There's only one girl in the world for you but she probably lives in Tahiti

E                   A                    E                   A
Weeping in a tropical moon lit night because nobody's told about you

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

Why I am hanging around in the rain out here trying to pick up a girl
        E                             A                         E                  A
Why are my eyes filling up with these lonely tears when there's girls all over the world

Is she lying on a tropical beach somewhere underneath the tropical sun
E                A               E                      A

And then in a year or maybe not quiet we'll be sharing the same  next of kin
