[Verse 1]
[C]I d[Em]rifte[C]d[F][C][Em][Dm][F][A][G][C]
[G]in the Doldrum[C]s,
[F]almost [C]dead,
[G]A weedy, watery, tra[C]il,
[G]With a use[C]less rag[Em],
[C]han[F]gin above my [C]head,[Em]
[G]Not a [Dm]breath o' breeze to fill [G]my sail,
[C][G]
[C]Then liftin' up [G]my spyglass,
[F]ol' Buckley's [C]hope,
[G]I see[F]n som[C]ethin' o'e[Dm]r the[C] waves,
[D][C]
I throwed [Em]my things,
[C]I l[F]eft my boa[C]t,
[G]And swam out[Em] on my [C]way.
On a Desert [F]Isle,

[Verse 2]
Here I sing, oh- de- lee- ee- [Dm]oh- de- [C]lay- ee,
[G]Soft an'[C] sweet[Dbdim]
[Dm]Got no shirt or shoes [G]upon my feet,
Out in the middle [Db]of an o- [C]o- [F]oce[C]an,
[Gm][F]
Doin' [C]my [Dm]thing,
I'm [E]happy just [C]to dream, [G]and sing,
[C]Out livin' like a marabou[F]t king,
[G]Out on a Des[C]ert Isl[F]e[G][C][G]
[C]The shadin' palm trees

[Verse 3]
[F]bend an'[C] sway,
[G]The fish swi[Bm]m 'bo[G]ut my [C]feet,
[G]And a bre[C]eze blowin' sof[G]t
[Edim]'pon the[F] cor[C]dgrass play,
[G]A lazy old melody, [Dm]cool [C]an' sweet,[Dm]
[G]As [C]the sun goes [G]sinkin' in a painted [C]sky,
My [G]eye's on a pool [C]of light,
[G]Where the sta[C]rs cast a twi[G]nk
[C]lin' [F]veil on [C]high,[Em]
[G]Where I [Dm]sleep out [C]everynight...[G][F][C]
[F]One

[Verse 4]
mornin' the silence broke,
[Dm]As beset by a sea [C]high- horned
in [G]waves I [C]awoke,
[A]To find no remnants [Dm]of that [G]paradise,
[Bm]What [G]laid about me, were [Bdim]a changed,
[C]unfriendly lan[F]d,[C]
From beyond the [F]compass' reach,
I sings this song [C]of water an' [Dm]dun e,
Of wonder[E]s strange,
[C]Out of the glo[G]om,
there came a [C]sound like [Em]cry in' in t[Dbdim]he night,[D][G]
[Dm]My blue ruined e[D]yes I th[C]ought lied,
[D]A woman[G] draggin' up,[Bm]
[D]out of [Em]that [G]squawlin' tide.

[Verse 5]
On a desert [F]isle,[G][Dm]
Oh- de- lee- oh- [C]oh- de- lay- ee,
tired an' beat,
Writin' [Dm]help, in letters fifteen [G]feet,
[Em]
[G]Out on the beach,
beside [C]an [F]o- o- [C]ocean,[F]
Woe [C]is [F]me,
a cryin [E]baby boun[C]cin' on [G]my knee,
[C]In a little [A]grass shack [Dm]built for [G]three,
[Bm]Out on a [Em]Deser[G]t I[C]sle.[F][G][C]
