This is a first attempt so go easy on me.
I'm sure this is not the same key as the recorded version.
But I haven't been able to find this anywhere.

Far Away Eyes (M. Jagger/K. Richards)
GC
I was driving home early Sunday morning through Bakersfield
GD
Listening to gospel music on the colored radio station
GC
And the preacher said, "You know you always have the
GD
Lord by your side"
G
And I was so pleased to be informed of this that I ran
CGD
Twenty red lights in his honor Thank you Jesus, thank you lord
GCGDGC
I had an arrangement to meet a girl, and I was kind of late
GD
And I thought by the time I got there she'd be off
GC
She'd be off with the nearest truck driver she could find
GD
Much to my surprise, there she was sittin in the corner
GC
A little bleary, worse for wear and tear
GDG
Was a girl with far away eyes
-------------------------------------------------------------
CHORUS:
CD
So if you're down on your luck
GCGC
And you can't harmonize (2ND TIME: I KNOW YOU ALL SYMPATHIZE)
GDG
Find a girl with far away EYES
CD
And if you're downright disgusted
GC
And life ain't worth a dime
GDG
Get a girl with far away eyes
--------------------------------------------------------------------
GC
Well the preacher kept right on saying that all I had to do was send
GD
Ten dollars to the church of the sacred bleeding heart of Jesus
GC
Located somewhere in Los Angeles, California
GD
And next week they'd say my prayer on the radio
GC
And all my dreams would come true
GD
So I did, the next week, I got a prayer with a girl
GDG
Well, you know what kind of eyes she got
