Isla

E

[Verse]
E                          A              E
Time goes so fast, and sometimes so does life
E                        A              E
I’d let you go but my darling you fit right
              F#m
And I’m in love
F#m                                E
I hope I cross your path another time

E                          A         E
I took a chance, and it left me paralysed
E                          A            E
A year without you was as lethal as a knife
              F#m
And I’m terrified
F#m                                E
I’m back to being me without a bride


[Chorus]
F#m                   E A E
Isla, Isla wait for me
F#m                         E A E
Isla, please don’t forget me

[Verse]
E                          A              E
When I returned I could barely sleep at night
E                          A        E
An empty bed and a tear drop in my eye
            F#m
Later that day
F#m                                    E A E
The kerosene would meet the naked flames

E                       A                 E
I tried my luck, and I took you to one side
E                              A              E
Confessed my love and how it aLmost cost my life
              F#m
I’d give it all
F#m                                     E A E
For just another late night on the grove



[Chorus]
F#m                    E  A E
Isla, Isla wait for me
    F#m                              E  A E
Oh IAbmsla, please don’t set me free
F#m                            E  A E
Oh Isla, my love, follow me
         F#m                        E
At your altar, I can't hold my peace

[Verse]
               C#m                                              E  A E
I heard the belEbmls, on the short walk from church to your gardn
             F#m                               E  A E
Above the marque, his contrails aligned for you
            C#m                               E  A E
He is watching, he follows in your magpie army
        F#m                                            E  A E
Over railroads, I can’t help but raise both of my feet

[Chorus]
F#m                 E  A E
Isla, Isla conquer me
    F#m                       E  A E
Oh Isla, you’re the one I see
F#m                              E  A E
Oh Isla, please grow old with me
         F#m                        E
At your altar, I sure hope its me
