Far Cry

Unknown

Key

Verse

I remember the face of an angel

The love that was faithful and true

I left that dear girl in the mountains

For a ramblin' life empty and blue

Verse

Sweet roses bloom where they're layin'

Wild flowers seed on the wind

That valley was closer to heaven

Than any place this poor fool has been

Chorus

It's a far cry from here to Virginia

But I'd crawl every inch of that ground

My teardrops fall like rain on the roof

For that Blue Ridge home where I'm bound

Verse

This highway's a ribbon of lonesome

Don't care where I lay my head down

For ten years it's died broken hearted

My sweet mountain darlin' is gone

Verse

I remember the face of an angel

Far Cry | Lonesome
