Intro: (D) (D) 

(D) Island I see you in the distance
I feel that your existence
Is not un(G5)like my own
(D) Island they say no man is like you
They say you stand alone
Sometimes I (G5) feel that way too
It's the (D) need for (Asus) love (A)
Heart and soul accom(A#dim7)paniment
(Bm) Seems to make me (E) different from (A) you (Asus) (A)

 Well I (Bm) tried to book passa(Em)ge, but you (A) have no ports
 And I (Bm) tried to sail in, but your (E) wind and waters
 (A) Tore my sails and broke all my oars

(D) Island I see you in the moonlight
Silhouettes of ships in the night
Just make me (G5) want that much more
(D) Island I see you in all of my dreams
Maybe someday I'll have the means to reach your (G5) distant shores
When the (D) need for (Asus) love (A)
Heart and soul accom(A#dim7)paniment
No (Bm) longer makes me (E) different from (A) you (Asus) (A)

  Well I (Bm) tried to build bridges (Em)
  But (A) they all fell down
  And I've (Bm) taken to the air on (E) wings of silver
  But I (A) always hit the ground

Solo: (D) (D) (D) (G5) (D) (D) (D) (G5) (D) (Asus) (A) 

 Well I (Bm) tried to book passa(Em)ge, but you (A) have no ports
 And I (Bm) tried to sail in, but your (E) wind and waters
 (A) Tore my sails and broke all my oars

(D) Island I see you in the moonlight
Silhouettes of ships in the night
Just make me (G5) want that much more
