Verse 1:
G
Baby, when I met you there was peace unknown
D
I set out to get you with a fine tooth comb
   G
I was soft inside
  Em           D
There was something going on

Verse 2:
G                      D
You do something to me that I can't explain

Hold me closer and I feel no pain
   G
Every beat of my heart
 Em            D
We've got something going on


Pre-Chorus 1:
        Bm
Tender love is blind
   A         G
It requires a dedication
           D
All this love we feel

Needs no conversation
  Em        A D
We ride it together, ah-ha
    Em A          D
Making love with each other, ah-ha


Chorus:
D
Islands in the stream
       G
That is what we are
     Em
No one in between

How can we be wrong?
A     D
Sail away with me
   Bm
To another world
               G
And we rely on each other, ah-ha
     Em    A     D
From one lover to another, ah-ha


Verse 3:
G
I can't live without you if the love was gone
D
Everything is nothing, if you got no one
      G
And you did walk in the night
 Em            D
Slowly losing sight of the real thing


Verse 4:
G                      D
That won't happen to us and we got no doubt

Too deep in love and we got no way out
    G
And the message is clear
  Em             D
This could be the year for the real thing


Pre-Chorus 2:
         Bm
No more will you cry
   A
Baby, I will hurt you never
  G          D
We start and end as one

In love forever
    Em          D
We can ride it together, ah-ha
     Em    A       D
Making love with each other, ah-ha


Chorus:
D
Islands in the stream
       G
That is what we are
     Em
No one in between

How can we be wrong?
   D
Sail away with me
   Bm
To another world
     D          G
And we rely on each other, ah-ha
      Em   A     D
From one lover to another, ah-ha
     Em  A       D
From one lover to another, hmm-hmm
