the song is basically a descending open chord
pattern that changes tempo during choruses and
interludes it's really simple, just stay in the rhythm
and I might add, a great song by a, sadly, little known songwriter

[D]you can leave the [C#m6]island
[C]but you can't leave my [Bm7]love
[G]you can't take bac[F#m6]k what you gave a[Em7sus4]way
[D]you can leave the [C#m6]island
[C]but you can't leave my [Bm7]heart
[G]you know the memor[F#m6]y remains[Em7sus4]
of the [D]moonlit nights
and the [C#m6]stars were high
you can see [C]Savannah shine across the w[Bm7]aves
d[D]ance along the shore
[C#m6]take our time for more
[C]and all along you know our hearts will [Bm7]sing
[D]you can leave the [C#m6]island
[C]but you can't leave my [Bm7]love
[G]you can't take bac[F#m6]k what you gave a[Em7sus4]way
[D]you can leave the [C#m6]island
[C]but you can't leave my [Bm7]heart

[D]and I loved y[C#m6]ou
[C] [Bm7]
[D]thinkin of yo[C#m6]u
[C]and I never will forget[Bm7]
and the f[D]eeling
had me r[C#m6]eeling
I can't [C]believe it
it's so [Bm7]easy
[G]to be fr[F#m6]ee[Em7sus4]
of the m[D]oonlit nights
and the [C#m6]stars were high
you c[C]an see Savannah shine across the[Bm7] waves
