Far Away (GP-801)
Michael Mühlhauer
INTRO:
FAR AWAY THE RIVER FLOWS FOR EVER ON
FAR AWAY I’M ON THE RUN
OPENER:
4 BOYS PROMENADE GO ONCE
INSIDE THE RING
GET BACK HOME AND SWING YOUR GIRL
ONE TIME ROUND YOU GO
YOU JOIN HANDS AND CIRCLE LEFT
YOU GO
ALLEMANDE YOUR CORNER GIRL
AND WEAVE AROUND THE RING
FAR AWAY THE RIVER FLOWS FOREVER ON
THE SUN GOES DOWN AND THE WAVES ROLL
BACK THE TIDE [OR SWING
AND PROMANDE]
YESTERDAY IS DONE AND MY TIME HAS COME
FAR AWAY I´M ON THE RUN
FIGURE:
HEADS SQUARE THRU AND GO 4 HANDS ROUND YOU KNOW
AND WHEN YOU’RE THERE DO A DOSADO
ONE TIME AROUND YOU GO
YOU SWING THRU TWO BY TO,
LET THE BOYS RUN RIGHT
TAG THE LINE AND CLOVERLEAF AROUND THE RING TONIGHT
GIRLS SQUARE THRU AND GO 3 QUARTERS ROUND YOU KNOW
SWING YOUR BOY AND PROMENADE HIM HOME AND GO
THE GOOD TIME I´VE HAD
PLENTY IN THIS RACE THAT I HAVE RUN
I STAND ACROSS THE WATER FAR AWAY
I´M ON THE RUN
MIDDLE BREAK
HEADS FACE GRAND SQUARE
INSTRUMENTAL
ALLEMANDE LEFT AND WEAVE
INSTRUMENTAL
SWING AND PROMENADE HER HOME
INSTRUMENTAL
CLOSER:
HEADS FACE GRAND SQUARE
FAR AWAY THE RIVER FLOWS FOREVER ON
THE SUN GOES DOWN AND THE WAVES ROLL
BACK THE TIDE
YESTERDAY IS DONE AND MY TIME HAS COME
FAR AWAY I´M ON THE RUN
ALLEMANDE LEFT AND WEAVE
FAR AWAY THE RIVER FLOWS FOREVER ON
THE SUN GOES DOWN AND THE WAVES ROLL
BACK THE TIDE [OR SWING
AND PROMANDE]
YESTERDAY IS DONE AND MY TIME HAS COME
FAR AWAY I´M ON THE RUN
TAG:
SWING FAR AWAY I´M ON THE RUN

Far away the river flows forever on
The sun goes down and the waves roll
back the tide
Yesterday is done and my time has come
Far away I´m on the run
Inst
All is done that may be done, I stand
across the main
I´ll bet all my money
there´s no way back again
A chance as good as any, I´m
glad for what I´ve done
I stand across the water far away
I´m on the run
Far away the river flows forever on
The sun goes down and the waves roll
back the tide
Yesterday is done and my time has come
Far away I´m on the run
Far away the river flows forever on
The sun goes down and the waves roll
back the tide
Yesterday is done and my time has come
Far away I´m on the run
Inst
I rose up right and early and the
lights are dim and low
The breeze could tell you my tales
while all the rivers flow
The good time I´ve had plenty
in this race that I have run
I stand across the water far away
I´m on the run
The breath of air is howling catch the
waves as they roll out
Come sing a song of freedom, come sing
it clear and loud
A long long time to travel since this
journey had begun
I stand across the water far away
I´m on the run
Far away the river flows forever on
The sun goes down and the waves roll
back the tide
Yesterday is done and my time has come
Far away I´m on the run
Far away the river flows forever on
The sun goes down and the waves roll
back the tide
Yesterday is done and my time has come
Far away I´m on the run
