Intro: G C G G C G G C G I want to go back to the island, C D G where the shrimp boats tie up to the pilin'. Em Give me oysters and beer A7 D for dinner every day of the year and I'll feel fine. D7 I'll feel fine. Chorus: C D G 'Cause I want to be there, C D Em I want to go back down and lie beside the sea there. C G B7 Em With a tin cup for a chalice, fill it up with good red wine, A7 D G C G and I'm a' chewin', on a honey-suckle vine. 2. Yeah, now, the sun goes slidin' 'cross the water; Sailboats, they go searchin' for the breeze. Salt air it ain't thin, I can stick right to you skin, and make you feel fine. It makes you feel fine. (repeat chorus) 3. Yes, and now you heard my strange proposal; Get that pack gear up and let's move. I want to be there 'fore the day, tries to steal away and leave us behind. I've made up my mind. (repeat chorus and fade) --------------------------------- Chords diagrams: Em - |o22ooo| D7 - |xxo212| A7 - |xo2o2o| B7 - |x212o2| ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // Mike A.
