Hawaii Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][Em][F][G]

[Verse 1]
I'll take a[C]nother cold beer from you, [Em]brother
Got a [Dm]story I could tell ya
Could you [G]drop a pink umbrella
in my [C]High Life?
And make it look like a [Em]Mai Tai
I'll [Dm]paint you a palm tree picture
Couple [G]fools in paradise

[Chorus 1]
Swept up in the [C]blue
We were living life in a [Em]movie
Just like [F]Elvis and Priscilla,
yeah, the both of us
Drinking [G]pineapple rum out of a coconut
By the [C]ocean, happy as a ukele[Em]le
Yeah, that [F]rainbow we were under
Sometimes I wonder [G]why we
ever left Ha[C]waii[C]

[Verse 2]
Back on the [C]mainland
Things ain't the [Em]same, man
Wish we could [Dm]go back to island time
We had a [G]plan to sell bamboo wind chimes
At a [C]roadside souvenir stand
[Em]We had it all in the palm of our hands
But it [Dm]slipped right through like sand
in Waimea [G]Bay
We shoulda stayed

[Chorus 2]
Swept up in the [C]blue
We were living life in a [Em]movie
Just like [F]Elvis and Priscilla,
yeah, the both of us
Drinking [G]pineapple rum out of a coconut
By the [C]ocean, happy as a ukele[Em]le
Yeah, that [F]rainbow we were under
Sometimes I wonder [G]why we
ever left Ha[C]waii

[Interlude 1]
[Am][G][F]
[Am][G][D]

[Chorus 3]
Swept up in the [C]blue
We were living life in a [Em]movie
Just like [F]Elvis and Priscilla,
yeah, the both of us
Drinking [G]pineapple rum out of a coconut
By the [C]ocean, happy as a ukele[Em]le
Yeah, that [F]rainbow we were under
Sometimes I wonder [G]why we
ever left Ha[C]waii[Em]
Ever left Ha[F]waii[G][C]
