Island in the Sun

Song composer: Goombay Danceband

Lyrics author: Goombay Danceband

	E	A
	This is my island	in the sun

	B7	E
Where my	people have toiled since	time begun.

	E	F#m
	I may sail on	many a sea

	E	B7	E
Her	shores will always be	home to	me.

		E	A
		Oh, island	in the sun,

		B7	E
		Willed to me by my	father's hand

		E	A
		All my days I will	sing and praise

		B7	E
	Of your	forests, waters, your	shining sands.

	E	A
	As morning breaks the	heaven on high

	B7	E
I	lift my heavy	load to the sky.

	E	F#m
	Sun comes down with a	burning glow

	E	B7	E
	Mingles my sweat with the	earth be	low.

Oh, island in the sun...

	E	A
	I see woman on	bended knees

	B7	E
	Cutting cane for her	family.

	E	F#m
	I see man at the	water side

	E	B7	E
	Casting nets at the	surging	tide.

Oh, island in the sun...

	E	A
	I hope the day will	never come

	B7	E
That	I can't awake to the	sound of a drum,

	E	F#m
	Never let me miss	carnival

	E	B7	E
With caly	pso songs philo	sophi	cal.

Oh, island in the sun...
