Tom: C#m
C#m B E
Don't mess with my salt water high
Straight after you left me out to dry
C#m B
I'm calling it in, I'm calling you out
E
There's nothing to talk about
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m B
I die just a little inside
E
An ashtray on a motorbike
C#m B E
Don't hit me when my cards are down
When my cards are down
[Chorus]
A C#m E B
I live on an island surrounded by sharks
A C#m E B
And everything I do is keeping me and you oceans apart
A C#m
You know that I've tried my best now
E F#m
I've had enough of this mess now
A C#m E
I live on an island, I live on an island
B
An island in my heart
[Verse 2]
C#m B E
It's not unlike me to evaporate
When polite conversation heads my way
C#m B E
I'm phoning it in and zoning you out
There's nothing to talk about
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m B
I try not to act so cold
E
A trapdoor on a life-boat
C#m B E
Don't hit me when my cards are down
When my cards are down
[Chorus]
A C#m E B
I live on an island surrounded by sharks
A C#m E B
And everything I do is keeping me and you oceans apart
A C#m
You know that I've tried my best now
E F#m
I've had enough of this mess now
A C#m E
I live on an island, I live on an island
B
An island in my heart
[Bridge]
C#m
E F#m
Don't mess with my saltwater high
C#m
E F#m A C#m
Don't mess with my saltwater high
E B
Ooooh ooooh ooh
[Chorus]
A C#m E B
I live on an island surrounded by sharks
A C#m E B
And everything I do is keeping me and you oceans apart
A C#m
You know that I've tried my best now
E F#m
I've had enough of this mess now
A C#m E
I live on an island, I live on an island
B C#m
An island in my heart
