Tiny Island chords
Leo Kottke
F *
F C F C F
I wish I had a tiny island floating in the sea
C F C F
Palm trees sway, don't get in the way, it's a tropical ease
C F C F
And everywhere that I keep my silence, no sound returns to me
C F C F
Just endless waves at the end of our days, the sighing of the seas
F C F C F
But yesterday's gone, I don't know where I come from, hmmm
C
Wonder where I'm going
F C F C F
The very last time that you saw me off I thought that it was understood
C F C F C F
That I'd be gone for a very long time, I might be gone for good
F C F C F
And all that time, all the time, I thought you would never fall
C F C F
It did not dawn across my mind the time that you lost it all
F C F C F
But yesterday's gone, I don't know where I come from, hmmm
C
Don t know where I'm going
F C break
F C F C F
Sometimes I feel like a tiny island floating in the sea
C F C F
Palm trees sway, don't get in the way, it's a tropical ease
C F C F
And everywhere that I keep my silence, no sound returns to me
C F C F
Just endless waves at the end of our days, the sighing of the seas
F C F C F
But yesterday's gone, I don't know where I come from, hmmm
C
Wonder where I'm going
