_ _ _ [E] When I was [A] a young boy, [E] my mama said [A] to me, _ _ [E] there's only one girl [A] in the world for you.
[E] She probably lives [A] in Tahiti.
_ I call [E] her White Whale, I call her White Whale, just a [Am] minor. _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[E] Or maybe she's in the [A] Bahamas, _ [E] where the Caribbean Sea [A] is blue. _ _
[E] Weeping in a tropical _ moonlit night, [E] because nobody's told [A] about you. _
[E] I call her White Whale, I call her White Whale, [A] just a minor.
I call [E] her White Whale, I call her White Whale, just a minor.
_ _ [A] _
I call [E] her White Whale, I call her White Whale, just [A] a minor.
_ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ I [E] am laying around in [A] the rain half a year, dying to pick up [A] a girl.
While [E] my heart's filling up with [A] tears, my heart made tears, [E] because girls all over [A] the world.
But [E] is she lying on a tropical [A] beach somewhere, [E] _
underneath the tropical [A] sun?
_ _ [E] _
Hiding away [A] in a deep wave there, [E]
hoping the time [A] won't be long.
I [E] feel bad lying on that sun [A]-stuffed beach with her, [E]
caressing her warm [A] brown skin.
_ _ [E]
Then in a year [A] or two, maybe not quite, [E] we'll be sharing the same [A] best opinion.
_ [E] I call her White Whale, I call her White Whale, [A] just a minor.
_ I call [E] her White Whale, I call her White Whale, just a minor.
_ [A] _
I call [E] her White Whale, I call her White Whale, just a [A] minor.
_ I call [E] her White Whale, I call her White Whale, just a [A] minor.
_ _ Yeah!
[E] _ _ _ [A]
Oh my God!
