FF *

FF    C majorC     FF   C majorC         FF
I wish I had a tiny island floating in the sea
      C majorC      FF       C majorC    FF
Palm trees sway, don't get in the way, it's a tropical ease
     C majorC          FF    C majorC          FF
And everywhere that I keep my silence, no sound returns to me
       C majorC      FF        C majorC          FF
Just endless waves at the end of our days, the sighing of the seas

  FF      C majorC  FF           C majorC     FF
But yesterday's gone, I don't know where I come from, hmmm
         C majorC
Wonder where I'm going

FF       C majorC       FF     C majorC           FF
The very last time that you saw me off I thought that it was understood
      C majorC     FF     C majorC  FF      C majorC    FF
That I'd be gone for a very long time, I might be gone for good
  FF    C majorC   FF      C majorC          FF
And all that time, all the time, I thought you would never fall
      C majorC   FF        C majorC            FF
It did not dawn across my mind the time that you lost it all

  FF      C majorC  FF           C majorC     FF
But yesterday's gone, I don't know where I come from, hmmm
           C majorC
Don t know where I'm going

FF C majorC break

FF      C majorC        FF   C majorC         FF
Sometimes I feel like a tiny island floating in the sea
      C majorC      FF       C majorC    FF
Palm trees sway, don't get in the way, it's a tropical ease
     C majorC      FF        C majorC          FF
And everywhere that I keep my silence, no sound returns to me
       C majorC      FF       C majorC          FF
Just endless waves at the end of our days, the sighing of the seas

  FF      C majorC  FF           C majorC     FF
But yesterday's gone, I don't know where I come from, hmmm
         C majorC
Wonder where I'm going
