Words and music Bob Dylan.
 
Released on Oh Mercy (1989).
 
Tabbed by Jeff Kokosinski, with slight emendations by Eyolf Østrem.
D' in the last line of the verses is basically a D and a G played at the same time on different guitars. It can be emulated by playing a Dsus4 chord (xx0233).
G
 Far away where the soft winds blow
                 C    Eb
Far away from it all
G
 There is a place you go
G     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.
   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.
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.
