This a song by Neil Murray, performed by the Warumpi Band on the 1987 album "Go Bush"

Intro

|G  |C  |G  |   |C  |   |G  |
|G  |C  |G  |   |D  |C  |G  |

Verse 1
     G          C           G
Six  years I've been in the desert
          C                    G
And every night I dream of the sea
         G    C              G
They say home   is where you find it
              D     C              G
But will this place   ever satisfy me

Verse 2
      G             C          G
For I come from the salt water people
          C            G
We always lived by the sea
        G        C             G
Now I'm out here west of Alice Springs
       D    C           G
With a wife   and a family

Chorus
              Em
And my island home
          G
My island home
          D    C                  G
My island home   is a waiting for me

Verse 3
       Em          D        G
In the evening the dry wind blows
         G                    C
From the hills and across the plains
  Em       D            G
I close my eyes and I'm standing
     G                C
In a boat on the sea again
        Em           D           G
And Iā??m holding that long turtle spear
               G                          C
And I feel Iā??m close now to where it must be
              D    C                  G
And my island home   is a waiting for me

Instrumental

Verse 4
      G             C          G
For I come from the salt water people
          C            G
We always lived by the sea
        G        C             G
Now I'm out here west of Alice Springs
       D    C           G
With a wife   and a family

Chorus
              Em
And my island home
          G
My island home
          D    C                  G
My island home   is a waiting for me

Verse 5
       Em          D        G
In the evening the dry wind blows
         G                    C
From the hills and across the plains
  Em       D            G
I close my eyes and I'm standing
     G                C
In a boat on the sea again
        Em           D           G
And Iā??m holding that long turtle spear
               G                          C
And I feel Iā??m close now to where it must be
              D    C                  G
And my island home   is a waiting for me
