E                            E6       E 
Faraway places with strange-sounding names 
         F#m      B7 
Far away over the sea 
       E        E7M              A9     A7/9-   A    Am6 
Those far-away places with the strange-sound-ing names 
     E       B7       E     Edim B7 
Are calling, calling me 
E                     E6   E 
Goin' to China, or maybe Siam 
           F#m        B7 
I want to see for myself 
       E         E7/9+             A9    A7/9- A  Am6 
Those far-away places I've been reading   about 
      E           B7            E 
In a book that I took from the shelf

Bridge 

E7  A                       Bm5-/7    E 
I start getting restless whenever I hear 
C7  B7      Bm5-/7    E  E7 
The whistle  of  a train 
   A           B7        E 
I pray for the day I can get underway 
 B7  F#7                        F#m7    B7 
And look for those castles in Spain 
E                              E6      E 
They call me a dreamer  well, maybe I am 
                    F#m        B7 
But I know that I'm burning to see 
      E         E7M             A       A7M  A7    D9 
Those far-away places with the strange-sound-ing names 
  E       B7     G#7   G7 F#m7 F7/9+ E6 
Calling, calling me
