Top Of The World
Dixie Chicks

Hey Guys, I jotted this down when I played the Capo 9 version and it sounded
a little high for me so I decided to do a Capo 2. Play this along with a higher 
capo version and it will sound great. The timing should be almost right on with
this one. 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
     Capo 2
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

                 D
I wished I was smarter
                 A
I wished I was stronger
          Bm                     G
I wished I loved Jesus the way my wife does
                      D                     A
I wished it had been easier instead of any longer
                      Bm                              G
I wished I could have stood where you would have been proud
                  D
That won't happen now
                  A
That won't happen now
          G                                 A
There's a whole lot of singing that's never gonna be heard
     Bm                          G                   D  
Disappearing everyday without so much as a word somehow...
  G                               A
Think I broke the wings off that little song bird
       Bm                     G                     D
She's never gonna fly to the top of the world right now...
          A
Top of the world
                D                   A   
I don't have to answer any of these questions
             Bm                 G
Don't have no God to teach me no lessons
                   D                 A
I come home in the evening sit in my chair
                             Bm
One night they called me for supper
                G
But I never got up 
              D             A
I stayed right there in my chair
            G                                 A                           
There's a whole lot of singing that's never gonna be heard
     Bm                         G                   D  
Disappearing everyday without so much as a word somehow...
  G                               A
Think I broke the wings off that little song bird
       Bm                     G                     D
She's never gonna fly to the top of the world right now...
              D
I wished I'd known you
            A
Wished I'd shown you
           Bm                 G
All of the things I was on the inside
               D                                A
I pretend to be sleeping when you come in in the morning
              Bm
To whisper goodbye 
                  G
Go to work in the rain
             D
I don't know why
           A
Don't know why
       G                          A
Cause everyone's singing we just wanna be heard
       Bm                         G              D
Disappearing everyday without so much as a word somehow...
 G                         A
Wanna grab a hold of that little song bird
 Bm                         G                     D
Take her for a ride to the top of the world right now...

Bm,G
                  Bm
To the top of the world 
                  G
To the top of the world
                  Bm
To the top of the world
                  G
To the top of the world
                  Bm
To the top of the world 
                  G
To the top of the world
                  Bm
To the top of the world
                  G
To the top of the world

Continue Bm,G Fade out
