Intro.:  |(A) |(A) |(D) |(D)

Now the (D)day is gone and I (Bm) sit alone and think of you, girl
What can I (F#m)do without you (G) (A) in my (D)life

Oh, (Bm)wonderin' if you (F#)love me or just (D) makin' a fool of (E)me
Well, I (G)hope you understand, I just (A)had to go back to the is-(D)-land ---

(Chorus)
Watch the sun go (G)down, (And watch the sun go down)
Hear the sea roll (D)in (Listen to the sea roll in)
I'll be thinkin' of (A)you, (Yes, and I'll be thinkin' of you)
And how it might have (D)been (Thinkin' how it have been)
Hear the night birds (G)cry, (Listen to the night birds cry)
Watch the sun set down (D) (Sit and watch the sun set down)
Well, I (A)hope you understand, I just had to go back to the is-(D)-land

Solo:  |(A) |(A) |(D) |(D) |

(Bm) Oh, the sunny (A)sky, (G) it's raining in my (D)heart
I (Bm)know, down in my (A) soul, I'm really gonna (D)miss you

But it (Bm)had to end this (A) way with (G)all the games we (D)played
Well, I (G)hope you understand, I just (A)had to go back to the is-(D)-land

Repeat Chorus

((G)Sit and watch the sun go down) Oh, yeah
((D)Listen to the sea roll in) Sea rolls in, sea rolls in

((A)Yes, and I'll be thinking of you) Always thinking of you baby, what about me
((D)Thinking how it might have been)

((G)Listen to the night birds cry, (D)sit and watch the sunset down
Well, I (A)hope you understand, I just had to go back to the (D)island) ----- to fade
