(verse)
A C#m F#m E
I'm just a big dud, foolish from the start
A C#m F#m E
I make a wrong move, and the world just falls apart
A C#m F#m E B
And there's no cure for this disease, I'm making up
D
So it's a farce
A C#m F#m E
I live inside this, head and I'm at war
A C#m F#m E
Hero and villain, same time keeping score
A C#m F#m E B
And I'm not sure what I'm to do, inside these walls
D
Not anymore
(prechorus)
F#m E D
With my own life
(chorus)
F#m E A D
Get off the island and swim back to shore
F#m E
Girl, I don't think I could even last one second longer
A D
Cause in these waters I'm done for
F#m E
Now give me one good reason to stay here at all
A D
When the fee is too big, our apartment's too small
F#m E
Where's my life-saver when I'm screaming danger
A C#m F#m E
I'm screaming danger
(prechorus 2)
F#m B D
Get off the Island and swim back to shore
(verse)
A C#m F#m E
I'm just a victim, of unfortunate circumstance
A C#m F#m E
And this was my choice, oh shit, well I'll be damned
A C#m F#m E
And I got to stop dwelling on what I could have had
B D
Oh the times I could have, oh I just want to
(chorus)
F#m E A D
Get off the island and swim back to shore
F#m E
Girl, I don't think I could even last one second longer
A D
Cause in these waters I'm done for
F#m E
Now give me one good reason to stay here at all
A D
When the fee is too big, our apartment's too small
F#m E
Where's my life-saver when I'm screaming danger
A C#m F#m E
I just can't stay here any longer, help
I just can't stay here any longer, help
A
I just can't
A
Get off the Island
And maybe, one day
F#m
From your sand I'll float away
E
And never see you again
D
Island
(chorus) F#m E A D
(Get off the) Get off the island and swim back to shore
F#m E
Girl, I don't think I could even last one second longer
A D
Cause in these waters I'm done for
F#m E
Now give me one good reason to stay here at all
A D
When the fee is too big, our apartment's too small
F#m E
Where's my life-saver when I'm screaming danger
F# D
Where's my life-saver when I'm screaming danger
F#m E
Where's my life-saver when I'm screaming danger
A C#m F#m E
I'm screaming danger
Screaming danger
B D
Screaming danger
Get off the island
