Verse 1:
A A E E F#m F#m D D
I will live my life as a lobster-man's wife
A A E E A A E E
on an island in the blue bay.
A A E E
He will take care of me,
F#m F#m D D
he will smell like the sea,
A A E E A A
And close to my heart he'll always stay.

A A E E F#m F#m D D
I will bear three girls all with strawberry curls,
A A E E A A E E
little Ella and Nelly and Faye.
A A E E F#m F#m D D
While I'm combing their hair, I will catch his warm stare
A A E E A A
On our island in the blue bay.

Chorus:
E E F#m F#m A A
Far away far away, I want to go far away.
A A E E
To a new life on a new shore line.
E E F#m F#m A A
Where the water is blue and the people are new.
E E D D Dm Dm A A
To another island, in another life.
Verse 2:
A A E E F#m F#m D D
There's a boy next to me and he never will be
A A E E A A E E
anything but a boy at the bar.
A A E E
And I think he's the tops,
F#m F#m D D
he's where everything stops.
A A E E A A E E
How I love to love him from afar.

D D A A F#m F#m D D
When he walks right pass me then I finally see
A A D D E E
on this bar stool I can't stay.
A A E E F#m F#m D D
So I'm taking my frown to a far distant town
A A E E A A
On an island in the blue bay.

(Chorus)

Bridge:
A A
I want to go far away.
F#m F#m E E
Away away, I want to go far away, away, away
A A
I want to go far away, far away.

Interlude:E E, F#m F#m, A A, E E, F#m F#m

E E F#m F#m A A
Where the water is blue and the people are new.
E E F#m F#m A A
To another life, to another life.
E E
To another shore line
D D Dm Dm A A
In another life.
