(1)  C
              Em                      C            Em
What would I do if I couldn't get my hands on you?
           C    Em
I'd fade away
                 C            Em       D
For a couple of million days
   G      C                   D
I hope I find you an island
   G      C                  (1)  C
I hope I find you an island

              Em                      C             Em
What would I do if I couldn't gaze my eyes on you?
                 C   Em
If you fade to grey
          C             Em    D
Fooling places of play
   G      C                   D
I hope I find you an island
   G      C                  (1)  C
I hope I find you an island

               Em                         C          Em
What what you do if you couldn't keep my hand off you?
                  C    Em
Would you sneak away?
                       C             Em
But I fool you every step of the way
                 D
Yes I would and
   G      C                   D
I hope I find you an island
   G      C                   D
I hope I find you an island
   G      C                   D
I hope I find you an island
   G      C                  (1)  C
I hope I find you an island

             Em                      C            Em
What what I do if I couldn't put my hands on you?
               C    Em
I'd bend and shake
               C              Em
Crudely in some cryptic shape
D     G          C
I (I) I (I) I'd find you an island
D     G          C
I (I) I (I) I'd find you an island
D     G          C
I (I) I (I) I'd find you an island
