Top of the World

Patty Griffin

Capo 9

Intro: G D Em C

I wished I was (G) smarter

Wished I was (D) stronger

I wished I (Em) loved jesus

The way the my (C) wife does

I wished it'd been (G) easier

Instead of any (D) longer

I wished I could've (Em) stood

Where you would've been (C) proud

That won't happen (G) now

That won't happen (D) now

There's a whole lot of (C) singing

That ain't (D) gonna be heard

Disap(Em)pearing every day

Without so (C) much as a word

Somehow (G)

I think I (C) broke the wings

Off a little (D) songbird

And she's never (Em) gonna fly

To the top of the (C) world

How (G)

To the top of the (D) world

I don't have to (G) answer

Any of these (D) questions

Don't have no (Em) guide to

Teach me no (C) lessons

I come home in the (G) evening

Sit in my (D) chair

One night they called me for (Em) supper

But I never got (C) up

I stayed right (G) there

In my (D) chair

There's a whole lot of (C) singing

That ain't (D) gonna be heard

Disap(Em)pearing every day

Without so (C) much as a word

Somehow (G)

I think I (C) broke the wings

Off a little (D) songbird

And she's never (Em) gonna fly

To the top of the (C) world

How (G)

To the top of the (D) world (Em) (C)

I wished I'd had (G) known you

Wished I had (D) shown you

All of the (Em) things I

Was on the (C) inside

But I'd pretend to be (G) sleeping

When you'd come in in the (D) morning

To whisper (Em) goodbye

Go work at the (C) rain

I don't know (G) why

Don't know (D) why

Cause (C) everyone's singing

We just wanna (D) be heard

Disap(Em)pearing every day

Without so (C) much as a word

So how? (G)

Gonna (C) grab a hold

Of that little (D) songbird

And take her (Em) for a ride

To the top of the (C) world

Right (G) now

To the top of the (D) world Em C Em C Em C
