[Verse 1]
C                        Dm7
Kua noho, i te tapa o te tai nei
              Am       F
Mai anō ki te tai nei, ngākaurua ana e
C                 Dm7
Aue, ahakoa rā te kāinga
                    Am   F
Ka hoki mai ki te moana, ahakoa te aha
     Am
Huri ke atu, taka kē ana
   G
Ia te ara, hoki kē rawa
      C
Ki te tānga-o-taku-manawa rā
  Fm
E hao nei e


[Chorus]
     C                      G
Tiro kau atu ki tahatū-o-te-rangi
        Am             F
Tukuna ahau, kia rapa ahau
    C                        G
I runga i te hau-kahaki ki tawhiti
                  Am           Fm
Ka taea ahau, tukuna ahau, kei huri te tai, ka mau

[Verse 2]
   C                    Dm7                  Am
He tau te iwi nei ki te kāinga, koa ana taku kāinga
F
Ā-muri, ā-mua
C               Dm7                     Am
Ia tangata o te kāinga, ko whai tūranga māna
                    F
'Nā whai taku tūranga
   Am
Aratakina, hikitia rā
      G
Ki te whaia pea ka rarata
      C
Hoi i roto nei, hia kē ana
    Fm
Aue taukuri!


[Chorus 2]
   C                   G
Pīataata rawa te kārohirohi
       Am             F
Tukuna ahau, kia rapa ahau
      C                         G
Ki te tai e kārangaranga mai ki ahau e
       Am         F
Tukuna ahau, ki tawhiti rā, kia pae tata


[Chorus 3]
     C#                     G#
Tiro kau atu ki tahatū-o-te-rangi
        A#m            F#
Tukuna ahau, kia rapa ahau
       C#                                   G#
I runga i te hau-kahaki ki tawhiti
         A#m         F#m
Ka taea ahau, tukuna au!
