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