Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I want to go back  to my little grass shack
 In Kealakekua, Hawaii
 I want to be  with all the kanes and wahines
 That I used to know...  so long ago
 I can hear  the old guitars a-playing
On  the beach at Honaunau
 I can hear  the old Hawaiians saying
 "Komo mai  no kaua i ka hale welakahau"
 It won't be long  till my ship will be sailing
 Back to Kona
 A grand  old place
 That's always fair to see...  you're telling me
 I'm just  a little Hawaiian and a homesick island boy
 I want  to go back to my fish and poi
 I want to go back  to my little grass shack
 In Kealakekua, Hawaii
 Where the humu-humu  nuku-nuku a pua'a
 Go swimming by
 Where the humu-humu  nuku-nuku a pua'a
 Go swimming by
