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

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

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


Pre-Chorus 1:
        B minorBm
Tender love is blind
   A augmentedA         G+G
It requires a dedication
           D MajorD
All this love we feel

Needs no conversation
  E minorEm        A augmentedA D MajorD
We ride it together, ah-ha
    E minorEm A augmentedA          D MajorD
Making love with each other, ah-ha


Chorus:
D MajorD
Islands in the stream
       G+G
That is what we are
     E minorEm
No one in between

How can we be wrong?
A augmentedA     D MajorD
Sail away with me
   B minorBm
To another world
               G+G
And we rely on each other, ah-ha
     E minorEm    A augmentedA     D MajorD
From one lover to another, ah-ha

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


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

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


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

In love forever
    E minorEm          D MajorD
We can ride it together, ah-ha
     E minorEm    A augmentedA       D MajorD
Making love with each other, ah-ha


Chorus:

Islands in the stream
       G+G

No one in between

How can we be wrong?

Sail away with me
   B minorBm
To another world
     D MajorD          G+G
And we rely on each other, ah-ha
      E minorEm   A augmentedA     D MajorD
From one lover to another, ah-ha
     E minorEm  A augmentedA       D MajorD
From one lover to another, hmm-hmm
