John Prine — Lets Talk Dirty In Hawaiian (ver 2) Chords
This is my first tab, so please bear with me! Also, I should mention that I got all of
words from the previous tabber,
so thanks to him/her for that.
The verses and chorus are played the same way. I like to start each with the following run:
e —————————|
B —————————|
G —————————|
D —————————|
A ———0—2—3—|
E —3———————|
I also like to play the first strum of the F chord as follows:
e ——————1————|
B ——————1————|
G ————2——————|
D ———————————|
A ——3————————|
E ———————————|
The G7 chord is:
e —1—
B ———
G ———
D ———
A —2—
E —3—
Hope you enjoy!

Well, I packed my bags and bought myself a ticket

For the land of the tall palm tree

Aloha Old Milwaukee, Hello Waikiki
I just stepped down from the airplane

When I thought I heard her say
C A
Waka waka nuka nuka, waka waka nuka nuka
C G7 C
Would you like a lei?
Chorus:
Let's talk dirty in Hawaiian
Whisper in my ear
Kicka poo ka maka wa wah wahini
Are the words I long to hear
Lay your coconut on my tiki
What the hecka mooka mooka dear
Let's talk dirty in Hawaiian
Say the words I long to hear
It's a ukelele Honolulu sunset
Listen to the grass skirts sway
Drinking rum from a pineapple
Out on Honolulu Bay
The steel guitars all playing
While she's talking with her hands
Gimme gimme oka doka make a wish and wanta polka
Words I understand
(Chorus)
I boughta lota junka with my moola
And sent it to the folks back home
I never had the chance to dance the hula
Well I guess I should have known
When you start talking to the sweet wahini
Walking in the pale moonlight
Oka noka what a setta knocka rocka sis boom bocas
Hope I said it right
