Verse:
C majorC
He left Maine 'cause he needed a change
A minorAm
And he was desperate to rearrange
FF
priorities, And he thought the sea
G+G
Would be the best place to be
C majorC
So he saved his money, sold his car
A minorAm
And with his eye set on a Southern star
FF
Got the courage to follow his heart
G+G
Set out for a brand new start
Chorus:
FF
He's an island boy
C majorC
Now he's an island boy
G+G FF C majorC
Living his life where stress is the enemy
FF
Now he's an island boy
C majorC
A augmentedA stone's throw from St. Croix
G+G FF C majorC
He's finally found his piece of serenity
Verse:
C majorC
Now he tends bar at the Old Mango
A minorAm
And he sees tourists come and go
FF
With their pressed pants and camera case
G+G
Too much sun burned on their face
C majorC
Now he watches the snow on CNN
A minorAm
With all of his dope-smokin' friends
FF
Just look at the hell they must be in
G+G
Swears he won't go back again
Chorus:
FF
He's an island boy
C majorC
Now he's an island boy

Living his life where stress is the enemy

He's finally found his piece of serenity
