[G] When I was a [C] young boy
My [G] mama said to [C] me
"There's [G] only one girl in the [C] world for you
But she [G] probably lives in Ta-[C]hiti."
[G] I'd go the whole wide world,
Go the whole wide world just to [C] find her

Or [G] maybe she's in the Ba-[C]hamas
Where the [G] Caribbean Sea is [C] blue
[G] Weeping in the tropical [C] moonlit night
Because [G] nobody's told her 'bout [C] you

I'd go the [G] whole wide world
Go the whole wide world just to [C] find her
I'd go the [G] whole wide world
Go the whole wide world
[G] To find out where they [C] hide her
I'd go the [G] whole wide world
Go the whole wide world just to [C] find her

Why am I [G] hanging around in the [C] rain out here
[G] Trying to pick up a [C] girl
Why are my [G] eyes filling up with these [C] lonely tears
When there are [G] girls all over the [C] world

Is she [G] lying on a tropical [C] beach somewhere
Under-[G]neath a tropical [C] sun
[G] Pining away in a [C] heat wave there
[G] Hoping that I won't be [C] long

I should be [G] lying on that sun-soaked [C] beach with her
[G] Caressing her warm, brown [C] skin
And [G] then in a year or [C] maybe not quite
We'll be [G] sharing the same next of [C] kin

I'd go the [G] whole wide world
Go the whole wide world just to [C] find her.
I'd go the [G] whole wide world
Go the whole wide world
To find out where they [C] hide her

I'd go the [G] whole wide world
Go the whole wide world just to [C] find her
I'd go the [G] whole wide world
Go the whole wide world
[G] To find out where they [C] hide her
[G] Hey!
