Sitting on the Roof of the World Chords & Lyrics by Dido
Sitting on the Roof of the World
guitar chords lyrics
A little, sweet, simple song from the new album 'girl who got away'.
Capo 3rd fret
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
Cadd9 G
I climbed a mountain, not knowing that I had
Cadd9 G
thought it was just a road from a to b
Cadd9 G
I took no protection, not much of anything
Cadd9 G
just went as I was
Cadd9 G
Looking in windows and playing songs
Cadd9 G
and knocking on doors
Cadd9 G
I was not scared, I just enjoyed the sights
Cadd9 G
kept myself to myself
Cadd9 G
There I was
Cadd9 G
sitting on the roof of the world
Cadd9 G
There I was, there I was
Cadd9 G
not knowing how I got there or how to leave
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
Cadd9 G
Everyone says I was lucky to have got there
Cadd9 G
as not many can
Cadd9 G
But truth be told I was saved
Cadd9 G
by the love of a good man
Cadd9 G
Who came and got me and bought me down
Cadd9 G
from on up there
Cadd9 G
I'd be lying if I didn't say I missed it now and then
Cadd9 G
but I have no wish to go back there
Cadd9 G
There I was
Cadd9 G
sitting on the roof of the world
Cadd9 G
There I was, with all the gods
Cadd9 G
not knowing how I got there or how to leave
D/F# Em Bm Cadd9
People say "what's so special about being back here
G
with everyone so close"
D/F# Em Bm Cadd9
But that's the point, I don't want to be different
G
I just want to fit in
Cadd9 G
There I was, there I was
Cadd9 G
sitting on the roof of the world
Cadd9 G
There I was, with all the gods
Cadd9 G
not knowing how I got there or how to leave
