Seven Island Suite

A  Em  A  Em  A  Em  A


[Verse 1]
  Em    A       Em    A
 Seven islands to the high side
  Em    A     Em       A
 Of the bay, 'cross the bay
  Em    A      Em          A
 To the sunset through the blue light
  Em  A      Em    A     Em A
 Of a fiery autumn haze
 Em      A       Em     A
 We went walking on the high side
 Em     A        Em     A
 Of the bay on a chilly morn
 Em     A       Em         A
 And we saw how leaves had fallen
 Em     A          Em        A
 On the beds where trees are born
 C               A                   C           D    A
 Any man in his right mind could not fail to be made aware
C                          A
 Any woman with a gift of wisdom
          C        D       A     Asus4/2 A
Would not seek her answers there


[Verse 2]
Em     A      Em      A        Em     A             Em        A
Seven islands to the high side of the bay if you're looking west
Em      A     Em      A        Em     A     Em    A
To the sunset you can see it, all in fiery autumn dress
C                      A                  C          D       A
  Anytime would be the right time to come up to your bed of boughs
C                         A               C           D    A
  Anybody with a wish to wander could not fail but to be aroused

Em                 A     Em                        A           Em
Living high in the city,    guess you think it's a pretty good way
           A         Em                          A          Em
You get to learn but when you get burned you got nothing to say
              A        Em                     A             Em
You seem to think because you got chicken to go you're in luck
 C                D                G               Am
Fortune will not find you in your mansion or your truck
 C               D                    G                     A
 Brothers will desert you when you're down and shit out of luck

[Verse 4]
 Em                 A        Em                        A      Em
Look around at the morning;    guess you're doing the best you can
            A         Em                 A          Em
Surely you know that when you go nobody gives you a hand
              A         Em                         A        Em
Think of the air you're breathing in, think of the time you waste
             A         Em                      A            Em
Think of the right and wrong and consider the frown on your face


[Chorus]
C                                   A                C        D       A
  It's time you tried living on the high side of the bay, you need a rest
C                            A              C        D      A
  Any woman or a man with a wish to fade away, could be so blessed
 C                D                G                 Am
 Fortune will not find you in your mansion turned to gold
 C                D                 G                    F
 Brothers will desert you when your nights turn long and cold


[Bridge]
G       C          F         G       F            C          F            G
If you feel it you better believe it you’re gonna see it, so you really know
F     C      F      G       F           C       F     G
It is rising like a feather dipping and dancing from below
F         C        F       G        F      C         F        G
There's a new wave that is breaking in the wake of a passing ship
 F     C        F        G      F        C       F            G  F C
Every nation's gonna be shaken Put it together, don’t let it slip


[Chorus]
(C)                                 A                C        D      A
  It's time you tried living on the high side of the bay, you need a rest
C                          A             C        D      A
Any man or a woman with a wish to fade away could be so blessed
