Island

[D]    [A]    [D]   [A]       [D]   [A]   [D]   [A]

 They say the sk[D]ies of Leb[A]anon are bu[D]rning   [A]
 Those mighty ce[D]dars ble[A]eding in the h[D]eat   [A]
They're showing pict[D]ures [A]on the tele-vi[D]sion   [A]
            [D]        [A]           Drun
Women and children dying in the street
[G]Now we're still at it in our own place
                  [D]         [A]                  Drun
Still trying to reach the future through the past,   Still tryin' to
  [G]                      [G]  (TACET)
Carve tomorrow from a tombstone
But h[A]ey don't listen to me,    T[D]his wasn't meant to be no s[G]ad song
We've heard too m[A]uch of that be[D]fore[A]    [D]
Right now I only want to [A]be here with you 'til the mo[G]rning d[A]ew comes fal[D]ling

I wanna take you to the is[G]land and trace your foo[A]tprints in the s[D]and[A]   [D]
And in the evening when the s[A]un goes down
We'll make l[G]ove to the so[A]und of the oc[D]ean     [D]

They're raising ba[D]ttles o[A]ver by the mar[D]kets  [A]
Whitewashing slo[D]gans [A]on the shipyard w[D]all   [A]
Witchdoctors pra[D]ying f[A]or a mighty sho[D]wdown [A]
           [D]    [A]             [D] run
The way a holy flag is gonna fall
[G]                                               [D]        [A]          [D] run
Up here we sacrifice our children,To feed the,Worn out dreams of yesterday
                 [G]                        [G] (TACET)
And teach them "Dying will lead us into Glory"
But hey don't lis[A]ten to me,   T[D]his wasn't  meant to be a s[G]ad song
We've heard too m[A]uch of that be[D]fore[A]    [D]
Ri[D]ght now I only wanna [A]be here with you 'til the mo[G]rning d[A]ew comes fal[D]ling

CHORUS....I wanna take you to the island etc

I know us pl[D]ain folks don't s[A]ee all  the st[D]ory  [A]
I know  pe[D]ace and lo[A]ve's just copping o[D]ut [A]
I guess these yo[D]ung boys dy[A]ing in the dit[D]ches   [A]
                 [D]      [A]          Drun
That's just what being free is all about
How this tw[G]isted wreckage down on M[G]ain Street
               [D]      [A]          Drun
Will bring us all together in the end
As we go mar[G]ching down the road to fr[G]eedom...  [G]      Fr[G]eedom
