Intro: Em (G) D x 2


Em (G) D
Waiting for the bus stop
Em (G) D
Waiting for the concrete black top to settle down
Em (G) D A C
Long enough for me to get off and get a little ground

Em (G) D
I'm ready for the sea change
Em (G) D
Helpless felt this coming from a mile away
Em (G) D A C
And now you're looking at me babe, and how we'll separate if we can
G Bm C
Cause I still count on one hand the number of good men I know


D Em
It's like I'm standing on the edge with just a telephone wire
C
Trying to get to you first to say the world's on fire
D Em
Holding my breath until I know you're alright
C
Because the water will only rise

When will you realize
D Em
You must become an island
C G
You must become an island
D Em
You must become an island
C
And see for yourself that that's what I am


Em (G) D x 2


Em (G) D
You always dirty up the windows
Em
If you keep 'em at bay that way
(G) D Em
No one's gonna surprise you by getting too close
(G) D
Anybody but me though
A C
You've made exceptions to your rules
G Bm C
And now we're staring down truth neither one of us wants to know


D Em
It's like I'm standing on the edge with just a telephone wire
C
Trying to get to you first to say the world's on fire
D Em
Holding my breath until I know you're alright
C
Because the water will only rise

When will you realize
D Em
You must become an island
C G
You must become an island
D Em
You must become an island
C G D Em
And see for yourself the horizon is all we have
C G D Em C
And see for yourself the horizon is all we have


D Em
Holding my breath until I know you're alright
C
Because the water will only rise
