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