Come To Hawai'i

Song :
C
Intro :
C   E7   A7   D7   G7   C
C               E7      A7
When you've been working so hard
     D7        G7           C
You need a vacation for the day
       C            E7              A7
So I built a little paradise in the back yard
          D7                G7                     C
Where the breeze makes the cardboard palm trees sway
     A7
The neighbor girls with hula skirts a-flyin'
            D7                 G7
And the punch is genuine Hawaiian

Chorus :
C                   A7
Come to Hawaii, come to Hawaii,
Dm         G7      C
Come to Hawaii with me

C               E7      A7
A wading pool is the clear blue ocean
     D7        G7           C
A sheet for the white Hawaiian sand
       C            E7              A7
Bring your swimming suit in case you get the notion
        D7            G7             C
We'll eat pineapple fresh from the can
     A7
And if you close your eyes and dream
           D7                 G7
You'll be amazed at just how real it seems

Chorus :
C                   A7
Come to Hawaii, come to Hawaii,
Dm         G7          C
Come to Hawaii with me
C                   A7
Come to Hawaii, come to Hawaii,
Dm         G7          C
Come to Hawaii with me

C               E7      A7
We hear our Mama call over the ocean
     D7        G7           C
We know that it's time to come in
       C            E7              A7
She says "supper's ready now get your bodies in motion"
        D7            G7             C
And we know that our trip is at an end
A7
But as we see the sun go down
           D7                 G7
It casts a tropical hue over our little town

Chorus :
C                   A7
Come to Hawaii, come to Hawaii,
Dm         G7          C
Come to Hawaii with me
C                   A7
Come to Hawaii, come to Hawaii,
Dm         G7          C
Come to Hawaii with me
