Six (D5)years I’ve been in the ci ty
and ev ’ry night
I dream of the sea.
They say home

will this place
ev er sat is fy (D5)me?
For I come from the salt wa ter peo ple,
we al ways (G5)live
by the sea.
Now I’m down here, liv ing in the ci ty
with my man
and a fa mi ly.
My is land home,
my is land home,
my is land home
is wait ing for me.
My is land home,
my is land home,
my is land home
is wait ing for me.
In the eve ning a dry wind blows
from the hills
and a cross the plains.
I (Bm)close my eyes and I’m stand ing
in a boat,
on the sea a gain
and I’m (Bm)hold ing that long tur tle spear
and I feel I’m close now
to where it must be.
My is land home
is wait ing for me.
A ha,
