My Island

[INTRO:] Dm  G    C

[VERSE 1:]
   Em       G                 
An ocean of streets surround my 
  C
island
        Dm              G         
And the waves of people wash 
      C
against my door
        F                 G    
And the tides of days and nights 
             C
they go so slowly
         Dm                   
And this bothers me for I know 
                 G
there's so much more


[CHORUS:]
N.C.      Dm             G
Some have islands in the sky
          C       ~      Am
Some have islands in the sea
       F               G
But my island's always here
       F              Dm
And my dream is to be free
      G               C
Sail away, boy, sail away
      Dm       G7     C
Sail away, boy, sail away

[VERSE 2:]
    Em           G                
How often I have thought and tried
          C
 to leave here
        Dm  G            C
Take my girl and beat my feet
    F                   G         
And board the good ship Chance and
         C
 make my voyage
    Dm                         
And sail all the way across the 
 G
street


[CHORUS:]
N.C.      Dm             G
Some have islands in the sky
          C       ~      Am
Some have islands in the sea
       F               G
But my island's always here
       F              Dm
And my dream is to be free
      G               C
Sail away, boy, sail away
      Dm       G7     C
Sail away, boy, sail away


[VERSE 3:]
    Em                G       
Sometimes I think and find that 
             C
conscience is
    Dm             G          C
The most important thing to a man
   F                      G       
To know you've stayed and tried 
          C
and died to live
     Dm                         
On a crowded beach of artificial 
 G
sand


[CHORUS:]
N.C.      Dm             G
Some have islands in the sky
          C       ~      Am
Some have islands in the sea
       F               G
But my island's always here
       F              Dm
And my dream is to be free
      G               C
Sail away, boy, sail away
      Dm       G7     C
Sail away, boy, sail away
      Dm       G7     C
Sail away, boy, sail away
      Dm       G7     C
Sail away, boy, sail away
