Someone to Lava - Jim Murphy (Pixar Short Film)
[Intro]
| C | % | G7 | % | F | % | C | G7 | % |
[Verse 1]
C G7
A long long time ago, there was a volcano.
F C G7
Living all alone, in the middle of the sea.
C G7
He sat high above his bay, watching all the couples play,
F C G7
and wishing that, he had someone too.
C G7 F
And from his lava came this song of hope that he sang out loud every day,
C G7
for years and years.
[Chorus]
F C
I have a dream I hope will come true,
G7 C
that you’re here with me and I’m here with you.
F C
I wish that the earth, sea, the sky up above
F G7 C
will send me someone to lava.
[Verse 2]
C G7
Years of singing all alone turned his lava into stone,
F C G7
until he was on the brink of extinction.
C G7
But little did he know that living in the sea below
F C G7
another volcano was listening to his song.
C G7
Every day she heard his tune. Her lava grew and grew
F C G7
because she believed his song was meant for her.
C G7
Now she was so ready to meet him above the sea
F C G7
as he sang his song of hope for the last time.
[Chorus]
F C
I have a dream I hope will come true,
G7 C
that you’re here with me and I’m here with you.
F C
I wish that the earth, sea, the sky up above
F G7 C N.C.
will send me someone to lava.
[Verse 3]
C G7
Rising from the sea below stood a lovely volcano
F C G7
looking all around but she could not see him.
C G7
He tried to sing to let her know that she was not there alone,
F C G7
but with no lava his song was all gone.
C G7
He filled the sea with his tears and watched his dreams disappear
F C G7
as she remembered what his song meant to her.
[Chorus]
(Female)
F C
I have a dream I hope will come true,
G7 C
that you’re here with me and I’m here with you.
F C
I wish that the earth, sea and the sky up above
F G7 C
will send me someone to lava.
[Verse 4]
C G7
Oh, they were so happy to finally meet above the sea,
F C G7
all together now their lava grew and grew.
C G7
No longer are they all alone with Aloha as their new home,
F C G7
and when you visit them, this is what they sing…
[Chorus]
(Female + Male)
F C
I have a dream I hope will come true.
G7
(Female) That you'll grow old with me,
C
(Male) and I'll grow old with you.
F C
We thank the earth, sea, and the sky we thank too.
F G7 C
I lava YOU!
F G7 C
I lava YOU!
F G7 C
I lava YOU!

I think every other G7 in the verses should be a normal G in the pattern, like:
C G F C G7
C G F C G7
etc.

Capo on 3rd fret sounds closer to a ukulele. i have a deeper voice so it was also easier for me to sing along with it on the 3rd or 4th fret. (3rd sounds better)
Also play the G7 as a bar chord on the 3rd fret. makes the transition easier and sounds cleaner.
all in all awesome job this is a fun catchy tune thats perfect for kiddo's! well done!

2 points:
* It would be good to mark the point (Just before: "Rising from the sea below stood a lovely volcano") where the girl volcano comes bursting out of the sea. If there were children around, this could be a very fun, animated little bit.
* The female verse is missing and some of the words around the ending are not quite right.
Here are some more accurate ones, drawn from this page:

Female Voice:
I have a dream.
I hope it will come true.
You are here with me.
And I am here with you.
I wish that the earth, sea, and sky up above
would send me someone to lava.
Main Voice:
Oh they were so happy
to finally meet above the sea.
All together now their lava grew and grew.
No longer they are they all alone
with **Aloha** as their new home.
And when you go and visit them this is what they sing:
(TOGETHER)
I have a dream I hope it would come true.
That you will grow old with me, an I will grow old with you.
We thank the earth, sea, and sky we thank too.
I lava YOU! I lava YOU! I LAVA YOU!
