Verse 1
(G major) (F major) (E major) This is the story of a
Ma (A major) lahini, which means
newcomer to the
Hawaiian
Islands.
Well, this
Malahini, or newcomer, was so im (D major) pressed by their (E flat major) beauty,
he decided to write a (D major) song using all the new words he had (G major) learned there.
And he persuades his friend,
(A major) Alfred
Apaka, to sing (G major) it.
Alfred?
As I (D major) (G major) strolled along the shore, in the (C major) moo -moo made (D major) of corn, (G major)
(E flat major) while I (G major) played a tune on my
(A major) sweet (D major) old coley harp. (G major) (C major) (G major)
And I sang a pretty song, as she (C major) danced her (D major) sweet kapoo, (G major)
with a wiki -wiki smile (D major) and a (G major) (C major) (G major)
Pretty soon, (B major) by the light of
the tropical moon,
A mali (G major) hini (E minor) did appear,
An (A major) d he strolled hand in hand
On the beautiful sand,
With the (D major) lovely ilik 'i.
Then he softly (G major) told her how
It seemed a (C major) great big bad luau, (G major)
With the red old pool and the
(D major) great big hooky lark (G major) (C major) (G major)
Oom (D major) -ba (E flat major) -hoom -a (D major) -nook -a
(F major) -nook -a (D major) -wop -a (F major) -wop
Swim (D major) along (G major) singin' a song
Ghanis and
Vahin (D major) is (G major) and even little
Cakes
(A major) Sing a -ho -ho -molly -molly
and a -bell -a (D major) -ga -ha
As I (G major) strolled along the shore
In a (C major) moo -moo made of coal (G major)
While I played a tune on (D major) my sweet ol'
Coley howl (G major) (C major)
(D major) And (G major) now
Patti will give you the translation
of (C major) these charm (D major) ing
Hawaiian words (G major)
Thank you,
Alfred (C major)
(D major) As I (G major) strolled along the shore
In a (C major) dressy, dressy (D major) dress made (C major) of (G major) wood
While I played a tune on my (D major) sweet
ol' champagne glass (G major)
Catchy, (C major) isn't it?
And I (G major) (D major) sang (G major) a pretty song as she (C major) danced,
keep (D major) off the grass (G major)
With a silly, silly smile (D major) an d a dress way
out a mile behind her (G major) (C major) (D major) (G major)
Pretty soon, (B major) by the light of a tropical moon,
a brawny (E minor) stranger did appear
As (E major) we (A major) strolled hand in hand,
all alone on the sand with a (D major) military band
Then he softly (G major) told her how he'd seen them (C major) barbecue a (G major) cow
with the sunburnt tummy an (D major) d a great big old fish catch. (G major)
Oh, (C major) you better help (G major) me out,
Al.
The smal (D major) lest fish (E flat major) with (E minor) the longest name (D major) were
(F sharp major) swimming (D major) along (E major) an (G major) d singing a song.
All the boys and (D major) all the (G major) girls and
even little ba (D major) bies (A major) sing,
Dick you soon,
Jack, and what (D major) you know,
Joe
As I (G major) strolled along the (D major) shore (G major)
In a (C major) dressy, dressy dress made of (G major) wood
While I played a tune on my
(D major) sweet old coley howl (G major)
Oh, (B major) what now? (E major)
Has (D major) he (A major) played a tune
Neat the (E flat major) summer moon?
Sweet (A major) old coley (D major) howl (G major) (C major) (G major)
you
