CAPO 9
Tabbed by: Emrldeyzs

INTRO: G  D Dsus D  Em  C 

VERSE:
               G                       D Dsus D
I wished I was smarter, I wished I was stronger
             Em                      C 
I wished I'd loved jesus, The way my wife does
                   G                      D  Dsus D
I wished it'd been easier, Instead of any longer
                    Em                             C   
I wished I could've stood, Where you would've been proud
                  G                      D  Dsus D
That won't happen now, That won't happen now 

CHORUS:
          C                                 D
There's a whole lot of singing that's never gonna be heard
     Em                            C                   G   
Disappearing every day, Without so much as a word, Somehow 
      C                                D
And I think I broke the wings off that little songbird
      Em                     C                 G
She's never gonna fly to the top of the world, now 
                  D  Dsus D      
To the top of the world 

VERSE:
                    G                  D  Dsus D
I don't have to answer ,Any of these questions
              Em                   C 
Don't have no guide to teach me no lessons
                   G                  D  Dsus D
I come home in the evening, Sit in my chair
                             Em       
One night they called me for supper
                C            G  
But I never got up, I stayed right there
      D  Dsus D     
In my chair

CHORUS:
          C                                 D
There's a whole lot of singing that's never gonna be heard
     Em                            C                   G   
Disappearing every day, Without so much as a word, Somehow 
      C                                D
And I think I broke the wings off that little songbird
      Em                     C                 G
She's never gonna fly to the top of the world, now 
           D  Dsus D      Em    C  
To the top of the world, Oooh  ooohh
     
VERSE:
                 G                         D  Dsus D
I wished I'd had known you, I wished I had shown you
           Em                  C
All of the things I was on the inside 
                      G         
But I'd pretend to be sleeping 
                          D  Dsus D
When you'd come in in the morning
           Em                         C
To whisper goodbye and go work at the rain
             G               D  Dsus D
I don't know why, Don't know why

CHORUS:

      C                          D
Cause everyone's singing we just wanna be heard
     Em                            C                   G   
Disappearing every day, without so much as a word, Somehow 
      C                         D 
And I wanna grab a hold of that little songbird
    Em                         C    
And take her for a ride to the top of the world
      G                      D  Dsus D
Right now, To the top of the world 

   Em        C  
Whoaaaa ohhhhhhhhh
                  Em  
To the top of the world 
                  C
To the top of the world 
                  Em 
To the top of the world
                  C
To the top of the world  
                  Em  
To the top of the world

I know this is really capo'd high so for those of you who don't have a cut away just take it down to 7 in the key of A.
I really like playing it on 9
