I Was An Island by Allison Weiss Tabbed By Titanium Drew Capo 5th Fret Simple song with all of four chords basically. The chord marked "G2" on here is just a pretty common transitional G Maj (half step down on low E string and A string opened, like this): G G2 -3- -3-| -3- -3-| -0- -0-| -0- -0-| -2- -0-| -3- -2-| The strumming is pretty easy to pick up from the song and there are only a couple strum patterns throughout. There is a nice little instrumental solo in the middle and she did an version on what I think was her first youtube video of this song. It is basically just a few using the chord shapes themselves. Look it up on youtube, it should be the first result if seach for this song. It is a nice addition to a easy, pretty song.
