[Verse]
C/G F C/G F
When I was a young boy, my mama said to me
C/G F
There's only one girl in the world for you
C/G F
And she's probably in Tahiti
C/G F
Or maybe she's in the Bahamas
C/G F
Where the Caribbean Sea is blue
C/G F
We've been in a tropical moonlight night
C/G F
Cause nobody taught her 'bout you
[Chorus]
C/G
I'd go the whole wide world, I'd go the whole wide world
F
Just to find her
C/G
I'd go the whole wide world, I'd go the whole wide world
F
To find out where they hide her
[Verse]
C/G F
Why am I hanging around in the rain out here
C/G F
Trying to pick up a girl
C/G F
Why are my eyes filling up with these lonely tears
C/G F
When there's girls all over the world
C/G F
Is she lying on a tropical beach somewhere
C/G F
Underneath the tropical sun
C/G F
Pining away in a heat wave there
C/G F
Hoping that I won't be long
C/G F
I should be lying on that sun soaked beach with her
C/G F
Caressing her warm brown skin
C/G F
Then in a year or maybe not quite
C/G F
We'll be sharing the same next of kin
[Chorus]
C/G
I'd go the whole wide world, I'd go the whole wide world
F
Just to find her
C/G
I'd go the whole wide world, I'd go the whole wide world
F
To find out where they hide her
C/G
I'd go the whole wide world, I'd go the whole wide world
F
Just to find her
C/G
I'd go the whole wide world, I'd go the whole wide world
F
To find out where they hide her
