     F         Dm7
Now the day is gone and I sit alone and think of you girl

      Am7     Bb     F
What can I do without you in my life.

Dm     C#+         F/C         G7
I guess that our guessing game just had to end that way

   Bb      Dm7    Gm7     C7
    Bb C
The hardest one to lose of all the games we played

     F          Dm7
But the time has passed for living in a dream world

   Am7       Bb        F
And lying to myself, can't make that scene

  Dm        C#+     F/C          G7
Of wond'ring if you love me, or just making a fool of me

     Bb     Dm7    Gm7       C7
   F
Well I hope you understand, I just had to go back to the island,

F           Bb           F
And watch the sun go down, hear the sea roll in

             C7             F
But I'll be thinking of you and how it might have been

          Bb            F
Hear the nightbird cry and watch the sunset down

     C7                        F
Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island.

Dm       F/C    Bb         F
For all the sunny skies it's rainin' in my heart

Dm         Bb            F
I know down in my soul I'm really gonna miss you

    Dm       F/C Bb          F
But it had to end this way with all the games we played

     Bb      F/C     Bb    C7
   F
Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island

F           Bb           F
And watch the sun go down, hear the sea roll in

             C7             F
But I'll be thinking of you and how it might have been

 F         Bb            F
Hear the nightbird cry and watch the sunset down

     C7                        F
Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island

F           Bb           F
And watch the sun go down, hear the sea roll in.

      Dm7    C#+
