Verse 1:
  E6            Em7
I remember coming home before
      A7      Dmaj7 D6 Dmaj7
but it was nothing like this
 E6                 Em7 A7
I don’t recall a time I’ve missed you more
    Dmaj7 D6 Dmaj7
than now (than now)
    E6      Em7      D6 Dmaj7
Not an hour ago I’d bidden you so long
Dmaj7  G13   Dm6
So long ago, it seems

Chorus:
 E6
Aloha for now,
    Em7
Don’t you ever think
   A7      Dmaj7    D6
That I won’t ever think of you
     Dmaj7
Don’t you dare to dream
    G13  Dm6   E6
That I won’t dare to dream of you
   Em7    A7  Dmaj7  G13 Dm6
After all, it’s just aloha ...
   E6    Em7  A7 Dmaj7    D6   Dmaj7   Dm6
for now, oo-oo-ooooo-oo, oooooo-oo-o-ooooo, ooooo-o-o-o


Verse 2:
  E6              Em7     A7
Hello again to ordinary life (hello again to ordinary life)
    Dmaj7  D6    Dmaj7
Hello to Mondays, hello responsibility-y
  E6             Em7 A7
Goodbye to every single thing I tried
  Dmaj7 D6 Dmaj7 Dm6
to hold
   E6      Em7     D6 Dmaj7
Not a day ago I’d bidden you farewell
Dmaj7     G13   Dm6
Well, it’s not fair at all


Chorus:
 E6
Aloha for now,
    Em7
Don’t you ever think
   A7      Dmaj7    D6
That I won’t ever think of you
     Dmaj7
Don’t you dare to dream
    G13 Dm6    E6
That I won’t dare to dream of you
   Em7    A7  Dmaj7  G13 Dm6
After all, it’s just aloha ...
   E6       Em7        A7
for now, doo doo do dooo, do dooo, do dooo


Bridge:
         Dmaj7    D6
See I won’t make promises to you,
        G13       Dm6
won’t tell you every wish comes true
    E6
Or that all our plans will go
      Em7    A7
the way we hope they do
        Dmaj7    D6
Don’t make your promises to me.
        G13           Dm6
Don’t say that things weren’t meant to be
     E6
Cuz I’ll try my best
      Em7        A7
To see that goodbye’s nothing more than just...
