Intro C#/G# F#
[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
