[Intro]
F#m Bm
D E
[Verse 1]
F#m
So you tell me man is an island
Bm
stuck between sanity and asylum
D
When the words you use wont work or fit
E
they just hang around and always miss
F#m
Retrace your steps again and again
Bm
your strength and virtue now coming to an end
D
This purgatory this constant battle
E
pack your bags wave goodbye to struggle
[Chorus]
F#m Bm
If the isolation destroys the worry if silence
D E
stops you saying sorry if the rain comes
F#m Bm
down and drowns the anxiety Im giving
D E
up Im sailing to Caldey
[Break]
F#m Bm
D E
[Verse 2]
F#m
Show me some patience give me some knowledge
Bm
show me what saves us give me some courage
D
If I could end with the grace of Leonard Cohen then
E
Caldey is the place I can hear it calling
F#m
so retrace your steps again and again your
Bm
strength and virtue now coming to an end
D
This purgatory this constant battle
E
pack your bags wave goodbye to struggle
[Chorus]
F#m Bm
If the isolation destroys the worry if silence
D E
stops you saying sorry if the rain comes
F#m Bm
down and drowns the anxiety Im giving
D E
up Im sailing to Caldey
[Solo]
F#m F A B
A# D# F#5
[Chorus]
F#m Bm
If the isolation
D E
if silence
F#m Bm
if the rain comes down
D E
Im giving up Im sailing to Caldey
