Harry's Music on O`ahu (Kaimuki area) is the #1 source of sheet music for Hawaiian songs. The musicians here say:
"If Harry's doesn't have the sheet music for that song, nobody does."
And best of all, they'll take credit card phone orders:

You might also want to check out "Kings Book of Hawaiian Melodies" (Centerbrook Publishing, dist by Hal Leonard.)
It is wonderful reprint of the 1921 classic, with "100 favorite Hawaiian melodies." The book also comes with a CD featuring 87 of the melodies in very basic solo keyboard style for the reading-challenged. No TAB.
They also publish the "Aloha Collection of Hawaiian Songs," another classic reprint, though from a slightly later era. Mostly hapa haole songs, but it has some gems.
See Andy's "Learning" section for links to TAB sources. Most of the slack key books and videos feature some classic old songs. http://www.taropatch.net/learn.htm
cheers,
