Lava Song

Lava Song


C                                    G7
A long long time ago there was a volcano
F                                   C                  G7
living all alone in the middle of the sea.
C                                   G7
He sat high above his bay watching  all the couples play
F                           C                       G7
and wishing that he had someone too.
C                                              G7
and from his lava came this song of hope that he sang
F                             C                   G7
out loud every day for years and years.

chorus
F                        C
I have a dream I hope will come true
        G7                                   C
that you're here with me and I'm here with you.
F                                                C
I wish that the earth, sea, the sky above
F                       G7             C
will send me someone to lava.

verse 2
C                                        G7
Years of singing all alone turned his lava into stone
F                               C             G7
until he was on the brink of extinction.
C                                           G7
But little did he know that living in the sea below
F                                 C                     G7
another volcano was listening to his song.
C                                             G7
Every day she heard his tune her lava grew and grew
F                                       C                             G7
because she believed his song was meant for her.
C                                         G7
Now she was so ready to meet him above the sea
             F                             C                G7
as he sang his song of hope for the last time.

Chorus
C
Rising from the sea below
G7
stood a lovely volcano
F
looking all around
              C                   G7
but she could not see him.
C                                                   G7
He tried to sing to let her know, That she was not there alone
F                                 C                   G7
but with no lava his songs was all gone.
       C                                                   G7
he filled the sea with his tears and watched his dreams disappear
        F                                      C                        G7
as she remembered what his song meant to her.

chorus
      C                                  G7
oh they were so happy to finally meet above the sea
F                                  C                       G7
all together now their lava grew and grew
      C                                             G7
no longer are they all alone with Aloha as their new home
        F                                C                        G7
and when you visit them this is what they sing.

Last Chorus
F                           C
I have a dream I hope will come true
          G7
 that you'll grow old with me
        C
and I'll grow old with you.
         F
we thank the earth, the sea,
         C
 the sky, we thank too
F   G7  C
I lava you
F  G7  C
I lava you
F  G7  C
I lava you.
