[Bb]
[Bbm] See the sand and the white birds swooping low
Just see the sea and the dead fish floating by
See the grass as it's growing up my door
And hear my dog as he's crying for [Bbm] his fall
[Db]
This is my home, my evil [Bbm] island home
[Db]
[Bb] See the stoat and the shaft build a razor bill
You know they're pecking away at my crumbling windowsill
And the ice on the mountain range below
Is starting to melt and will soon be washed with snow
This [Db] is my home, my evil island [Bb] home
[Db]
[Bb]
I want [Bbm] to fly, but they've taken my wings away
I want to run, but I know I have to [Bb] stay
I may coax the bee who wanders on the [Bb] shore
To lend me his back so I can ride away once more
[Bbm]
[Bbm] See the sand and the white birds swooping low
Just see the sea and the dead fish floating by
See the grass as it's growing up my door
And hear my dog as he's crying for [Bbm] his fall
[Db]
This is my home, my evil [Bbm] island home
[Db]
[Bb] See the stoat and the shaft build a razor bill
You know they're pecking away at my crumbling windowsill
And the ice on the mountain range below
Is starting to melt and will soon be washed with snow
This [Db] is my home, my evil island [Bb] home
[Db]
[Bb]
I want [Bbm] to fly, but they've taken my wings away
I want to run, but I know I have to [Bb] stay
I may coax the bee who wanders on the [Bb] shore
To lend me his back so I can ride away once more
[Bbm]
