Intro:   B    E

E                 A                  E
Proudly swept the rain clouds by the cliffs
   B                        
As on it glided through the trees
           E          A            E
Still following, with glee, the liko
      Gb      B          E
The a hihi lehua of the valley


Chorus:
A          E
Aloha oe, aloha oe
     B                E
E ke onaona noho i ka lipo
    A               E
One fond embrace, a hoi ae au
B             E
Until we meet again


MEDLEY: E   A   E   B   E   A   E   Gb   B   E


Chorus:
A          E
Aloha oe, aloha oe
     B                E
E ke onaona noho i ka lipo
    A               E
One fond embrace, a hoi ae au
B             E
Until we meet again

The “E” chord in the line “E ke onaona noho i ka lipo” is not really a chord.It’s just mistakenly highlighted.

Please do not ask for strumming patterns. Sharing online how to literally play a song (i.e. strumming, rhythm and tempo) is not allowed by the MPA (Music Publishers Association) because of copyright issues.

Carefully listen to the song and try to really "feel" the rhythm. Once you get the basics of strumming, I can assure you it'll go real quick. Maybe the strumming guide can help you on your way.

Johnny Cash (born J.R. Cash, February 26, 1932 – September 12, 2003) was a Grammy Award-winning American country singer and songwriter. Cash is widely considered to be one of the most influential American musicians of the 20th century. Although primarily remembered as a country music icon, his genre-spanning songs and sound embraced rock and roll, rockabilly, blues, folk, and gospel. This crossover appeal won Cash the rare honor of multiple induction in the Country Music, Rock and Roll, and Gospel Music Halls of Fame.
