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