{title: My Little Grass Shack in Kealakekua}
{artist: Lyrics & Music: B.Cogswell, T.Harrison and J.Noble (1933)}

{comment: Verse 1}
I want to go [G]back to my little grass shack
In Kealakekua, [A7]Hawaii
I want to [D7]be with all the kanes and wahines
That I used to [G]know... so long ago
I can [B7]hear the old guitars a-playing[E7]
On the beach at Honaunau
I can [A7]hear the old Hawaiians saying
"Komo [D7]mai no kaua i ka hale welakahau"

Back to [A7]Kona
A [D7]grand old place
That's always fair to [B7]see... you're telling me
