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
