WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Nova Heather - Island Tabs | Ver. 1
_____________
/Heather Nova/ This is one of my favourite Heather Nova songs though
/ Island / it's at least ten years old. It's a little weird to
/ Oyster / play, as the guitar is a half step out of rate...
/____________/ But anyways, here you go!

-Intro (Main-Riff 4x)
-1st Verse (Main-Riff 12x):
There are parts of me he'll never know
My wild horses and my river beds
And in my throat voices he'll never hear
He pulls at me like a cherry tree
And I can still move, but I don't speak about it
Pretend I'm crazy, pretend I'm dead
He's too scared to hit me now, he'll bring flowers instead
-1st Chorus (Short Chorus-Riff 1x, Main-Riff 2x):
I need an island, somewhere to sink a stone
I need an island, somewhere to bury you, somewhere to go
-2nd Verse (Main-Riff 4x):
And the dogwoods shimmer in the October sun
"Oh, sweet thing" he sings to me
"You're the only one"
-2nd Chorus (Long Chorus-Part 1x):
I need an island, somewhere to sink a stone
I need an island, somewhere to bury you, somewhere
I need an island, somewhere to sink a stone
I need an island, somewhere to bury you, somewhere to go
-Interlude (Interlude 1x...)
-3rd Verse (Heavy Part 16x):
And I don't know why, I can't tell my sister
He spat in my face again, and I don't wanna die here
You know that dream when your feet won't move, move
You wanna come but your body won't let you
He steals it from me
He steals it from me
It shines, shines like sweat, like jewels
Like something that has died too soon
He f**ks with the beauty
A kiss, a kick, a kiss, a kick, a kiss, kiss, kick
He steals it from me
It's outta my hands again
-3rd Chorus (Short Chorus-Riff 4x):
I need an island, somewhere to sink a stone
I need an island, somewhere to bury you
Somewhere to go, to go...
-Outro (Main-Riff fading out 'till end)
...That's the end of it, hope you enjoyed this amazing song!
