Was in the (G)spring, one sunny day
My sweetheart (C)left me, Lord, she went a-(G)way
Now she's (G)gone, and I don't (D)worry
Woo, I'm (G)sitting on (D)top of the (G)world

Call me (G)up from down in Al Paso
She said "Come back, (C)daddy, you know I need you (G)so"
Now she's (G)gone and I don't (D)worry
Lord, I'm (G)sitting on (D)top of the (G)world

Well, I worked all a-(G)summer, and then I worked on the farm
Now I'm gonna take (C)Christmas in my over-(G)alls
And now she's (G)gone, gone and I don't (D)worry
Lord, I'm (G)sitting on (D)top of the (G)world

If you don't like my (G)peaches a-don't you shake my tree
A get out of my (C)orchard, a-let my peaches (G)be
Now she's (G)gone, and I don't (D)worry
Woo, I’m (G)sitting on (D)top of the (G)world

Ah, don't you come here (G)runnin' holding out your hand
I'm gonna get me a (C)woman just like you got your (G)man
And now she's (G)gone and I don't (D)worry
Lord, I'm (G)sitting on (D)top of the (G)world

Well, I never never (G)had a-one woman at a time
Lord, I always (C)had seven, eight or (G)nine 
And now she's (G)gone, gone and I don't (D)worry
Lord, I'm (G)sitting on (D)top of the (G)world
