Biografía:
La música de Islands es como un suave palpitar de épica contenida. Con un ideario estilístico en la línea del nuevo rock multiinstrumental (Guillemots), las bandas del Elephant 6 o clásicos del soft-pop como Penguin Cafe Orchestra y Paul Simon -de hecho nacieron como sarcástica banda homenaje al autor de ?Graceland?-, emergían en 2005 de las cenizas de los geniales The Unicorns. Como si rindieran tributo al mejor pop de hoy y siempre, Islands suenan más limpios y pulcros que su grupo madre

Intro I
A D Bm
You sure you want to spend your life in jail?
A D Bm
How you gonna spend your life in jail?
D/F# A
I was on my way
-----------------------------------------------
Verse I
D, Bm, G, A x2
D Bm G A
First break the skin, next open the wound.
D Bm G A
Now force your fingers in, and here's what you do:
D Bm G A
Climb inside the vein and have some heart
-----------------------------------------------
Intro II
A D Bm
You said "I want to spend my life in jail"
A D Bm
Why do you want to spend your life in jail?
D/F# A
"I've lost my way"
--------------------------------------------------
Verse II (same as Verse I)
"Pour concrete on me delicately, baby
so I can live my sedimental life sedentarily," all life
"I could just sit here for hours and watch TV," worthlessly
-----------------------------------------------------
Intro III (same as previous)
So that's why you choose to spend your life in jail?
Who would choose to spend their life in jail?
You've lost your way
------------------------------------------------------

forth between:
D and A
or
Guitar I

A---5-5-5-2--5-5-5-5-2--5-5-5-2--5-5-5-5-------------------------------5-|x?

------------------------------------------------------------------
Verse III(same as before)
D Bm G
"blow my money on my favorite company
A
they can blow holes in my ozone
D
so pour that propane on my clothes
Bm G
I like it when my skin glows
A
besides there's nothing to live for"
D Bm G A
unless you live a little more like you're going to die
--------------------------------------------------------
Interlude II/Bridge (upbeat)
D, A x 1
D
so what the fuck are you going to do?
they robbed your life from you
A (pause)
tell them you want to get it back
A
if you do, I've got your back
D
yes it's something worth defending
so throw caution to the wind
A(pause)
and other platitudes
A
that were written just for you
D
take a shit in their swimming pool
let them chase you if you do
A
finally something is happening to you
D
put an axe through the TV
blow up your radio,
A
though you can't see them now
you'll hear birds singing in your soul
D
sneak your way past the gates in a hard heart shape
A
if you're gonna be a shark you better learn to stay awake
---------------------------------------------------------
