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

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

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

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

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

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