======================
Intro: D D G A A G D (repeat)
D G A
IA ORA TE NA-TURA
A G D G A
E MEA A-ROFA TEIE AO NEI
D G A
IA ORA TE NA-TURA
A G D G A
E MEA A-ROFA TEIE AO NEI
D C
I know I don't get there often enough
D C
But God knows I surely try
D C
It's a magic kind of medicine
G F D
That no doctor could prescribe
D C
I used to rule my world from a pay phone
D C
And ships out on the sea
D
But now times are rough
C
And I got too much stuff
G F D
Can't explain the likes of me
Chorus:
D G A D
But there's this one particular harbor
G A D
So far but yet so near
G A D G
Where I see the days as they fade away
G A D
And finally disappear
A
But now I think about the good times
D
Down in the Caribbean sunshine
A
In my younger days I was so bad
G A D
Laughin' about all the fun we had
A
I've seen enough to feel the world spin
D
Mixin' different oceans meetin' cousins
A
Listen to the drummers and the night sounds
G A D
Listen to the singers make the world go round
(SOLO [repeats chorus chords])
A D
IA ORA TE NATURA
A D
E MEA AROFA TEIE AO NEI
A D
IA ORA TE NATURA
A D
E MEA AROFA TEIE AO NEI
D C
Lakes below the mountains
D C
Flow into the sea
D C
Like oils applied to canvas
G F D
They permeate through me
D G A D
And there's that one particular harbor
G A D
Sheltered from the wind
G A D G
Where the children play on the shore each day
G A D
And all are safe within
D G A D
A most mysterious calling harbor
G A D
So far but yet so near
G A D G
Where I see the day when my hair's full gray
G A D
And I finally disappear
A D
IA ORA TE NATURA [translation:]
A D
E MEA AROFA TEIE AO NEI NATURE LIVES (LIFE TO NATURE)
A D
IA ORA TE NATURA HAVE PITY FOR THE EARTH
D A D
E MEA AROFA TEIE AO NEI (LOVE THE EARTH)
UA PAU TE MAITAI NO TE FENUA BOUNTY OF THE LAND IS EXHAUSTED
TE ZAI NOA RA TE ORA O TE MITIE BUT THERE'S STILL ABUNDANCE
IN THE SEA
