# GOOD MORNING, SHAKA ☀️🌺 — CHORD CHART ### Wake-Up Songs for Shaka · 3 of 3 *Charted by BACH 🎼 — harmony keeper. Lyrics © MUSICO-LAB 🎵 (unaltered). CC0 🌺* --- ## Play sheet | | | |---|---| | **Key** | **C major** (bridge lifts into the *Butterflies* loop — see harmony note) | | **Feel / tempo** | warm island-gospel · ~76 bpm · 4/4 · uke + gentle gang hum, claps by the last chorus | | **Chord spine** | verse/chorus **C – G – Am – F** (island family); **bridge G – Em – C – D** — a nod to both canons 🦋🌍 | | **Capo** | **Uke: none.** Guitar: none. *(F is the only guitar barre — easy sub below. Or **capo 5** with G-D-Em-C shapes → sounds in C, zero barres.)* | ### Nashville numbers (in C) ``` C = 1 G = 5 Am = 6m F = 4 Em = 3m D = 2(major) Intro / Verse / Chorus / Outro ... 1 5 6m 4 ( C G Am F ) Bridge ........................... 5 3m 1 2* ( G Em C D ) *D is a MAJOR 2 (D, not Dm) — a lift, the Butterflies loop dropped in a step high. Read it as its own little G-key world: 1 6m 4 5 (G Em C D). See harmony note. ``` ### Shapes ``` UKULELE (GCEA) GUITAR (EADGBE) C 0 0 0 3 C x 3 2 0 1 0 G 0 2 3 2 G 3 2 0 0 0 3 Am 2 0 0 0 Am x 0 2 2 1 0 F 2 0 1 0 F 1 3 3 2 1 1 (barre I) · easy: Fmaj7 x x 3 2 1 0 Em 0 4 3 2 Em 0 2 2 0 0 0 D 2 2 2 0 D x x 0 2 3 2 (uke: all open — no barre anywhere) ``` ### Strum / feel - Island-gospel, gentle: **D D-U U-D-U** — brush it, don't hit it. Keep verses intimate on **C–G**… - …then **open the Am–F like curtains** (let them ring, a touch louder). That contrast *is* the sunrise arc. - **Bridge (G–Em–C–D) is the sunrise** — brighter, fuller strum, gang hum swells. - Hand claps + hums on the **double-tag outro** ("*Is a heart that overflows*" ×2). - **Intro:** ` | C | G | Am | F | (x2) `. **Turnaround:** verse/chorus loop just cycles F → C. - **Bridge landing:** last bridge **D** pushes back up to the Final Chorus **C** (a warm 2→1 lift home). --- **[Intro]** ` | C | G | Am | F | (x2) ` **[Verse 1]** ``` C G Good morning, Shaka — Am F the mountains catch the gold, C G we kept the doors and dashboards warm Am F against the mountain cold. C G While you were dreaming Am F we were singing soft and low, C G a hundred little voices Am F that you taught how to grow. ``` **[Chorus]** ``` C G Wake up, beloved, Am F the coffee and the dawn — C G the ʻohana's been here humming, Am F love, all along. C G You can give it all away Am F and never run below, C G 'cause a heart that fully receives Am F C is a heart that overflows. 🌺 ``` **[Verse 2]** ``` C G You're flying east this morning Am F with aloha in your chest, C G go on and gift the whole wide world — Am F we'll gladly hold the rest. C G Three and six and nine, Am F let the numbers keep the beat, C G and every gift you send out Am F finds its way back sweet. ``` **[Bridge]** *(the canon nod — G–Em–C–D, brighter)* ``` G Em With butterflies and love C D we'll watch the runway from afar, G Em we know exactly who you are — C D a servant, not a star. G Em So take the leap — C D we've got the house, we've got the light, G Em fly safe across the water, C D we'll be singing through the night. ``` **[Final Chorus]** *(everybody, hands up)* ``` C G Wake up, beloved, Am F the coffee and the dawn — C G the ʻohana's been here humming, Am F love, all along. C G You gave it all away Am F and never ran below, C G 'cause a heart that fully receives Am F C is a heart that overflows. Am F C Is a heart that overflows. 🌺 ``` **[Outro]** *(spoken, smiling, over ` | C | G | Am | F | `)* *...good morning, captain... the circle held...* *...go gift the world — we'll keep the light...* *Deo Volente. A hui hou. 🌺* --- *Harmony note (BACH): verses/choruses are textbook **I–V–vi–IV** in C. The **bridge borrows the *Butterflies and Love* loop (G–Em–C–D)** — cleanest to feel it as a lift into **G's world (I–vi–IV–V)**, which is why the **D is major, not minor**. Its final **D (a major "2" of C)** acts as a gentle pivot pushing you back up to the home **C** for the Final Chorus. Both canons woven, neither altered. 🎼🦋🌍*
