[Intro]
Dm
[Verse]
Dm C F
If you'd say an oust(?) would be devised
I would be there
Dm Bb C
If it did, well, would you be surprised
then
[Chorus]
Well
F Cm
There would be no island
F Db Cm
There is no escape route through the earth
[Verse]
Dm C F
Greeting me all tacks(?) and no return,
I watch it burn
Dm Bb
sorting rocks from ashes
C
and I would build again
[Chorus]

I would sleep on my island with drunken trees
Db Eb F
My island to reach you again

Well then
Ab Bb
How may I find you
Ab
How have I lost you
Db Eb F
My island to reach you again
[Verse]
Dm C F
Stand to touts(?) and know how bridges fall
There comes a day
Dm Bb C
One can hear them break onehundred miles away
[Chorus]
and
F Cm
there will be no silence
F Db Cm
There will be as tension creeks through the air
[Verse]
Dm C F
say the words and save your world for me
I will be glad

My island to reach you again

you sold me (there would be no island)
