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