[Eb] This is my island [Ab] in the sun [Bb] where my people have dwelt [Eb] since time begun.
[C] I may [Ab] sail on many seas, [Bb] but these shores will [Eb] always be home for me.
Oh [Ab] island in the sun, [Bb] will you be to me by [Eb] my father's hand?
[Cm] All my days [Ab] I'll be singing praise [Bbm] of your forest waters [Eb] and shining sun.
As morning [Ab] breaks the heaven and I [Bb] [Eb] look to the sky,
[C] sun comes down [Ab] with a burning glow, [Bb] mingles my sweat [Eb] with the earth below.
Oh [Ab] island in the sun, [Bb] will you be to me by [Eb] my father's hand?
[Cm] All my days [Ab] I'll be singing praise [Bb] of your forest waters [Eb] and shining sun.

I see women [Ab] on bended knees, [Bb] touching cane [Eb] for her family.
[C] I see man [Ab] at the water's side, [Bb] casting nets [Eb] at the surging tide.
Oh [Ab] island in the sun, [Bb] will you be to me by [Eb] my father's hand?
[Cm] All my days [Ab] I'll be singing praise of your forest waters [Eb] and shining sun.

I pray the [Ab] day would never come [Bb] when I can't awake [Eb] to the sound of drums.
[C] Never let me [Ab] miss carnival [Bb] with Calypso songs [Eb] philosophical.
Oh [Ab] island in the sun, [Bb] will you be to me by [Eb] my father's hand?
