VERSE 1:
I was [Bb] down in a [Eb] hole, [Bb] snufflin' like a [Eb] mole
When my [Bb] friend on the [Eb] phone told me [Bb] it's O-[Eb]-Kay [Bb][Eb]
There's a [Bb] place you can [Eb] be, the [Bb] music sets you [Eb] free
Come on [Bb] over and we'll [Eb] do it the Ha-[Bb]-wana [Eb] way [Bb][Eb]
PRE-CHORUS 1: [Bb] Carlos Va-[Eb]-rela, [Bb] Chu Chu Val-[Eb]-des [Bb] Mu'equitos de [Eb] Matanzas, [Bb] Benny [Eb] Mmor
Yeah, [Bb] Reuben Gon-[Eb]-zales, [Bb] what can I [Eb] say? [Bb] Hey, Barbar-[Eb]-ito Torres [F7 open]
CHORUS:
If your [Bb] mind is a [Eb] mess, your [Bb] body's in dis-[Eb]-tress
Catch your [Bb] sorry soul a [Eb] rest the Ha-[Bb]-wana [Eb] way [Bb][Eb]
Throw your [Bb] future to the [Eb] wind, you'll [Bb] find it's no [Eb] sin
Start a [Bb] new way of [Eb] living the Ha-[Bb]-wana [Eb] way [Bb][Eb]
VERSE 2:
So I [Bb] did like she [Eb] said, threw my [Bb] suitcase on the [Eb] bed
Packed my [Bb] Rennies, Pepto-[Eb]-Bismol, Para-[Bb]-ceta-[Eb]-mol [Bb][Eb]
And I'm [Bb] feelin' no [Eb] pain on some [Bb] funky Russian [Eb] plane
Headin' [Bb] down the Carib-[Eb]-bean to for-[Bb]-get it [Eb] all [Bb][Eb]
PRE-CHORUS 2: [Bb] '55 [Eb] Chevvies, [Bb] '65 [Eb] Fords [Bb] Coffee skinned [Eb] chicas on the [Bb] Malecon [Eb] [Bb] Mojitos, [Eb] Haba'os, [Bb] Apa-[Eb]-gon [Bb] Hey coco [Eb] taxi, hang on [F7 open]
BRIDGE:
Gimme [Bb] one more [Eb] day [Bb][Eb]
Babe I [Bb] gotta [Eb] stay [Bb][Eb]
Hear that [Bb] music [Eb] play [Bb][Eb]
The Ha-[Bb]-wana [Eb] way [Bb][Eb][F7 open]
