Whole Wide World Lyrics & Chords By The Wallflowers

When I was a young boy
Mama she said to me:
There's only one girl in the world for you
But she probably lives in Tahiti

I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world just to find her

Or maybe she's in the Bahamas
Where the Caribbean Sea is blue
Weeping away on a tropical night
Because nobody's told her 'bout you

I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world to find out where they hide her
I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world just to find her

Why am I hanging around the rain out here trying to pick up a girl?
Why are my eyes filling up with these lonely tears when there's girls all over the world?
Well is she lying on a tropical beach somewhere?
Underneath the tropical sun
Pining away in a heatwave there
Hoping that I, that I won't be long

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

I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world to find out where they hide her
I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world just to find her
