Ikua - The Extraordinaires
by Robert Mosolgo
Verse 1
Well [G]I received my [(Em)]father's name and I [C]wear it like a [Eb]pin[D]
He [G]received his f[(Em)]ather's name like his [C]father before h[Eb]im[D]
So I'l[G]l just go on [Em]wearing this [C]around
And [G]show it off in [Em]every single t[C]own[D]
And I'll [G]climb this tree and let my [Em]legs hang free until I [C]find
the [Eb]root of my [D]family line.
(Now walk up the bass line from G to D, then play Eb D)
Verse 2:
Well I may be a city rat but cowboy's in my blood
Ridin round on horseback with a lasso just because
IKUA PURDY
A living breathing legend in his time
And I'll wrap this sandwich up in cellophane until we ride
Into my family's horizon line
Bridge:
[C]He went roaming in [Cm]Wyoming
[G]horseback riding and c[Em]attle roping
[C]he roped that steer in [Cm]record time
[D]they saw him as an outcast till he [D7]showed them how to ride
Ending:
So I say,
[G]I K U A[Em] P U R [C]D Y[D]
[G]A living breathing [C]legend in his [Eb]ti i [D]ime[(G)]
