[Intro]
E A B E A B E
A
The slam of the gamba set me free
B E
she's got all she ever needed
A
All I asked the judge to give to me
B E
was tied up down in the marina
C#m B A E
twenty-seven feet, white sails and polished fiberglass
C#m B A B
I christened her Island time and set sail for paradise
[Chorus]
A B E
She's got the house on the lake,
A B E
her own living made
E A E C#m
Swimming pool and the new corvette,
A B
savings account and alimoney checks
A B E
But I've got the ocean near St. Barth's
A B E
The Trade winds and the stars
A A C#m
When I raise my sails on island time
A B
twenty-seven feet of waterline
A B E
I've got the whole nine yards
A B E
A
7 am I bet she's in her car
B E
bumper to bumber in traffic
A
Just woke up and went up on deck
B A
feel back asleep in my hammock
C#m B
She's got all the toys and all the noise
A E
crammed into a city crowd
C#m B A B
While I'm down here on Island time all streched out on the bow
[Chorus]

She's got the house on the lake,
