Thread Name: Chords Req: Blue Hawaii
Subject: RE: Chords Req: Blue Hawaii
Just to avoid confusion, Indiana University Sheet Music Collections lists TWO songs called BLUE HAWAII:

BLUE HAWAII
Abel Baer, Irving Caesar, Ira Schuster, 1929
First Line: Those golden days of bliss, those nights I learned to kiss,...
Chorus First Line: Dreaming of the blue skies, bluer than the sea,...

BLUE HAWAII
Leo Robin, Ralph Rainger, 1937
First Line: Perfume in the air and rare flowers ev'rywhere,...
Chorus First Line: Night and you and blue Hawaii, the night is heavenly...

The second one is the one Elvis sang in the 1961 film, "Blue Hawaii."

(Who knew it was older than the film?)
