One Paricular Harbor

E        E        E        E
B7       E        B7       E
B7       E        B7       E

[Chorus]
B7          E           B7           E
Ia Ora Te Natura E Mea Arofa Teie Ao Nei
B7          E           B7           E        E
Ia Ora Te Natura E Mea Arofa Teie Ao Nei

[Verse 1]
  E                      D                    E              D
I know I don't get there often enough but God knows I surely try.
       E             D                  A      G          E
It's a magic kind of   medicine that no doctor   could prescribe.

[Interlude]
A   G        E

[Verse 2]
          E                    D             E                D
I used to rule my world from a pay phone and ships out on the sea, but
    E                         D                         A         G        E
now times are rough and I got   too much stuff. Can't explain the likes of me.

[Bridge]
                     A    B7    E          A       B7     E
But there's this one particular harbour so far but yet so near
        A       B7      E          C#m     A       B7    E
where I see the days as they fade away and finally   disappear

[Pre-Chorus]
                           B7                              E
But now I think about the good times down in the Caribbean sunshine.
                         B7                             E   A  E
In my younger days I was so bad, laughin' about all the fun we had.
                             B7                                          E
I've seen enough to feel the world spin, mixin' different oceans meetin' cousins.
                               B7                                           E     B7  E
Listen to the drummers and the night sounds, listen to the singers make the world go 'round.

[Interlude]
B7      E       B7      E A  E
B7      E       B7      A B7 E

[Chorus]
B7          E           B7           E
Ia Ora Te Natura E Mea Arofa Teie Ao Nei
B7          E           B7           E      E       E      E

[Verse 2]
E               D         E             D
Lakes below the mountains flow into the sea,
     E               D            A    G           E
like oils applied to canvas, they permeate through me.

[Bridge]
                 A      B7      E        A         B7       E
And there's that one particular harbour, sheltered from the wind,
          A        B7          E          C#m     A       B7       E
where the children play on the shore each day and all are safe within.
     A          B7      E           A       B7     E
Most mysterious calling harbour, so far but yet so near,
      A       B7          E           C#m        A       B7     E
I can see the day when my hair's full gray and I finally   disappear.

[Pre-End-Chorus 1]
N.C.        N.C.        N.C.         N.C.

[Pre-End-Chorus 2]
(B7)        (E)         (B7)         (E)

[End-Chorus] (Repeat and Fade Out)
B7          E           B7           E
