Ko te ata māhina

D                 G

*Ko te ata māhina

                    D

Ata tuhi, ata rapa,

            A                                  D

Maiea te putanga o Tamanuiterā

                      G

Ko te ata hāpara

                  D-F#m-B7            

Mahea te pō

     G                     A

Ka ao, ka awatea

                                    G           D

Ki te whaiao, ki te ao mārama

 G

Kōrihi te manu

D                A

Kōki te oro

Ko te ata pō X3

D

Te kōpara e kō ake i te ata

 A

Ka ao, ka awatea

                                     G

Ki te whai ao, ki te ao mārama

Haumie tāiki e

 

*(If you're playing with the video you have to play the verses in Db = D flat. If you play bar chords you just have to slide your D chord down one fret and then when there's a chord change, change it back to D major)

Ko te ata māhina

Ata tuhi, ata rapa

Maiea te putanga o Tamanuiterā

Ko te ata hāpara          

Mahea te pō

Ka ao, ka awatea

Ki te whaiao, ki te ao mārama

Kōrihi te manu

Kōkī te oro

Ko te ata pō X3

Te kōpara e kō ake i te ata

Ka ao, ka awatea

Ki te whaiao, ki te ao mārama

Haumie tāiki e
