[Verse]
E                          A     
Time goes so fast, and sometimes 
         E
so does life
E                        A       
I’d let you go but my darling you
       E
 fit right
              F#m
And I’m in love
F#m                            
I hope I cross your path another 
    E
time

E                          A 
I took a chance, and it left me 
        E
paralysed
E                          A     
A year without you was as lethal 
       E
as a knife
              F#m
And I’m terrified
F#m                                E
I’m back to being me without a bride


[Chorus]
F#m                   E A E
Isla, Isla wait for me
F#m                         E A E
Isla, please don’t forget me

[Verse]
E                          A     
When I returned I could barely 
         E
sleep at night
E                          A     
An empty bed and a tear drop in 
   E
my eye
            F#m
Later that day
F#m                               
The kerosene would meet the naked 
     E A E
flames

E                       A        
I tried my luck, and I took you 
         E
to one side
E                              A 
Confessed my love and how it 
             E
aLmost cost my life
              F#m
I’d give it all
F#m                               
For just another late night on the
      E A E
 grove



[Chorus]
F#m                    E  A E
Isla, Isla wait for me
    F#m                            
Oh IAbmsla, please don’t set me 
  E  A E
free
F#m                            E  
Oh Isla, my love, follow me
A E

         F#m                       
At your altar, I can't hold my 
 E
peace

[Verse]
               C#m                 
I heard the belEbmls, on the short 
                             E  A E
walk from church to your gardn
             F#m               
Above the marque, his contrails 
                E  A E
aligned for you
            C#m                    
He is watching, he follows in your 
           E  A E
magpie army
        F#m                     
Over railroads, I can’t help but 
                       E  A E
raise both of my feet

[Chorus]
F#m                 E  A E
Isla, Isla conquer me
    F#m                       E  A E
Oh Isla, you’re the one I see
F#m                              
Oh Isla, please grow old with me
E  A E

         F#m                       
At your altar, I sure hope its me
 E
