Whole Wide World

E                  A     E               A
When I was a young boy, mama she said to me,
           E                  A
"There's only one girl in the world for you,
        E                   A
And she probably lives in Tahiti."
     E                  A                E                A
Or maybe she's in the Bahamas, where the Caribbean Sea is blue,
E                   A               E                        A

I'd go the whole wide world,
                                        A
I'd go the whole wide world just to find her.

                                                      A
I'd go the whole wide world to find out where they hide her.

Why I’m hanging around in the rain out here, trying to think of a girl
        E                               A
Why are my eye’s filling up with these lonely tears, when this
E                     A
girl’s all over this world.
          E                             A       E
Or is she lying on a tropical beach somewhere, underneath the tropical
A     E                         A        E                      A
sun? Hiding away in the heat wave there, hoping that I won’t be long?
