VERSE 1
********
D MajorD 
B minorBm
Islands, from the first time we saw
G+G D MajorD
We could wait for this moment, like rocks on the shore
B minorBm
We can never be closer, somehow
G+G D MajorD
For the moment that lasts, is this moment now
-------------------------------------------------------------------
BRIDGE
*******
D MajorD G+G 
A augmentedA D MajorD
When the night`s on fire, will you keep the candlelight burning
G+G A augmentedA
Hold on to your heart`s desire, (When the night`s on fire)
D MajorD G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
When you see one bird into the wind, another one`s turning
G+G A augmentedA
And the two can fly much higher
-------------------------------------------------------------------
CHORUS
*******
D MajorD
We are islands but never too far\
E minorEm \
We are islands \
A augmentedA X2
And I need your light tonight /
D MajorD /
And I need your light tonight /
-------------------------------------------------------------------
VERSE 2
********
D MajorD B minorBm
Islands, never been to before
G+G D MajorD
And we climb so high to where the wild birds soar
B minorBm
There`s a new path that we found just today
G+G D MajorD
I was lost in the forest and you showed me the way
-------------------------------------------------------------------
BRIDGE
*******

When the night`s on fire, will you keep the candlelight burning

Hold on to your heart`s desire, (When the night`s on fire)
D MajorD G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
When you see one bird into the wind, another one`s turning
G+G A augmentedA
And the two can fly much higher
