Song Help Request Pineapple Princess? An oldie ;P

I found a cover of this song and I fell in love with it instantly. The chords are easy to see in this video but she has a 6-string ukulele. I want to know how to play it on my 4-string. Help?

You can use the same chord shapes she's using. A six string is basically tuned GCEA and doubled on the A and C course. Those two string are tuned in octave.

Aloha,
You can check out tropical storm hawaii and click local jams and find the lyrics and chords. And I
think trish has an Kamaka 8 stringer where each of the GCEA strings are tuned alike. Oh yeah look
on the drop list under pineapple princess Na Leo....I hope this helps you out....By the way, I had fun too with this one. Annette Funachello has a good version on YOU TUBE too!
Uke onnnnnn

Thank you very much ! Now I can play this whenever I'm bored. ;D

This is an awesomely fun song to play and sing. I just learned it the other night at a hula show, and then saw the cover on YouTube and decided to tab it out. In the Annette Funicello version, the uke is tuned down a half-step. So, in hawaiiansweetroll's version (the YouTube video below), she's singing it a half-step higher than Annette Funicello did. No worries, though. Here's the chords:

Pineapple Princess - by Annette Funicello - covered by hawaiiansweetroll (http://goo.gl/1Uz3S)
F#6 - 4444 | D#min - 6444 | Dm7 - 3333 | A - 2100 | F#maj - 4447 | C#7 - 2322

Intro: F#6 D#min (3 times) (drop to) Dm7 (then) F#6 D#min (3 times) (watch the video for strum pattern)

Chorus:
A
Pineapple Princess, he calls me,
F#maj
Pineapple Princess all day,
C#7
As he plays his ukulele,
F#maj A F#maj
On the hill above the bay.
A
Pineapple Princess, I love you,
F#maj
You're the sweetest girl I've seen,
C#7
Some day we're gonna marry,
F#maj A F#maj
And you'll be my pineapple queen.

A F#maj
I saw a boy on Oahu isle,
C#7 F#maj
Floatin' down the bay on a crocodile.
A F#maj
He waved at me and he swam ashore,
C#7 F#maj
And I knew he'd be mine forevermore.

(Chorus)

A F#maj
He sings his song from banana trees,
C#7 F#maj
He even sings to me on his water skis.
A F#maj
We went skin-divin' and beneath the blue,
C#7 F#maj
He sang and played his ukulele, too.

(Chorus)

A F#maj
We'll settle down in a bamboo hut,
C#7 F#maj
And he will be my own little coconut.
A F#maj
Then we'll be beachcombin' royalty,
C#7 F#maj
On wicky - wicky wacky Waikiki.

END...
A
Pineapple Princess, I love you,
F#maj
You're the sweetest girl I've seen,
C#7
Some day we're gonna marry,
F#maj
And you'll be...
A F#maj C#7 F#maj
my pine-apple.... queen.
