Tabbed by Albert Tan

Capo first fret

Intro: D, Dsus2, Dsus4, Dsus2

For the verses, whenever you see "D", just fiddle around with the
four D chords unless otherwise noted. To get the pattern, just
listen to the song.

D
The ship went down to lay on the ground 
D
At the bottom of the sea
D
I wound up on a deserted island
Bm                                 F#maj         F#7
When the ancient lights held their dances in the sky
A                                      E
Well, they nearly got me thinking that I could stay
G                           Gm
But I had to get out right away

D       Dsus2  G    Dsus2    A
Mmmmmm, mmmmm, ooh
D
Mm-hmm

D
But at last my shoes dropped back in the grooves
D
Of the city's slippery stairs
D
I stepped out on a deserted eyeland
Bm                                 F#maj        F#7
When the mirrors on the moon shine down onto my lagoon 
A                                E
They make me think a lot about a rental car
Bm
Filled with half a tank of gas
F#maj                           F#7
Or what it would take to get me past
A                                         E
All the welcome signs they planted on the edge of town
            G                          Gm
Man, I must surely be the luckiest guy around 
D
Spending all this time above the ground

***D, Dsus2, Dsus4 for this entire verse:***
And the part that's right before the end 
Goes over and over again:
"We all live on a deserted eyeland."
And the part that's right before the end 
Goes over and over again:
"We all live on a deserted eyeland." 

For acoustic playing purposes, just end on a D major barre chord (10th fret, relative to capo)

And that's all there is to it!
