From the Pixar Short "Lava" for the movie "Inside Out"
So these chords with work for both guitar on ukulele. Originally it's played on the uke.
But either way it works.
The strumming pattern changes throughout the song so listen to the video to see where
it speeds up or slows
down

C G
A long long time ago, there was a volcano
F C G
Living all alone, in the middle of the sea
C G
He sat high above his bay, watching all the couples play
F C G
And wishing that, he had someone too
C G F
And from his lava came, this song of hope that he sang out-loud everyday
C G
For years and years
[Chorus]
F C
I have a dream, I hope will come true,
G 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 G C
Will send me someone to la-va
C G
Years singing all alone, turned his lava into stone
F C G
Until he was on the brink of extinction
C G
But little did he know, that living in the sea below
F C G
Another volcano was listening to his song
C G
Every day she heard his tune, her lava grew and grew
F C G
Because she believed his song was meant for her
C G
Now she was so ready, to meet him above the sea
F C G
And he sang his song of hope for the last time
[Chorus]
F C
I have a dream, I hope will come true,
G 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 G C
Will send me someone to la-va
C G
Rising from the sea below, stood a lovely volcano
F C G
Looking all around but she could not see him
C G
He tried to sing to let her know that she was not there alone
F C G
But with no lava his, song was all gone
C G
He filled the sea with his tears, and watched his dreams disappear as
F C G
She remembered what his song meant to her
[Chorus]
F C
I have a dream, I hope will come true,
G 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 G C
Will send me someone to la-va
C G
Oh they were so happy to finally meet above the sea
F C G
And all together now their lava grew and grew
C G
No longer there alone with Aloha as their new home
F C G
And when you visit them, this is what they sing
[Chorus]
F C
I have a dream, I hope will come true,
G C
That you’ll grow old with me, and I’ll grow old with you
F C
We thank the earth, sea, and sky we been to
F G C
I la-va you
F G C
I la-va you
F G C
I la-va you
