Napua Greig - Imi Au Ia Oe chords
Start Jamming...
Yeah, I do come from upcountry Maui, and it's starting to show.
It's okay!
A little bit of 4th of July rodeo for you over there, yeah?
Okay.
[Bb] Well, we're so excited.
We have [D] so much talent here [E] today.
Coming up right [A] after this, we have the Nā Hoku [C] Hanohano Group of [D] the Year, Mauna Lua,
and they'll [E] be playing for you.
I know.
Woo!
That's what I came for.
[D] [Am] So, we'd like [D] to, um
[A]
Oh, I almost forgot what [N] I was going to Okay.
We'd like to do for you a song today.
A song written by Charles E.
King, and a previous version, very, very [Db] similar,
was written by our queen, Ili'uokalani.
And it's [G] a song that I [F] heard a lot, I hear, still hear a lot [D] at [Bm] funerals.
And I used to, when I started to listen to the [D] words, I used to wonder,
why do people sing it at funerals?
I'm sure there's a reason,
because our [Bb] kupuna always have a reason for everything.
But, um, it's called Imi Aua Oe,
[D] it's I'm searching for you, my love, in the fragrant walls of Puna.
And so, I'd like to dedicate this song to my friends on Maui.
They're getting married today, and in fact, I think they are married [G] by now.
Jeff and Mimi [G] McCord, they [D] got married at 11 o'clock today.
So I'd like to send this song out to them.
