Verse 1: C There's a place I recall G Not too big, in fact it's kind of small C The people there say they got it all D7 The simple life for me CHORUS: C Hele on to Kaua'i, Hanalei by the bay G Wailua river valley is where i used to play C The canyons of Waimea standing all alone G The magic of the garden isle is calling me back home
Verse 2: C When I was young and not too smart G I left my home, looking for a brand new start C To find a place thats better still G But now I know, I know I never will
