1. Day by day they drink and dream , old men staring out to sea,
              Am      D                 G
    from the island,    living on the island.

    And down in the harbour, it's a show,

    watching all the people as they come and go,
           Am      D                 G
    on the island,    living on the island;
        G
2. And up in the mountains, they're alright,

    tasting the first of the summer wine,
            Am     D                 G
    on the island,   living on the island.
             D                  C
    I wanna feel that sunshine in my heart,
                 G               D
    and let it blow my worries away,
              F                   C          G - D
    I wanna spend a night in the ocean with he..r.
         G      
3. That little lady lover, who's in love with me,

    prettiest little lady that I've ever seen,
           Am      D                 G
    on the island,    living on the island.

    And when I finally sail away,I know for sure I'll be back someday,
            Am       D                  Em       E
    on the island,      living on the island,
            Am       D                  G
    on the island,      living on the island.....  (repeat and fade)
