                     F#          D#m
I've been around the world, hey hey.
                     G#m         C#
I've been around the world, hey hey.

       D#m                                 B
In the kitchen, where I'm cooking what is good
for me,
C#               A#m
spices from the globe.
D#m                       B
Little by little, is the finest meal,
      C#                A#m            B
it's half the type for hope, come and see.
                        G#m           C#
You mix it all together in your dreams.
                     A#m              B
Ingredients from the seven seas, and I,
                           G#m           A#m
I'm realizing things ain't what they seem.
                       B                        C#
That's the riddle of it, that's the spirit of it,
that's the power of life.

Chorus:
                     F#
I've been around the world, round the world,
                 D#m
and I've seen it all, seen it all.
                     G#m
I've been around the world, round the world,
                            C#
'cause the wind will always rise or fall.
                     F#
I've been around the world, round the world,
                D#m
and I wanted to see, see it all.
                   G#m
I've been the only girl, round the world,
                  C#
all surrounded by mystery.

In the living room I'm cleaning up from top to floor
The place I love the most
The wall is covered up with all my souvenirs
I've got from coast to coast - come and see
You mix it all together in your dreams
Ingredients from the Seven Seas and
I'm realizing things ain't what they seem
That's the riddle of it
That's the spirit of it
That's the power of life

Chorus:
I've been around the world Round the world
And I've seen it all Seen it all
I've been around the world Round the world
The sun will always rise and fall
I've been around the world Round the world
And I want you to see Seen it all
I've been only girl Round the world
All surrounded by mystery

                                          B
I'm still coming around, I keep chasing dreams.
                                F#
Girl, I keep coming around, hey hey.
                                     G#m
I keep coming around and I can never stop.
                                             C#sus4
Girl, I keep coming around, 'cause if I do a lot.
                    C#         D#m
Around, around and around the world.

Chorus:
I've been around the world Round the world
Hey, hey Seen it all
I've been around the world Round the world
All surrounded by mystery
I've been around the world Round the world
And I've seen it all Seen it all
I've been around the world Round the world
The sun will always rise and fall
Round the world
