[Verse]

C
He left Maine 'cause he needed a change
Am
And he was desperate to rearrange
F
priorities, And he thought the sea
G
Would be the best place to be

C
So he saved his money, sold his car
Am
And with his eye set on a Southern star
F
Got the courage to follow his heart
G
Set out for a brand new start


[Chorus]

F
He's an island boy
         C
Now he's an island boy
G                     F             C
Living his life where stress is the enemy
F
Now he's an island boy
                C
A stone's throw from St. Croix
G                      F        C
He's finally found his piece of serenity


[Verse]

C
Now he tends bar at the Old Mango
Am
And he sees tourists come and go
F
With their pressed pants and camera case
G
Too much sun burned on their face

C
Now he watches the snow on CNN
Am
With all of his dope-smokin' friends
F
Just look at the hell they must be in
G
Swears he won't go back again


[Chorus]

F
He's an island boy
         C
Now he's an island boy
G                     F             C
Living his life where stress is the enemy
F
Now he's an island boy
                C
A stone's throw from St. Croix
G                      F        C
He's finally found his piece of serenity


[Bridge]

D
You know the love of his life has always been Emily
F    C                G
She loves the man she sees


F
In her island boy
            C
Now he's an island boy
G                     F             C
Living his life where stress is the enemy
             F
Now he's an island boy
                C        F
A stone's throw from St. Croix
G                      F        C
He's finally found his piece of serenity


Island boy
A stone's throw from St. Croix
Island boy
Island boy
Island boy
