Top of the World Chords & Lyrics by Dixie Chicks
Top of the World
guitar chords lyrics
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.

I wished I was smarter, I wished I was stronger.

I wished I love Jesus, the way my wife does.

Where you would have been proud,

That won't happen now

That won't happen now.

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.

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.

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.

I come home in the evening, sit in my chair.

One night they called me for supper

But I never got up,

I stayed right there in my chair.

There's a whole lot of singing that's never gonna be heard

She's never gonna fly to the top of the world right now.

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.

I don't know why, don't know why.

Cause everyone's singing, we just wanna be heard.

Disappearing every day without so much as a word somehow.

Wanna grab a hold of that little song bird,

Take her for a ride to the top of the world right now.

To the top of the world.
