] They led [G] him to the dock, he [Bm] knew that [Em] he'd be wrong.
[C] He started to swap robbery, [D] he heard the bailiff say,
[C] He'd be without another, [D] for all [B] sight of all his [Em] freedom.
[G] Oh, but [D] he's so [Em] far [D] away, [G] [C] and still [D] can't [Em] [G] [D] find [Em] some who [D] sees.
The [G] reason [C] I call [D] him the [Em] thief.
[D] [Em] That [G] he won't cross him [Em] there, but he'll take [D] the last day.
[Em] But he had [G] been that faithful knight, [Bm] sleep with it [Em] must stay.
[C] He had to fight the tears of [D] rage, he started like a drum.
[C] For we are the wife of his best [G] friend, [D] and his [Bm] child of [E] freedom.
[G] Oh, but he's so [Em] far away, his [G] prayers he will read,
[Em] [G] All the days [Em] and nights, [G] [C] [D] [Em] [G] [Bm] [C]
[D] [C]
for all the rights that [D] he lost.
Oh, but he's so far away.

[Bm] [Em]
[D] [Em]
[G] [Bm] [Em] [C]
night within his crystal [G] cell, he'll sell [D] the rubles of the [C]
heirs that he [D] robbed.
[Bm] May he hold a place of [Em] freedom.
Oh, but [G] he's so [Em] far away, [G] his prayers he will [C] return [D] one day.
[G] As sure as the rivers reach the seas, back in his arms he's where [F#m] she'll be.
