Verse 1:
            G5        G5     C5
There's a place I recall
D5                                  G5
Not too big, in fact it's kind of small
                G5                C5
The people there say they got it all
D5                  G5     D5
The simple life for me

CHORUS:
G5            G5       C5
Hele on to Kaua'i, Hanalei by the bay
D5                                       G5
Wailua river valley is where i used to play
                 G5      C5
The canyons of Waimea standing all alone
      D5                                         G5
The magic of the garden isle is calling me back home

Verse 2:
G5               G5            C5
When I was young and not too smart
D5                                       G5
I left my home, looking for a brand new start
               G5                C5
To find a place thats better still
D5                              G5
But now I know, I know I never will

repeat chorus
