Beautiful song from Rise To Your Knees!

(I'm pretty sure the lyrics aren't 100% correct, but I can't really figure it out) 



Intro: G F F F (x4) G



 C               G       F              C

Someday on the moonwalk everything was right

 C             G        F          C

Bounced on the onfloat history of life

 C               G          F          F

Somewhere in the afterglow peeling it fell

          C               G            F    F F F

And it's good to see the happiness so far



            C                  G

You're the grass, you're the trees

             F                   C

You're the thing that makes the wind

            C             G

You're the roots of the sky

          F       F F F

You're an island



           C                 G

You never move, you never sleep

             F               C

You're the thought I cannot keep

          C               G

You're a denessen of the deep

          F       F F F G

You're an island



 C               G

Always in the never glades

 F               C

Purple wings in five

 C               G       F               C 

Predators in a picture, golden eyes and I

 C                G         F          F

Somewhere in the afterglow peeling it fell

            C             G             F    F F F

Where it's coming from no one can ever tell



            C                  G

You're the grass, you're the trees

             F                   C

You're the thing that makes the wind

            C             G

You're the roots of the sky

          F       F F F

You're an island



           C                 G

You never move, you never sleep

             F               C

You're the thought I cannot keep

          C               G

You're a denessen of the deep

          F       F F F G

You're an island



 C                 G        F             C

Somewhere on the earth now everything is cool

 C                 G          F              C

Drinking from the overflow splash becomes a pool

 C             G          F          F

Always in the after glow peeling it fell

            C             G             F    F F F

Where it's coming from no one can ever tell



            C                  G

You're the grass, you're the trees

             F                   C

You're the thing that makes the wind

            C             G

You're the roots of the sky

          F       F F F

You're an island



           C                 G

You never move, you never sleep

             F               C

You're the thought I cannot keep

          C               G

You're a denessen of the deep

            C                 G

You're the moon, you're the glass

       F                C

Down stone the donkeys ass

      C               G

Up above the heavens laugh

          F       F F F G

You're an island
