Top Of The World

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

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

                     C             
    I don' t have to answer, any of
        G
 these questions,

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

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

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

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

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