Back to the Island  Jimmy Buffett

Island, I see yo[D]u in the distance
I feel that your existence
Is not [G]unlike my own
[D]Island, they say no man is like you
They say you stand alone
Sometimes I [G]feel that way too
It's the need for [A]love
[Em7]Heart and soul accompaniment
[Bm]Seems to make me [A]different from [E]you
[Bm]Well, I tried to book passage but you [A]have no ports
And I [D]tried to sail in but your [E]wind and waters
[A]Tore my sails and broke all my oars
[D]Island, I see you in the moonlight
Silhouettes of ships in the night
Just make me [G]want that much more
[D]Island, I see you in all of my dreams
Maybe someday I'll have the means
To reach your [G]distant shores
It's the need for [A]love
[Em7]Heart and soul accompaniment
[Bm]No longer makes me [A]different from [E]you
[Bm]Well, I tried to build bridges but they [A]all fell down
And I've [D]taken to the air on [E]wings of silver
[A]But I always hit the ground
Interlude solo: D, G, D, G
[Bm]Well, I tried to book passage but you [A]have no ports
And I [D]tried to sail in but your [E]wind and waters
[A]Tore my sails and broke all my oars
[D]Island, I see you in the moonlight
Silhouettes of ships in the night
Just make me [G]want that much more
