The Island by J.P. Cormier
The Island
Capo: 3rd fret
INTRO: D C G D C G D C G D
A D
The heart of a young man is ruled by desire
A D
It only climbs mountains if the next one is higher
G C G A
Over the hillside and down through the glen
D A D C-G-D
I have followed its calling back home again
A D
Mile after mile I have searched but in vain
A D
For the place where my dreams won't be drowned by the rain
G C G A
Over and over the lesson I've learned
D A D C-G-D
Is the place I should be is where the home fires burn
CHORUS:
A Em
Where the mountains are weeping and calling my name
G D A
And the sea sings a song of my father's who came
D A D
To the Island, the Island my heart will remain
INSTRUMENTAL:
A D
Music and magic and friends by the fire
A D
A memory of a place where the spirits are higher
G C G A
Last looks at beauty and tears of goodbye
D A D C-G-D
Live in my soul and burn in my eyes
CHORUS:
A Em
For the mountains are weeping and calling my name
G D A
And the sea sings a song of my father's who came
D A D
To the Island, the Island my heart will remain
INSTRUMENTAL:
A D
The road's turning back now as time turns a page
A D
I no longer feel the shoes of a younger man's age
G C G A
She let me go with her blessings back then
D A D C-G-D
But I know she'll be glad to have me back home again
CHORUS:
A Em
Where the mountains are weeping and calling my name
G D A
And the sea sings a song of my father's who came
D A D C-G-D
To the Island, the Island my heart will remain
CHORUS:
A Em
Where the mountains are weeping and calling my name
G D A
And the sea sings a song of my father's who came
D A D C-G-D
To the Island, the Island my heart will remain
D A D C-G-D C-G-D C-G-D
On the Island, the Island my heart will remain
