Warren Zevon - The Hula Hula Boys

beautiful and simple song by the late warren zevon

intro : C G D G x2

C G
i saw her leave the luau

D G
with the one who parked the cars

C G
and the fat one from the swimming pool

D G
they were swaying arm in arm

C G
i could hear the ukuleles playing

D G
down by the sea

C G
she’s gone with the hula hula boys

D G
she don’t care about me

C G
she’s gone with the hula hula boys

D G
she don’t care about me

they’re singing
C G
ha’ina ’ia mai ana ka puana

D G
ha’ina ’ia mai ana ka puana

C G
ha’ina ’ia mai ana ka puana

D G
ha’ina ’ia mai ana ka puana

( intro )

yesterday she went to see the polynesian band
but she came home with her hair all wet
and her clothes all filled with sand

i didn’t have to come to maui
to be treated like a jerk
how do you think i feel
when i see the bellboys smirk?

and i can hear the ukuleles playing
down by the sea
she’s gone with the hula hula boys
she don’t care about me

they’re signing

ha’ina ’ia mai ana ka puana
ha’ina ’ia mai ana ka puana
ha’ina ’ia mai ana ka puana
ha’ina ’ia mai ana ka puana
ha’ina ’ia mai ana ka puana
ha’ina ’ia mai ana ka puana
