So he says,
_ _ _ Here I am in
[F#] _ _ the [G#] presence of the bull sir.
[F#] _ _ _ _
So here I am, [C#] I _ _ am one [F#] with
the bull [C#] _ and here I perk [G#] up and
I perk up too, each of the ways.

And he ends with hala hala hala, we call it a tra la la.
It's a celebration of the [C#] moment.
La [F#] ea, la la la, you hear a lot of la's.

We use the same description of the word kikaha means to glide or to soar like a bird
[C#] outstretched.
And so that same imagery of a bird gliding on the
_ wind is _ [D#] similar to that of the [F#] relationship
between the circle and the wind.

vaqueros came in the latter part of the 1700s into the early 1800s
they brought with them.
_ [C#] _ Not just the cowboy traditions but their [F#] musical traditions.
And so Hawaiians [F#] thought that was kind of fancy.
_ [B] _ So we [F#] learned how to
not just tighten up our saddle but tighten [C#] up your voice a little [F#] bit.
And of that, [F#m] both of the vaquero [F#] tradition of the Mexican
cowboy and the Hawaiian cowboy was born.
_ _ _ _ Okay, _ _ whoo!
_ _ Not really a falsetto singer but [C#] we'll try.
