             A 
Whether your in L.A., 
Sunny laid back L.A., 
Whether your in New York, 
Comfort 'round your block, 
             E 
Whether your in the U.K., 
Where the sky is dark, 
And the grass is kinda green, 
You know like central park, 
         D 
Still my favourite place in this whole wide world, 
Has got to be in the middle of the ocean floor, 
          A 
I see you pokin' out the ocean paradise on earth, 
The fiftieth state, what!? Hawaii. 
 
A 
oohhh 
E 
oohhh 
                          D 
I wanna dip into somethin different, 
oh oh oh, 
a nuclear disaster might be on our way, 
    A 
but I don't care I'm in the USA, 
              A 
Whether we're drunk or stoned or we're sober and old, 
If I'm with you I'm a happy man, 
            E 
If you feel safe and cold while you count your gold, 
If your problem is you can't find your remote control, 
        D 
Say, my favourite person in this whole wide world, 
Is a woman who could understand every word, 
             A 
And when she speaks to me she makes me see the world, 
As my favorite place, Hawaii, 
 
A 
We got it made 
    E 
ohhhh 
yes I know 
          D 
Can we go 
            A 
by plane or boat 
        E 
ohhhhhh 
 
A 
Whether you take it slow or you let me go, 
Whether you tell me somethin that I did not know, 
             E 
Whether your neat and polite or you scream and fight, 
Whether you keep something from me that I would not like, 
         D 
Still my favourite attitude in this world so far, 
Is the friendly spirit of an iron heart, 
           A 
I like the way folks are in this most special place, 
I don't care what happens I'm taking a plane,
