Intro/Verse:


  C  C  G7  G7  F  F  C  G7  G7


 C             C
  A long, long time ago

 G7           G7
  There was a volcano

F        F                C             G7    G7
  Living all alone in the middle of the sea

  C            C
  He sat high above his bed

  G7               G7
  Watching all the couples play

F     F            C              G7    G7
  And wishing that he had someone too


 C             C
  And from his lava came

       G7           G7
  This song of hope that he sang out-

  F    F        C             G7    G7
 -loud everyday for years and years


Chorus:

 F         F
  I have a dream

    C              C
  I hope will come true

       G7               G7
  That you're here with me

      C             C
  and I'm here with you

    F             F                 C       C
  I wish that the earth, sea, & the sky up above-a

       F       G7         C   C
  Will send me someone to lava


Verse:

  F  F  G7  G7  C  C

  C                C
  Years of singing all alone

  G7              G7
  turned his lava into stone

    F   F             C              G7  G7
  Until he was on the brink of extinction


 C           C
  But little did he know

       G7            G7
  That living in the sea below

   F      F           C                G7  G7
  Another volcano was listening to his song

 C              C
  Every day she heard his tune

  G7       G7
  Her lava grew and grew

    F     F                C                  G7  G7
  Because she believed his song was meant for her


 C            C
  Now she was so ready

     G7        G7
  To meet him above the sea

        F        F            C            G7   G7
  As he sang his song of hope for the last time

Chorus:

 F         F
  I have a dream

    C              C
  I hope will come true

       G7               G7
  That you're here with me

      C             C
  And I'm here with you

    F             F                 C       C
  I wish that the earth, sea, & the sky up above-a

       F       G7         C   C(single strum)
  Will send me someone to lava


Verse:

  C  C

  C               C
  Rising from the sea below

  G7             G7
  Stood a lovely volcano

 F        F              C                 G7  G7
  Looking all around but she could not see him


     C                C
  He tried to sing to let her know

       G7          G7
  That she was not there alone

      F       F        C            G7  G7
  But with no lava his song was all gone


     C              C
  He filled the sea with his tears

      G7                 G7
  And watched his dreams disappear

     F     F                 C             G7  G7
  As she remembered what his song meant to her


Chorus:

 F         F
  I have a dream

    C              C
  I hope will come true

       G7               G7
  That you're here with me

      C             C
  And I'm here with you

    F             F                 C       C
  I wish that the earth, sea, & the sky up above-a

       F       G7         C   C(single strum)
  Will send me someone to lava


Final Verse:

  C  C  C  C

  C            C
  Oh they were so happy

     G7            G7
  To finally meet above the sea

 F       F               C             G7   G7
  All together now their lava grew and grew


     C               C
  No longer are they all alone

        G7      G7
  With aloha as their new home

 F             F          C                 G7  G7
  And when you visit them this is what they sing

     F         F
Both: I have a dream

        C              C
Both: I hope will come true

           G7                   G7
Lele: That you'll grow old with me (Uku:  Ooooh)

          C                  C
Uku:  And I'll grow old with you   (Lele: Ooooh)

      F            F                 C            C
Both: We thank the earth, sea, & the sky we thank too

      F G7   C  C
Both: I lava you

      F G7   C  C
Both: I lava you

      F (single strum) G7      C
Both: I                lava    you
