G                 G7
Oh the palm trees sway
          C            G
Neath the moon on Kona Bay,
       D7   
Ginger blossoms waft perfume
   C             G
Ukuleles strum a tune
                       G7
Then I saw Your lovely face
          C               G  
Felt your soft and warm embrace
       D7                 G
Me ke aloha pumehana 'o Hawaii. X2

G                  G7
As we walk hand in hand
     C             G
Over lava rock and sand
      D7       
Salty sea spray in the air
            C                G
Trade winds gently blow your hair
                        G7
Lapping waves in pure delight
         C             G
Restless on this magic night
       D7                 G
Me ke aloha pumehana 'o Hawaii. x2

G           G7
In my koa canoe
         C               G
There is room for me and you
       D7           
Softly paddle on the sea
          C             G
While you hold me tenderly
                   G7
As we head back to shore
       C            G
I will love you evermore
       D7                 G
Me ke aloha pumehana 'o Hawaii.

G         G7
Haina 'ia mai
    C     G
Ana ka puana
        D7 
No ka wahine I kona
     C        G
I ka po ma ke kai
       G7        
E ho'i mai 
     C       G
No kaua la e pili
       D7               G
Me ke aloha pumehana 'o Hawaii
    D7                      G
Ke aloha no ku'u 'aina 'O Hawaii.
