Hawaiian War Chant

D
There's a sunny little, funny little melody
that was started by a native down in Waikiki,
G                 D
he would gather a crowd down beside the sea,
      A                         D
and they'd play his gay Hawaiin Chant.

 D
Soon the other little natives started singin' it,
and the hula hula maidens starting swingin' it,
G                          D
like a tropical storm, that's the way it hit,
     A                    D
funny little gay Hawaiian chant.
G   D     A   D
Ow  way,  tah tualan. (2x)

 D
Though it started on an island down Hawaii way,
it's as popular in Tennessee or Ioway,
G              D
if you wander into any cabaret,
A                               D
you will hear this gay Hawaiian chant
G   D     A   D
Ow  way,  tah tualan. (2x)
