Island of the Honest Man  Hot Hot Heat

Great song, thanks chordify.net that helped a lot. Enjoy!
I was picked up and then dropped off in a
culture counter-clockwise turned around[B] [F#m]
Dug a [C#m]hole in Southern Carolina,
[E]took me straight to China safe and sound[B] [F#m]
[A]Donated my [E]map to the lost and found[B] [F#m]
[C#m]While working for a common cause
I only [E]got a kamikaze state of mind[B] [F#m]
This self [C#m]defeating meeting of the minds
is [E]eating what was once so hard to find[B] [F#m]
But [A]right then the clouds [E]parted in the sky[B] [F#m]
The [A]horizon took us [E]all a little by sur[B]prise
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]Welcome to the island of the [A]honest man
[E]Do what you want - there is no [A]need to impress us
[E]Welcome to the island of the [A]honest man
[E]We don't believe in what the [A]big people tell us
B Cº
Wait here - stay here
I was picked up and then dropped off in a
culture counter-clockwise turned around[B] [F#m]
Rolled a [C#m]pair of dice in Paris
that got [E]me to paradise all safe and sound.[B] [F#m]
[A]Stole my temper [E]back from the lost and found[B] [F#m]
No longer [A]needed to be seated on a
[E]sinking ship just waiting there to [B]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]Welcome to the island of the [A]honest man
[E]Do what you want - there is no [A]need to impress us
[E]Welcome to the island of the [A]honest man
[E]We don't believe in what the [A]big people tell us
B Cº
Wait here - stay here
[C#m]From the sunrise up above to the sunset below, [E]they all sing
[C#m]Welcome in, welcome back, well come on let's go[E]
[C#m]And all the people on the island they already know [E]why they sing
[C#m]Welcome in, welcome back, well come on let's go[E]
[C#m]From the sunrise up above to the sunset below, [E]they all sing
[C#m]Welcome in, welcome back, well come on let's go[E]
[C#m]And all the people on the island they all want to show [E]why they sing,
[C#m]why they sing, why they sing, why they're singing
[E]Welcome to the island of the [A]honest man
[E]Do what you want - there is no [A]need to impress us
[E]Welcome to the island of the [A]honest man
[E]We don't believe in what the [A]big people tell us
[E]Welcome to the island of the [A]honest man
[E]This is the island of the [A]honest man
[E]Welcome to the island of the [A]honest man
[E]This is the island of the [A]honest man
B Cº
Wait here - stay here
I was picked up and then dropped off in a
culture counter-clockwise turned around
