Jimmy Buffett - Back To The Island Chords

D
Island, I see you in the distance

I feel that your existence
       G
Is not unlike my own


D
Island, they say no man is like you

They say you stand alone
            G
Sometimes I feel that way too


                  A
It's the need for love
Em7
Heart and soul accompaniment
Bm               A              E
Seems to make me different from you


Bm                                    A
Well, I tried to book passage but you have no ports
      D                         E
And I tried to sail in but your wind and waters
A
Tore my sails and broke all my oars


D
Island, I see you in the moonlight

Silhouettes of ships in the night
             G
Just make me want that much more


D
Island, I see you in all of my dreams

Maybe someday I'll have the means
              G
To reach your distant shores


                  A
It's the need for love
Em7
Heart and soul accompaniment
Bm                 A              E
No longer makes me different from you


Bm                                      A
Well, I tried to build bridges but they all fell down
         D                   E
And I've taken to the air on wings of silver
A
But I always hit the ground


Interlude solo: D, G, D, G


Bm                                    A
Well, I tried to book passage but you have no ports
      D                         E
And I tried to sail in but your wind and waters
A
Tore my sails and broke all my oars


D
Island, I see you in the moonlight

Silhouettes of ships in the night
             G
Just make me want that much more
