I have no idea if this is correct, but there is no other version here on UG. (I 
wish there was) So I'm putting this here so I can practice and save this to my fav 
tabs. As this is my first tab I don't know how to add the chords.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
A                    F            G      A 
Ua mau, ke ea o ka 'aina, i ka pono, o Hawai'i 
       A                    F            G      A 
Ua mau, ke ea o ka 'aina, i ka pono, o Hawai'i 


   A 
If just for a day our king and queen  
      F 
Would visit all these islands and saw everything 
         G                                  A 
How would they feel about the changes of our land 


A 
Could you just imagine if they were around 
        F 
And saw highways on their sacred grounds 
        G                                    A 
How would they feel about this modern city life 


A 
Tears would come from each others eyes 
     F 
As they would stop to realize 
        G                                A 
That our people are in great great danger now 
A                F               G                    A 
How, would they feel, could their smiles be content, then cry 


      A 
      Cry for the gods, cry for the people 
      F 
      Cry for the land that was taken away 
      G                      A 
      And then yet you'll find,    Hawai'i  


A 
Could you just imagine if they came back 
F 
And saw traffic lights and railroad tracks 
G                                    A 
How would they feel about this modern city life 

Hawai'i 78 (continued) 
A 
Tears would come from each others eyes 
F 
As they would stop to realize 
G                                A 
That our land is in great great danger now 


A 
All the fighting that the king had done 
F 
To conquer all these islands now these condominiums 
G                                 A 
How would he feel if he saw Hawai'i nei 
A                F            G                      A 
How, would he feel, would his smile be content,  then cry 


       A                    F            G      A 
Ua mau, ke ea o ka 'aina, i ka pono, o Hawai'i 
       A                    F            G      A 
Ua mau, ke ea o ka 'aina, i ka pono, o Hawai'i
