Verse 1
Bb
The moment I arrived, I heard a lady say,
Gm
G
If this is Hawaii,
C
F
why don't I get a lay?
Bb
It may be rather hard for you to conceive,
F
G
F
until the day you leave.
A gleam was in her eye,
But I have planned this trip
C
F
And if you get it when you leave,
F
C
Not wishing to see her spoil the maiden trip,
Gm
C
F
Let me tell you exactly what I'll do
C
F
I'll take you to dance
G
C
and to dine every night
I'll give you romance
Bb
And to be sure that you don't shed a tear
C
F
She said, it sounds divine,
C
Gm
C
quiet alright with me.
Romance is sparkling wine,
It's nice of you to give
C
F
A peach boy then began
He carried in his hand
The gal said, there's a guy,
Gm
C
So I took out a lei, I had it all the time
Gm
C
I heard the lady say,
That's the longest lei,
F
C
but it still hung to the ground
G
C
began to swing and sway
C
F
But nobody likes to drag it in the sand
C
F
G
C
I'd given her lay after lay for a week
It wasn't the sunshine
F
C
F
When fi nally I returned
My lady friend, I learned,
I'm sure she got a leg
Gm
C
F
and thereby hangs the tale
