Verse 1
So (G major)
I care to watch the coast
(E minor) The (A minor) air is always fresh and clear (D major)
(B minor) Where there's no familiar faces
(C major) I can recognize
A (A minor) place to go and to forget (D major)
I (G major) watch the seasons turn to years
(E minor) But (A minor) it still feels like yesterday (D major)
(B minor) When the city burns so (C major) bright
Brown enough to steal my sight
(A minor) Lead me blindly on my way (D major)
You can reach (G major) for the stars
When they fall, (D major) boy,
it breaks your heart
Know that fickle (C major) fashion fades so soon
Let's (B minor) build an island for (C major) me and you
Let's (B minor) build an island for
(C major) all the world to see (G major)
You and me, (D major) as I weep (C major) ,
these tears I cry, (D major)
I guess the day (G major) that fills my life (E minor)
Now I run (A minor) , but I can (D major) 't hide from
your love (G major) (D major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
Generations will replace
(E minor) All (A minor) these monuments in (D major) time
So (B minor) don't contaminate
the (C major) in nocence
and pure of mind
With (A minor) the ignorance of man (D major)
And (G major) if there's one thing that I've learnt (E minor)
(A minor) With my short time here on (D major) earth
(B minor) Not to criticise the (C major) little
things people do or say
(A minor) Just to recognise it's (D major) worth
You can reach (G major) for the stars
When they fall, (D major) boy, it breaks your heart
No, that fickle (C major) fashion fades so soon
Let's (B minor) build an island for (C major) me and you
Let's (B minor) build an island for (C major) all
the world to (A minor) see (G major)
You and (D major) me, as I weep (C major)
These tears I cry, (D major)
curse the day (G major) that fills my life (E minor)
Now I run (A minor) ,
but I can't hide (D major) from your love (G major)
See your (C major) face amongst the crowd (D major) s
Hear your voice (G major) in all these sound (E minor) s
Now I run (A minor) and I can't hide (D major)
from your love (G major)
From (D major) your love (G major) (D major) (G major)
(E minor) (G major)
You
