[Verse 1]
G C G
Six years I've been in the city
C G
And every night I dream of the sea
G C G
They say home is where you find it
D C G
But will this place ever satisfy me
[Verse 2]
G C G
For I come from the salt water people
C G
We always lived by the sea
G C G
Now I'm down here living in the city
D C G
With my man and our family
[Chorus]
Em
And my island home

My island home
D C G
My island home is a waiting for me
[Verse 3]
Em D G
In the evening the dry wind blows
G C
From the hills and across the plains
Em D G
I close my eyes and I'm standing
G C
In a boat on the sea again
Em D G
And Im holding that long turtle spear
G C
And I’m feeling close now to where it must be
D C G
And my island home is a waiting for me
[Instrumental]
