(E A) x4
VERSE 1
   EI am just a sAatelliteE, high above the aAtmosphere
  EBouncing eveAry thing you say to Bsomeone who is meant to hear
  DSometimes on a rainy day, AI lie in bed and dream of you
                     E                      A                    B    E    A(E A) x4
  So blame it on the satellite, when your message can't get through
VERSE 2
  EI am just a tAiny wave, Ea minor ripple out at sAea
  EMoving slowly Atowards the shore, burdBened with uncertainty
  DI'm gaining power, losing speed, wAondering as I near your door
                     E             A                        B    E    A(E A) x4
  Will you hold it open for the tidal wave approaching shore?
CHORUS
   BYou've become an island Ein the hazy world surrounding me
   DOffering a vast reward Aeach time I safely cross the sea
   C#mAll too often I become lost Bin the fog and haze
                                  D                           A    E   A(E A) x4
   Clinging still, against my will, to promises of clearer days
SOLO (follows verse chords)
CHORUS
   BYou've become an island Ein the hazy world surrounding me
   DOffering a vast reward Aeach time I safely cross the sea
   C#mAll too often I become lost Bin the fog and haze
                                  D                           A    E   A(E A) x4
   Clinging still, against my will, to promises of clearer days
VERSE 3
   EI am just a Araindrop that Eaccelerates withouAt control
   ELosing bits aAnd pieces in descent 'tBil I'm no longer whole
   DI am just another shooting star aAbove that you might see
   EUntil I have your fAull attention IB'll be anything but EmeA  
EAnything but Ame   x4
