F# Bb7b5 Eb7 Ab7
On a little bamboo bridge By the waters of Kalua,
C#7 F#
Beneath Hawaiian skies I fell in love with you.
F# Bb7b5 Eb7 Ab7
On a little bamboo bridge By the waters of Kalua,
C#7 F#
We found a paradise, A paradise for two.
B Bm F#
While we were gazing in the water,
B Bm F#
The silvery ripples kissed the shore,
Ab7
And your reflection in the water
C#7
Seemed to say you'd be mine for evermore.
F# Bb7b5 Eb7 Ab7
On a little bamboo bridge By the waters of Kalua,
C#7 F#
You made my dreams come true, Sweetheart, when I found you!
