TITLE: Top of the World
Lyrics and Chords


Such a feelin's coming over me 
There is wonder in most every thing I see 
Not a cloud in the sky, got the sun in my eyes 
And I won't be surprised if it's a dream 

/ C GF C - / Em DmG C - / F G Em A / Dm Fm G Gsus4 / 

Everything I want the world to be 
Is now coming true especially for me 
And the reason is clear, it's because you are here 
You're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen 

{Refrain}
I'm on the top of the world looking down on creation 
And the only explanation I can find 
Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around 
Your love's put me at the top of the world 

/ C - F - / Em DmG C - / F G C F / C DmG C - /

Something in the wind has learned my name 
And it's telling me that things are not the same 
In the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze
There's a pleasin' sense of happiness for me 

There is only one wish on my mind 
When this day is through I hope that I will find 
That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me 
All I need will be mine if you are here 

{Refrain twice}
