Hi Bill!
I checked online at a thousand different places. most seem to copy
each other's stuff, all of them are wrong, and dont have the entire
song. I figured this out for you since I couldn't find it anywhere.
It's not as simple as it sounds. First, they don't necessarily follow
the scales. Second, they change the key after each chorus. each
chorus is different, although similar. I kept having to slow it down
till I got it. The little keyboard and flute or whatever in the
background is playing chords and notes that also give a false
impression of what's going on with the guitar, too. Ugh! Anyway,
here is what I got. If anyone notices errors and wants to make
corrections, that would be cool, but I think this is pretty darn
close.
"Hawaii Five O" as played by the Ventures:
Verse 1:

at slow speed to hear it right.)

This part might be easier at 12th fret position.
I think the little H part might be a mistake he did, but kept,
as it's not very noticeable.

(this part might be scrambled. I can play it, and tried to write it.
The two 9's next to each other might be just an error on his part,
as the 2nd one isnt very loud.)
when it lands on the 12th fret, it changes key again.
