"Far Away" by Pete Jung is an old favorite here in New England. Here's a bit more information:

"Standard tuning. AA'BB. Composed in 1985 by Pete Jung (Kingston, N.Y.), who said: "I wrote this while playing the mandolin, on the way back home from a Brattleboro (VT) Dawn Dance, at about 7 A.M. I wrote it for a particular woman who has an enchanting but elusive quality—that was what I was trying to convey." The melody has become quite popular and pops up from time to time at sessions.
