Tuning: G C E A
Lava - Music from the Pixar Studios short film Written and played by Jim Ford Murphy Originally sung by Kuana Torres Kahele and Napua Greig [Intro] C G7 F C G7 [Verse]
CA long long time ago, G7there was a volcano. FLiving all alone, in the Cmiddle of the G7sea. CHe sat high above his bay, G7watching all the couples play, Fand wishing that, Che had someone G7too. CAnd from his lava came, G7this song of hope that he sang Fout-loud every day, fCor years and yG7ears.
[Chorus]
FI have a dream, CI hope will come true, that G7you’re here with me and IC’m here with you. FI wish that the earth, sea, the Csky up above will Fsend me G7someone to lCava.
(Slowly) F G7 C [Verse]
CYears of singing all alone, G7turned his lava into stone, Funtil he was on the Cbrink of extinctiG7on. CBut little did he know that G7living in the sea below Fanother volcano was Clistening to his G7song.
[Verse]
CEvery day she heard his tune, her G7lava grew and grew Fbecause she believed his Csong was meant for G7her. CNow she was so ready to G7meet him above the sea Fas he sang his song of hope Cfor the last tG7ime.
(Slowly) [Chorus]
FI have a dream, I Chope will come true, that yG7ou’re here with me and IC’m here with you. FI wish that the earth, sea, the Csky up above will Fsend me G7someone to lCava.
(Pause) (Slowly) [Verse]
CRising from the sea below G7stood a lovely volcano Flooking all around but she Ccould not see hG7im. CHe tried to sing to let her know that G7she was not there alone, but Fwith no lava his Csong was allG7 gone. CHe filled the sea with his tears G7and watched his dreams disappear Fas she remembered what his Csong meant to G7her.
[Chorus]
FI have a dream, I Chope will come true, that G7you’re here with me and CI’m here with you. FI wish that the earth, sea, the Csky up above will Fsend me G7someone to Clava.
(Faster) [Verse]
COh they were so happy to finaG7lly meet above the sea Fall together now their lCava grew and G7grew. CNo longer are they alone with AG7loha as their new home and Fwhen you visit them, Cthis is what they G7sing…
[Chorus]
FI have a dream, I Chope will come true, that G7you’ll grow old with me aCnd I’ll grow old with you. FWe thank the earth, sea, and theC sky we thank too FI lG7ava yCou FI lG7ava yCou FI lG7ava yCou
