VERSE 1
********
       C                       Dm       F
So you come to my world, I can show you
           C                             Bb
Where they lead to the footprints in the sand
       C                             Dm      F
On the paths through the valleys and canyons
       C                          Bb
To the veins in your arm, take my hand


----------------------------------------------------
CHORUS
*******
        Dm         Am           Eb
I’m the man on the rocks on the island
                     Bb          F
The black pearl, the fool on the hill
        F           Am         Eb
I’m the gold at the end of the rainbow
                Bb          F
If I ask you to follow, you will


----------------------------------------------------
VERSE 2
********
       C                        Dm      F
So you come to my world to find freedom
         C                           Bb
Give you wings to the stars, you can fly
          C                           Dm  F
Bring you hope and a dream to believe in
       C                               Bb
As you float through the dark, crimson sky


----------------------------------------------------
CHORUS
*******
        Dm         Am           Eb
I’m the man on the rocks on the island
                 Bb           F
The jewel in the crown of the king
        F           Am            Eb
I’m the hope in the hearts of the helpless
                Bb          C
The choir where no-one will sing

          F                C
There’s a trail out of the canyon
          Bb                   C
There’s a new life waiting out there
               F                 C
It’ll take you home, out of this chasm
              Bb                   C
Where there’s blue sky sunlight to share

VERSE 4 - Heavier
********
       F                   Gm            Bb
So you come to my world to escape it all
           F                                Eb
And you’re running from the dragons and the fools
            F                        Gm           Bb  
Through the dark, empty caverns deep in your soul
F                      Eb
Chasing the tiger, the jewels


----------------------------------------------------
CHORUS 
*******
            Gm         Dm           Ab
I’m the the man on the rocks on the island
                    Eb         Bb
I’m the beggar, the loser, the cheat
           Bb          Dm        Ab
So now you come to the gates for redemption
                Eb            F
With a ball and chain at your feet

There’s a new life waiting out there

It’ll take you home, out of this chasm
              Eb                    F
Where there’s blue sky, sunlight to share
