Intro: D5 G5 A5 G5 x4

  D5     G5  A5         G5
I spent my life so patient
D5   G5   A5         G5
Waiting for the descent
    D5    G5  A5          G5
The gift to bring me water
    D5       G5    A5           G5
The drought that ends thereafter
  D5     G5  A5              G5
I tread my foot most lightly
D5    G5   A5             G5
Past the day left nightly
    D5   G5    A5        G5
And striving to be honest
    D5   G5    A5           G5
But hopeless without ballast

        B5        A5      G5         D5
For the light did sweep across the sea
E5           D5   G5      A5
You were the keeper of the key
        B5     A5     G5     D5
And the holder of my destiny
E5         D5          G5          A5
A thousand poems for the sight I've seen
  D5          E5       D5  G5
I've found myself the island

  D5    G5    A5          G5
A tree will bend and offer
    D5      G5  A5          G5
The branch to give the altar
   D5  G5    A5           G5
My promise will not falter
   D5   G5  A5          G5
To you my dearest lover

        B5        A5      G5         D5
For the light did sweep across the sea
E5           D5   G5      A5
You were the keeper of the key
        B5     A5     G5     D5
And the holder of my destiny
E5         D5          G5          A5
A thousand poems for the sight I've seen
  D5          E5       D5  G5
I've found myself the island


D5 C5 Bb5  D5 C5 G5  D5 C5 Bb5  D5 C5 G5  D5


    C5      Bb5    D5    
And now we lay
C5        G5    D5     
Down the day
   C5          Bb5    D5    
In this we're safe
   C5        G5
We know the way

Where we're going

       B5        A5      G5         D5
For the light did sweep across the sea
E5           D5   G5      A5
You were the keeper of the key
        B5     A5     G5     D5
And the holder of my destiny
E5         D5          G5          A5
A thousand poems for the sight I've seen
  D5          E5       D5  G5
I've found myself the island
  D5          E5       D5  G5
I've found myself the island
  D5          E5       D5  G5    D5
I've found myself the island
