Capo 2
D
Sat there on the dock
A
With both my feet grazing the water
G
I could taste the island beaches on my tongue.
D
Splashes on the rocks
A
Got me imagining the palm trees
G
And the shorelines spotted up with coconuts.
C
Tidal waves and hurricanes
Am
Broken anchors, crashing planes
D A
Keep washing me up on your sand take my hand,
D A G
I wanna be stranded on this island with you, oo oo
D A G
I wanna be stranded on this island for two, oo oo
C
And I hope it's somewhere far
Am
Where only we are
D G
Stranded on your heart
D
Spend my free time thinking
A
How your tears aren't made for drinking
G
But I'm thirsty for what you're keeping inside.
D A
Losing track of time what seems like weeks
Is only hours
G
I can't wait until that moment when you're mine.
C
Even though we're not the same
Am
Different in every way
D
I can't but smile when you say
A
Take my hand
D A G
I wanna be stranded on this island with you, oo oo
D A G
I wanna be stranded on this island for two, oo oo
C
And I hope it's somewhere far
Am
Where only we are
D G
Stranded on your heart
Am
I won't call S.O.S
C
No message in a bottle
Am
No signaling with smoke
A
I'm trying to get home
Am
If I can't be with you
C
I'd rather be alone
D A G
I wanna be stranded on this island with you, oo oo
D A G
I wanna be stranded on this island for two, oo oo
C
And I hope it's somewhere far
Am
Where only we are
D G
Stranded on your heart
C
And I hope it's somewhere far
Am
Where only we are
D G
Stranded on your heart
