Intro:  C    D    F  G  C

                               D

I'm on an island, but I've got nowhere to swim

          F            G          C

Oh what a mood I am in, I'm on an island

                                D

I'm on an island, since my girl left me behind

              F                G          C

She said that I'm not her kind, I'm on an island

             Am                               Dm

But there is nowhere else on earth I'd rather be

           F                                   D  G

Than if my long-lost little girl was here with me-ee

          C                    D

I'm on an island, and I've got nowhere to run

            F           G             C

Because I'm the only one who's on the island



--Piano Solo—Same Chords--



  C                          D

I'm on an island , I'm on an island      (fade out)
