Verse 1: D We're all lookin' for a message here F#m A little wisdom on a souvenir Bm Another bottle with an S.O.S G Throw it in the water and pray for the best D There ain't a compass or a northern star
F#m That ever really tells us where we are Bm We're just a shore runnin' out of sand G And reachin' for a hand Chorus: D Every heart is an island F#m But no one's alone Bm Ship wrecked in a high wind G Tryin' to find our way home D And every tear is an ocean F#m We're all brothers in a storm Bm And we're tryin' to survive it G Lookin' for dry land D Every heart is an island Verse 2: D Silver linin's kinda hard to find F#m When the world stops at the horizon line Bm There ain't a harbor that you'll recognize G It's hard to make a wish in an empty sky D Boardwalks are just nails and wood F#m They're pretty in a picture when times are good Bm Cars and boats are just on loan G A house is just sticks and stones Chorus: D But every heart is an island F#m But no one's alone Bm Ship wrecked in a high wind G Tryin' to find our way home D And every tear is an ocean F#m We're all brothers in a storm Bm And we're tryin' to survive it G Lookin' for dry land D Every heart is an island Interlude: F#m. Bm. G. D F#m. Bm. G Chorus: D Every heart is an island F#m And no one's alone Bm Ship wrecked in a high wind G Tryin' to find our way home D And every tear is an ocean F#m We're all brothers in a storm Bm And we're tryin' to survive it G Lookin' for dry land D Every heart is an island Every heart is an island
