Great song, thanks chordify.net that helped a lot. Enjoy!



I was picked up and then dropped off in a
B F#m
culture counter-clockwise turned around
C#m
Dug a hole in Southern Carolina,
E B F#m
took me straight to China safe and sound
A E B F#m
Donated my map to the lost and found


C#m
While working for a common cause
E B F#m
I only got a kamikaze state of mind
C#m
This self defeating meeting of the minds
E B F#m
is eating what was once so hard to find
A E B F#m
But right then the clouds parted in the sky


A E B
The horizon took us all a little by surprise
Cº C#m
By surprise, watch the sky
And as the howling winds subdsided,
the locals ran out, all waving their hands and singing:


E A
Welcome to the island of the honest man
E A
Do what you want - there is no need to impress us
E A
Welcome to the island of the honest man
E A
We don't believe in what the big people tell us
B Cº
Wait here - stay here


I was picked up and then dropped off in a
B F#m
culture counter-clockwise turned around
C#m
Rolled a pair of dice in Paris
E B F#m
that got me to paradise all safe and sound.
A E B F#m
Stole my temper back from the lost and found


A
No longer needed to be seated on a
E B
sinking ship just waiting there to drown
Cº C#m
There to drown - jump off now
And as they lead us to their village,
a thousand voices all started to sing out loud:


E A
Welcome to the island of the honest man
E A
Do what you want - there is no need to impress us
E A
Welcome to the island of the honest man
E A
We don't believe in what the big people tell us
B Cº
Wait here - stay here


C#m E
From the sunrise up above to the sunset below, they all sing
C#m E
Welcome in, welcome back, well come on let's go
C#m E
And all the people on the island they already know why they sing
C#m E
Welcome in, welcome back, well come on let's go
C#m E
From the sunrise up above to the sunset below, they all sing
C#m E
Welcome in, welcome back, well come on let's go
C#m E
And all the people on the island they all want to show why they sing,
C#m
why they sing, why they sing, why they're singing


E A
Welcome to the island of the honest man
E A
Do what you want - there is no need to impress us
E A
Welcome to the island of the honest man
E A
We don't believe in what the big people tell us


E A
Welcome to the island of the honest man
E A
This is the island of the honest man
E A
Welcome to the island of the honest man
E A
This is the island of the honest man
B Cº
Wait here - stay here
