[Bbm]
[Bb] [Bbm]
Tonight I feel [Ab] like king of [Bb] the [Bbm] island, with all my [Ab] friends gathered here [Bbm] with me, dancing
[Ab] under star [Bb]-studded canopy, somewhere on [Ab] a beach in [Bbm] Belize.
I see [Ab] lights glowing from [Bbm] San Pedro, nocturnal [Ab] palms swaying in [Bbm] the breeze.
Minds and [Ab] spirits cry out from [Bbm] the mangroves, 2012 [Ab] doesn't worry [Bbm] me.
Cause [Db] tonight I'm [Gb] the king of [Ab] the island, with [Db] my six string as [Gb] I rule this patch [Ab] of
sand, singing [Bbm] songs of my life back [Ebm] on the mainland, [Gb] as I estimate my fortune full [F] of friends.
[Bbm] And I hold this island dear to [Ebm] my conscience,
[Gb] responsible for any fame [F] I've known.
[Bbm] A thousand miles from Texas, [Fm] living island time with ease, [F] somewhere on a beach in [Bbm] Belize.
[Bb] [Bbm]
By daylight I go diving incognito, greeted by a school of horse-eyed jack.
Like Neptune [Ab] I go gliding through [Bbm] my kingdom, a parade along [Ab] the reef welcomes [Bbm] me back.
From Sueño [Ab] down to Mr.
[Bbm] Joe's I've wandered, watched sunrise [Ab] from the shore of [Bbm] Athens Gate,
held port above the crocodile at Fido's, where I first [Ab] sang the songs that sealed [Bbm] my fate.
And [Db] tonight [Gb] I'm the king [Ab] of the island, [Db] as the native blood [Gb] was flowing through [Ab] my veins,
[Bbm] and I feel the distant tugging of [Ebm] my lifeline from before [Gb] that city world trapped me in [F] those chains.
[Bbm] I'm in tune with the rhythm [Ebm] of the ocean, [Gb] as it rearranges castles [F] in the tide, [Bbm] and
I shudder when I think, [Ebm] all this I could have missed, [Gb] if I ignored the voices [F] and the signs.
