VERSE 1
********
[D]Islands, from the [Bm]first time we saw
We could [G]wait for this moment, like [D]rocks on the shore
We can never be [Bm]closer, somehow
For the [G]moment that lasts, is [D]this moment now
-------------------------------------------------------------------
BRIDGE
*******
When the [D]night's on [G]fire, will you [A]keep the candlelight [D]burning
Hold on to your [G]heart's [A]desire, (When the night's on fire)
When you [D]see one [G]bird into the [A]wind, another one's [D]turning
And the two can [G]fly much [A]higher
-------------------------------------------------------------------
CHORUS
*******
We are [D]islands but never too far\
Em \
We are islands \
A X2
And I need your light tonight /
And I [D]need your light tonight /[/]
-------------------------------------------------------------------
VERSE 2
********
[D]Islands, never [Bm]been to before
And we [G]climb so high to where the [D]wild birds soar
There's a new path that we [Bm]found just today
I was [G]lost in the forest and you [D]showed me the way
-------------------------------------------------------------------
BRIDGE
*******
When the [D]night's on [G]fire, will you [A]keep the candlelight [D]burning
Hold on to your [G]heart's [A]desire, (When the night's on fire)
When you [D]see one [G]bird into the [A]wind, another one's [D]turning
And the two can [G]fly much [A]higher
-------------------------------------------------------------------
CHORUS
*******
We are [D]islands but never too far\
Em \
We are islands \
A X5
And I need your light tonight /
And I [D]need your light tonight /[/]
