_ _ Tales of the Islander, tales of you and [D] me
Floating [A] on our raft [F#m] down to Mother Mississippi
_ [A] Caught myself a fever, took a hospital stay
Tied some sheets together, crawled down and [D] was on my way
[E] I [A] was on my way _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ Let's take to the water and let our bodies [D] roam free
No more [A] taste or smell, no ear nor see
[E] _ Then greet the morning star as we dance [D] along the beach
[A] Embrace this mighty sunrise as the cranes [D] fly to meet it
[F#] _ [A] Cranes rise to meet it
They call to me
_ They call, _ they call to me, they call so [F#m] deep
I gotta feel it all, no time for sleep, no time at all
When they call
_ They call to me, they call so deep
I gotta feel it all, no time for sleep, no time at all

_ _ _ We found a paradise and it's on Garden Gate
Had him in a hat on a rowboat, [D] phosphorescence in the way
[A] The squall has passed and we're tied to the [D] decay
But one [A] day may the hurricanes come and [D] carry us away
[F#] Carry [A] us away
Waves call to me
_ They call, _ they call to me, they call so [F#m] deep
I gotta [A] feel it all, no [D] time for sleep, no [A] time at all
When they call
_ They call to me, they call so deep
I gotta feel it all, no time for [D] sleep, no [A] time at all
_ [D] _
Give me a sunset of [A] lilac gold and green [A] gray [D] skies
I'll give you [A] spirals and zigzag [D] lines
It's a magic hour of a halcyon day
[D]
And all mankind [E] stands there barely _ awake
[D] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ A full moon rising on all of nature's powers
Stars just observers of [F#m] seniors and _ [E] moonflowers
We [Am] could bathe in the nella of a gulf stream, prowl like [A] cats in the night
Then transform like moths in a crystal little light
_ Crystal little light _
Moths call to me
They call, _ they call to me, they call so deep
[D] I gotta feel it all, no time for sleep, no time at all
[A] When they call
They call to me, they call so deep
[D] I gotta feel it all, no time for sleep, [A] no time at all
_ When they call _ _ _ _ _ _ _
