    Just a castaway, on an island lost at sea,
          D5        A5           E5        D5      A5 E5   
    another lonely day, with no one here but me.
        D5       A5         E5   D5           A5 E5
    More loneliness, than any man could bear,
                D5        A5     E5    D5        A5 E5
    rescue me before I fall into despair.

I hope that someone gets my,    I hope that someone gets my,

    I hope that someone gets my

    A year has passed since I wrote my note,
         D5              A5            E5              D5   A5   E5
    but I should have known this right from the start.
      D5      A5         E5    D5       A5 E5
    Only hope can keep me together,

    Walked out this morning, don't believe what I saw,
          D5        A5          E5             D5         A5     E5
    a hundred billion bottles, washed up on the shore.
         D5      A5         E5        D5 A5 E5
    Seems I'm not alone at being alone,
            D5        A5     E5                 D5       A5 E5
    a hundred billion castaways, looking for a home. + CHORUS
