[C] [F]
[Bb] I was driving home through [Cm] Bakersfield early Sunday [Fm] morning,
[C] listening to gospel music [F] on the Cullen radio station.
[Bb] And the preacher said,
You know, [C] you always have the Lord by your [F] side.
[Bb] I was so pleased to be informed [C] of this
that I read [F] 20 written lies in [G] his honor.
[Bb] [F] Thank you, Jesus.
[C] Thank you, Lord.
[F]
[F] [Bb]
I had an arrangement to [C] meet a girl,
but [F] I was [C] kind of late.
[F] And I [Bb] thought by the time I got there,
[C] she'd be home with the nearest truck [F] driver she could find.
[Bb]
Much to my surprise,
[C] there she was,
[F] sitting in the corner,
a little [Bb] bleary.
[F] It was a girl
with [C] far away eyes.
[F]
So I tell you,
So [Bb] if you're down,
[C] and you [G] can't [Bb] harmonize,
[F] get a girl
with [C] far [D] away eyes.
[C] [F] [Bb] If you're downright
[C] disgusted,
[F] and life [A] ain't [Bb] worth the die,
[F] get a girl
with [C] far [F] away eyes.
Alright, boy.

Well, [Bb] the preacher kept running on saying
that [C] all I had to do was send $10
[F] to the church of the Sacred Bleeding Heart of Jesus
located somewhere in Los Angeles, California.
[Bb]
And next week,
[C] they say my prayer on the radio station.
[F]
And all my dreams have come true.
So I did.
[Bb]
And next week,
[C] I got [F] a prayer
to [Bb] the [F]
girl
with [C] far away [C] eyes.
[F]
Say it.
[Bb] If you're down,
[C] and you [F]
[G] can't [Bb] harmonize,
get a [F] girl
[C] with far [D] away eyes.
[F]
[C] If you're [Bb] downright
disgusted,
[F] and life ain't worth [Bb] the die,
[F] get a girl
[C] with far away [F] eyes.
One more time.
So lift [Bb] your glass,
[C] and we [F] all [F] sing [Bb] out the die,
[F] get a girl
[C] with far [Bb] away eyes.
[C] [F]
[N]
Thank you, Doug.
Thank you very much.
