One Particular Harbor Jimmy Buffett
[E]IA ORA TE [A]NA-[B]TURA (English translation: below)
E [B]MEA [A]A-[E]ROFA TEIE [A]AO [B]NEI
[E]IA ORA TE [A]NA-[B]TURA
E [B]MEA [A]A-[E]ROFA TEIE [A]AO [B]NEI
I [E]know I don't get there [D]often enough
But God[E] knows I surely [D]try
It's a [E]magic kind of [D]medicine
That no [A]doctor [G] could pres[E]cribe
I used to [E]rule my world from a [D]pay phone
And [E]ships out on the [D]sea
But now [E]times are rough
And I got[D] too much stuff
Can't e[A]xplain the [G]likes of m[E]e
Chorus:
B[E]ut there's this [A]one [B]particular [E]harbor
So [A]far but [B]yet so [E]near
Where I [A]see the [B]days as they [E]fade [A]away
And [A]finally [B] disap[E]pear
But now I think about the [B]good times
Down in the Caribbean [E]sunshine
In my younger days I was [B]so bad
Laughin' about all the [B]fun [A]we [E]had
I've seen enough to feel the [B]world spin
Mixin' different oceans meetin' [E]cousins
Listen to the drummers and the [B]night sounds
Listen to the singers make the [B]world [A]go [E]round
(SOLO (repeats chorus chords))
IA ORA TE NATURA
E MEA AROFA TEIE AO NEI
IA ORA TE NATURA
E MEA AROFA TEIE AO NEI
Lakes below the mountains
Flow into the sea
Like oils applied to canvas
They permeate through me
And there's that one particular harbor
Sheltered from the wind
Where the children play on the shore each day
And all are safe within
A most mysterious calling harbor
So far but yet so near
Where I see the day when my hair's full gray
And I finally disappear
IA ORA TE NATURA (translation:)
E MEA AROFA TEIE AO NEI NATURE LIVES (LIFE TO NATURE)
IA ORA TE NATURA HAVE PITY FOR THE EARTH
E MEA AROFA TEIE AO NEI (LOVE THE EARTH)
UA PAU TE MAITAI NO TE FENUA BOUNTY OF THE LAND IS EXHAUSTED
TE ZAI NOA RA TE ORA O TE MITIE BUT THERE'S STILL ABUNDANCE
IN THE SEA
