Menehune Beach Bum Boogie

Composed By: David Dunaway 
Performed By: Imua 

Intro:  F-Bb-F-C7

F                             Bb
I wake up in the morning and I walk outside to see
      F                                         C7
if the waves are breaking head high or they're crumbling at the knee
F                                    Bb
I need to choose what board I'll use, my tanker or my gun
        C7                                  F
But I'll grab my snorkel, fins and spear if waves are none to one

Chorus:
        F                                  Bb
        I swing my hips from left to right, e ku'i 'ami just right
        C7                                  F
        It's the Menehune Beach Bum Boogie, boy is it a sight
                                            Bb
        I swing my hips from left to right, e ku'i 'ami just right
        C7
        It's the Menehune Beach Bum Boog---ie, oh what a sight
        F               Bb         F               C7
        Menehune Beach Bum Boogie, Menehune Boogie Woogie (2X)

F                                    Bb
North Shore summer no more waves, so let's picnic in the park
F                            C7
Swimming, fishing for 'Oama, jumping from the rock
F                                  Bb
Winter waves are mountains and the best go out to show
         C7
That the spirit of true surfers know that, Eh!!!  Eddie would go

Chorus
Instrumental

F                               Bb
I end the day of surfing with a meal no one can beat,
        F                        C7
Laulau, poke, poi and lomi salmon and some 'opihi
F                           Bb
I eat until my 'opu full, I know that it's a fact
     C7
That I'm coming down with all the symptoms of Kanak Attack!!!

Chorus
