Island John Power
[Intro]
[G] [Em] [Am] [D] [Bm] [C] [Am] [D]
[Verse 1]
[G]So I head towards the [Em]coast
[Am]It is always fresh and [D]clear
[Bm]Where thereā??s no familia[C]r faces I can recognise
[Am]A place to go and to for[D]get
[Verse 2]
[G]I watch the seasons turn to [Em]years
[Am]But it still feels like yester[D]day
[Bm]When the city burns so [C]bright, bright enough to steal my [Am]sight
Lead me blindly on my [D]way
[Cborus 1]
You can [G]reach for the stars
When they [D]fall, boy it breaks your heart
Know that [C]fickle fashion fades so soon
Letā??[Bm]s build an island fo[C]r me and you
Letā??[Bm]s build an island fo[C]r all the world t[G]o see
you and [D]me
as I [C]weep, these tears I [D]cry
I curse the [G]day that fills my [Em]life
Now I [Am]run, but I canā??[D]t hide
From your [G]love
[Verse 3]
[G]Generations will re[Em]place
[Am]All these monuments in [D]time
[Bm]So donā??t contaminate th[C]e innocence of pure of mind
[Am]With the ignorance of [D]man
[G]And if thereā??s one thing that Iā?[Em]?ve learned
[Am]With my short time here on [D]Earth
[Bm]Not to criticise the [C]little things people do or say
[Am]Just to recognise its [D]worth
[Cborus 2]
You can [G]reach for the stars
When they [D]fall, boy it breaks your heart
Know that [C]fickle fashion fades so soon
Letā??[Bm]s build an island fo[C]r me and you
Letā??[Bm]s build an island fo[C]r all the world t[G]o see
you and [D]me
as I [C]weep, these tears I [D]cry
I curse the [G]day that fills my [Em]life
Now I [Am]run, but I canā??[D]t hide
From your [G]love
[Outro]
See your [C]face amongst the [D]crowds
Hear your [G]voice in all these [Em]sounds
Now I [Am]run, but I canā??[D]t hide
From your [G]love
From your [G]love
