here are the guitar chords for top of the world .
the other tab is totally correct but if you’re a guy you’ll find this song pretty high to sing .
with the chords like this there is a lot more room to shift the capo down .
i like playing it with the capo on 3 or 5 , but the original song is capo 7 .
tuning : standard – capo 7
A E
i wished i was smarter , i wished i was stronger .
F#m D
i wished i love jesus , the way my wife does .
A E
i wished it had been easier , instead of any longer .
F#m
i wished i could have stood
D
where you would have been proud ,
A
that won’t happen now
E
that won’t happen now .
chorus :
D E
there’s a whole lot of singing that’s never gonna be heard ,
F#m D A
disappearing everyday without so much as a word somehow .
D E
think i broke the wings off that little song bird ,
F#m D A
she’s never gonna fly to the top of the world right now .
E
top of the world .
A E
i don’t have to answer any of these questions .
F#m D
don’t have no god to teach me no lessons .
A E
i come home in the evening , sit in my chair .
F#m
one night they called me for supper
D
but i never got up ,
A E
i stayed right there in my chair .
D E
there’s a whole lot of singing that’s never gonna be heard
F#m D A
disappearing everyday without so much as a word somehow .
D E
think i broke the wings off that little song bird ,
F#m D A
she’s never gonna fly to the top of the world right now .
A E
i wished i’d a known you , wished i’d a shown you ,
F#m D
all of the things i was on the inside .
A E
i’d pretend to be sleeping , when you come in in the morning
F#m D
to whisper good – bye , go to work in the rain .
A E
i don’t know why , don’t know why .
D E
cause everyone’s singing , we just wanna be heard .
F#m D A
disappearing every day without so much as a word somehow .
D E
wanna grab a hold of that little song bird ,
F#m D A
take her for a ride to the top of the world right now .
F#m D x4
F#m D
whoa . whoa .
F#m
to the top of the world .
D x4
to the top of the world .
F#m D repeat to end
