[D]This is my island in the [G]sun
Where my [A]people have toiled

I will sail on [Em]many a sea
Her [D]shores will always be home to me

[Chorus 1]
[D]Oh, isl[G]and in the sun
[A]Willed to me by my [D]father's hand
All my days I [G]will sing in praise
Of [A]your forest, waters,
your [D]shining [A]sand[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]As morning bre[G]aks the heaven on high
[A]I lift my heavy loa[D]d to the sky
Sun comes down with [Em]a burning glow
[D]Mingles my sweat with [A]the earth be[D]low

[Chorus 2]
[D]Oh, island in [G]the sun
[A]Willed to me by my [D]father's hand

[A]Cutting cane for her[D] family
I see man [Em]at the waterside
[D]Casting nets at [A]the surging [D]tide

[Chorus 3]
[D]Oh, island in [G]the sun
[A]Willed to me by my [D]father's hand

Never let me miss [Ab]carnival
[Eb]With calypso songs phi[Bb]losophi[Eb]cal

[Chorus 4]
[Eb]Oh, island in th[Ab]e sun
[Bb]Willed to me by my [Eb]father's hand
All my days I will [Ab]sing in praise

your [Eb]shining sand
