Top Of The World

                                  C                                  G
    I wished I was smarter, I wished I was stronger,
                              Am                          F
    I wished I loved Jesus, the way my wife does.
                                  C                                G
    I wish it had been easier, instead of any longer,
                                         Am                                                    F
    I wished I could have stood, where you would have been proud,
                                         C                                    G
    but that won't happen now, that won't happen now.

                    F                                               G
There's a whole lot of singing, that's never gonna be heard,
          Am                                           F                                   C
disappearing every day, without so much as a word - somehow.
    F                                            G
I think I broke the wings of that little songbird,
          Am                               F                                 C                       G
she's never gonna fly, to the top of the world, right now, top of the world.

                             C                                 G
    I don' t have to answer, any of these questions,
                           Am                             F
    don't have no guide to teach me no lessons.
                                    C                             G
    I come home in the evening, sit in my chair,
                                                 Am                                F
    one night they called me for supper, but I never got up,
                            C                 G
    I stayed right there in my chair.

                    F                                               G
There's a whole lot of singing, that's never gonna be heard,
          Am                                           F                                  C
disappearing every day, without so much as a word, somehow.
    F                                            G
I think I broke the wings of that little songbird,
          Am                               F                                 C
she's never gonna fly, to the top of the world, right now.

                            C                                 G
    I wished I'd known you, wished I'd shown you,
                    Am                          F
    all of the things, I was on the inside.
                                  C                                                    G
    I´d pretend to be sleeping, when you come in in the morning,
                              Am                              F
    to whisper goodbye, go to work in the rain,
                          C                        G
    I don't know why, don't know why.

             F                                          G
Cause everyone´s singing, we just wanna be heard,
          Am                                            F                                 C
disappearing every day, without so much as a word, somehow.
   F                                     G
Gonna grab a hold of that little songbird,
Am                                    F                                 C
take her for a ride, to the top of the world, right now.

    Am - F  (4x)    Am       F
                           Oh !     Oh !
                                Am                                 F
    To the top of the world, to the top of the world. (4x)
Am - F  (8x)
