INTRO- A Em x3

Verse-1
        A
If the sun is to set
             Em
To leave us dark with regret
         A
I will work up the strength
              Em
To pull our earth back round again
              A
And if the ocean should freeze
              Em
Before we've sailed all the seas
        A
I will drop to my knees
        Em   
Until Poseidon agrees


chorus
C          G
We could build an island
D               C
You and I could swim beside
(C)             G 
Where we could ride the tides
Em                        
Until we fall asleep at night
[x2]
oohhhhh A Em

Verse-2
            A
If you get scared of the space
         Em
Between now and those days
             A
Then I will take you away
           Em
Somewhere fear has no place
           A
We'd make ashes of our clothes
            Em
And grow a garden out of those
               A
And watch the water as it rose
                Em
To bring the ocean to our toes

chorus
C          G
We could build an island
D               C
You and I could swim beside
(C)             G 
Where we could ride the tides
Em                        
Until we fall asleep at night
[x2]

BRIDGE
G
It's true
D                                      A
Distance just makes my heart grow for you
 D              Em              G
And everything I want for us to do
 D                               C
To build an island between me and you
 Em                             C
Build an island between me and you

ooohhhh G A C Em
