[Intro] | D7 | D7 | G | [Verse 1]
G                                   C       G
There's a faraway Island, neath the silvery moonlight

       D7                  D         G
Just a paradise of dreams across the sea

G                      C              G
There's a maiden, all alone and still waitin'

        D7                     G
On that old Hawaiian shore for me
[Chorus]
G                   C                                G
The tears they were fallin' and the night-birds were callin'

       D7                       D                   G
As the breeze that night played through her hair so free

                    C                         G
The palm trees were swayin' soft guitars were playin'

 D7                   G    G7
Aloha'oe, farewell to thee
[Break] | C | C | G | G |
| D7 | D7 | G |
(Aloha'oe's melody)
[Verse 2]
G                                C           G
Happy lovers were strollin' lazy waters were rollin'

      D7                D              G
As my ship set sail and drifted out to sea

G                               C               G
The moon seemed to wonder as he watched from up yonder

        D7                                G
When my darlin' waved the last goodbye to me
[Verse 3]
G                                        C           G
When the shadows of twilight, blend with gold of the sunset

        D7                          D           G
I'll be headin' for that Isle where dreams come true

                               C             G
Mid that tropical splendor, my heart will surrender

        D7                      G
On that old Hawaiian shore with you
[Chorus]
G                   C                                G
The tears they were fallin' and the night-birds were callin'

       D7                              D           G
As the breeze that night plays through her hair so free

                    C                         G
The palm trees were swayin' soft guitars were playin'

 D7                  G    G7 G
Aloha'oe, farewel to thee
