Chords for "Hawai`I Aloha" Henry Kapono, Keola & Moanalani Beamer, Hawai`i Legends Tour@MusicalInstrumentMuseum

_ _ _ _ _ _ Oh, since you're standing, _ _ you know we just can't leave you like this.
_ _ [F] So we would be honored, it's [Gm] a little bit of an experiment, a little different, we would
be honored if you would [Cm] stand and sing with us, Hawai'i [D] Aloha.
_ _ Now this is something that was written [F] by the Reverend Lorenzo Lyons at the turn of the century.
It's about the sands of our birth, it's about home and ohana, [A] of family, and all of those
wonderful things I don't think we quite get enough of these days.
So there are rules to be followed during the singing of this song, and at this point I
would normally admonish you to hold hands, so don't do that.
[F] _ _ But if you would please turn to your neighbor and or the person in back of you and just
say Aloha, _ acknowledge them, make a connection, mai ka'i Aloha.
_ Excellent.
_ Oh, mai ka'i, that's so nice.
Okay, and then we're going to sing, of course, I'm guessing there's [Bb] one or two of you that
may not know the [C] lyrics.
_ So and I'm really serious, if you do not know the words, you have to hum really [F] loud.
_ Okay, now, it doesn't matter if you're on key or off key, you use your shallow voice,
your garage voice, your by yourself in [Bb] the car voice, or your opera voice, whatever [C] you
got will take in, as long as it [F] comes from your heart.
And I'm also very serious, it's going to sound really corny, but for the next few minutes,
I want you to think like every happy thought you can conjure in your heart and your [Bb] mind.
Anything [Gm] positive that [C] you just value in your life, like even if it's like the [F] best cup
of coffee you had this morning, the puppy went on the paper, _ my mask fits, yay. _
_ All the goodness in our lives, let's celebrate that.
And we're going to sway to the music, going to sway to the music.
_ We also want to take a moment and thank the beautiful people here at the theater. _
On lights, we got Zach, on sound, Joel, our stage manager, Cassidy, our house manager,
Jillian, and our concierge, Linda.
[Eb] How about a big hand for the musical instrument museum?
These guys rock.
[F] Maika'iloa mem.
We love.
_ Okay, e Hawaii e kumu.
_ _ Pretend you're in the shower. _

Hanaue.

Kuu home kula iwi ni.
