One Particular Harbour

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-ROF  TEIE AO NEI
D         G  A
IA ORA TE NA-TURA
  A   G D         G  A
E MEA A-ROF  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      
     But there's this one 
    D
particular harbor
        G       A      D
     So far but yet so near

             G       A            
     Where I see the days as they 
D    G
fade away
         G         A    D
     And finally   disappear
          But now I think about the 
A
good times
          Down in the Caribbean 
D
sunshine
          In my younger days I was 
A
so bad
                                 G 
          Laughin' about all the 
  A  D
fun we had
          I've seen enough to feel 
    A
the world spin
          Mixin' different oceans 
        D
meetin' cousins
          Listen to the drummers and
     A
 the night sounds
          Listen to the singers make
     G     A  D
 the world go round

(G  O [repeats chorus chords])
A           D
IA ORA TE NATURA
      A             D
E MEA AROF  TEIE AO NEI
A         D
IA ORA TE NATURA
      A             D
E MEA AROF  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          
And there's that one particular 
D
harbor
      G    A      D
Sheltered from the wind
          G       A            D 
Where the children play on the 
   G
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   
Where I see the day when my 
       G
hair's full gray
     G       A      D
And I finally disappear

A           D
IA ORA TE NATURA               
[translation:]
      A             D
E MEA AROF  TEIE AO NEI            
NATUD  LIVES (LIFE TO NATUD )
A         D
IA ORA TE NATURA                   
HAVE PITY FOR THE EARTH
D      A            D
E MEA AROF  TEIE AO NEI            
(LOVE THE EARTH)
