G
Far away where the soft winds blow
                 C   D#
Far away from it all
G
There is a place you go
       D         G
Where teardrops fall.

Far away in the stormy night
Far away and over the wall
You are there in the flickering light
Where teardrops fall.

Chorus:
    C
We banged the drum slowly
And played the fife lowly
      G
You know the song in my heart
        C
In the turning of twilight
In the shadows of moonlight
         Cm                      D
You can show me a new place to start.

I've torn my clothes and I've drained the cup
Strippin' away at it all
Thinking of you when the sun comes up
Where teardrops fall.

Chorus:
By rivers of blindness
In love and with kindness
We could hold up a toast if we meet
To the cuttin' of fences
To sharpen the senses
That linger in the fireball heat.

Roses are red violets are blue
And time is beginning to crawl
I just might have to come to see you
Where teardrops fall.
