Moana,
D G
Make way, make way!
D
Moana, it's time you knew
D
The village of Motunui is
G A
All you need
D
The dancers are practicing
D G
They dance to an ancient song
D
Who needs a new song?
G A D
This old one's all we need
D
This tradition is our mission
D G
And Moana, there's so much to do
D
Don't trip on the taro root
G A
That's all you need
D
We share everything we make
D G
We joke and we weave our baskets
D
The fishermen come back from the sea
G A
I wanna see

Bm
Don't walk away

Moana, stay on the ground now

Our people will need a chief
D
And there you are
Bm
There comes a day
D
When you're gonna look around
G
And realize happiness is
G A
Where you are
[Verse]
D
Consider the coconut
Consider its tree
D
We use each part of the coconut
G A
That's all we need
D
We make our nets from the fibers
The water is sweet inside
D G
We use the leaves to build fires
A D
We cook up the meat inside
D
Consider the coconuts
The trunks and the leaves
D G A
The island gives us what we need
A
And no one leaves
[Chorus]
Bm
That's right, we stay
D
We're safe and we're well provided
Bm
And when we look to the future
D
There you are
Bm
You'll be okay
D
In time you'll learn just as I did
G
You must find happiness right
G A
Where you are

I like to dance with the water
The undertow and the waves
The water is mischievous
Ha! I like how it misbehaves
The village may think I'm crazy
Or say that I drift too far
But once you know what you like, well
G A D
There you are
D
You are your father's daughter
D
Stubbornness and pride
G
Mind what he says but remember
A
You may hear a voice inside
D
And if the voice starts to whisper
D
To follow the farthest star
G
Moana, that voice inside is
A
Who you are

We make our nets from the fibers

The village believes in us
The village believes
D G A
The island gives us what we need

And no one leaves
[Chorus]

So here I'll stay

My home, my people beside me
Bm
And when I think of tomorrow

There we are

I'll lead the way

I'll have my people to guide me

We'll build our future together
