Verse 1:
   G     C      G
Six years I've been in the city
     C          G
And every night I dream of the sea
     G  C       G
They say home  is where you find it
       D   C       G
But will this place  ever satisfy me

Verse 2:
   G       C     G
For I come from the salt water people
     C      G
We always lived by the sea
    G    C       G
Now I'm down here living in the city
    D  C       G
With my man  and our family

Chorus:
       Em
And my island home
     G
My island home
     D  C         G
My island home  is a waiting for me

Verse 3:
    Em     D    G
In the evening the dry wind blows
     G          C
From the hills and across the plains
 Em    D      G
I close my eyes and I'm standing
   G        C
In a boat on the sea again
    Em      D      G
And Im holding that long turtle spear
        G             C
And I’m feeling close now to where it must be
       D  C         G
And my island home  is a waiting for me
