North Shore Reggae Blues

Recorded By: Willie K. (Kahaiali'i)

Chorus 1:           Dm
         Under the mango tree
                          Gm
         Waiting for the sunrise
                          Am
         Heading for the north shore
                             Gm-Am-Gm(hold higher on fret board)-Am(h.h.o.f.)
         Whoa  whoa  whoa  whoa

Verse 1: Dm                       Gm
         My body's achin' for a freedom ride
         Dm                           Am
         The brother's callin' me to join them
         Dm                         Gm
         The party's jammin' on the other side
         F            Bb     F   Am
         Over on the north shore

         The mynah birds are leading all the way
         They're tellin' me how to get there
         I'm concentrating on my early drive
         Drivin' to the north shore

Chorus 1

Chorus 2:                 Dm
         I hear the surf callin' me 
                    Gm  
         Singing a new song
                          Am
         Headin' for the north shore
                          Gm-Am-Gm-Am
         Whoa whoa whoa whoa

Verse 2: I wipe my hair away from my eyes
         I like to feel the wind on my face
         The salty air begins to make me breathe
         Down in the north shore

         I lay my mistress on the (surfin' swell)?
         And there she flows she starts to smile at me
         I spread my wings and now I'm on my way
         Riding in the north shore

Chorus 1,2

Instrumental (Harmonica)

Bridge: Gm  Am  Gm  Am  Gm  
        Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
        Gm
        Let it rise much higher and higher
        Gm  Am  Gm  Am  Gm
        Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
        Gm 
        Take me now I'm yours take me
        Gm  Am  Gm  Am  Gm 
        Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
        Gm                             Am
        Look at me I'm higher than a mountain
