Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

x2

  Out of the corner

  Of my tired eyes, I'm not surprised

  That it's now a quarter past

Too late, nothing new, it's no case

  Out of the ordinary

  I'm so very wrapped around your finger this time

  Oh, won't you give me awhile to unwind?

You're on top of the world

  And I'm just waiting, making up your excuse

  You say that love's tough, are you sure?

  Ain't it just a piece of cake to make me look like a fool?

You're on top of the world if you're thinking

  I've been blinking while you're breaking the rules

  Don't that make you the fool?

  You're on top of the world

  You're sitting on top of the world

  You're like a splinter

  You're just killing me slowly from inside

  The piercing winter is so much

More inviting than the stare in your eyes

  One heavy cinderblock, like a rock

  You're just staying, weighing, breaking me down

  I'm crying out, you don't hear me, you don't hear a sound

You're on top of the world

  And I'm just waiting, making up your excuse

  You say that love's tough, are you sure?

  Ain't it just a piece of cake to make me look like a fool?

You're on top of the world if you're thinking

  I've been blinking while you're breaking the rules

  Don't that make you the fool?

  You're on top of the world

  Hope I've lost enough to win you back your prize

  To put you up sky high, get your pride back to its familiar place

And I hope it's cost enough of my dear, precious time

  To lift your spirits, spark your smile, oh

On top of the world

  And I'm just waiting, making up your excuse

Well love's tough, are you sure?

  Ain't it just a piece of cake to make me look like a fool?

On top of the world if you're thinking

  I've been blinking while you're breaking the rules

  Don't that make you the fool?

On top of the world

  And I'm just waiting, making up your excuse

  You say that love's tough, are you sure?

  Ain't it just a piece of cake to make me look like a fool?

On top of the world if you're thinking

  I've been blinking while you're breaking the rules

  Don't that make you the fool?

  Don't that make you the fool?

  You're on top of the world

  You're sitting on top of the world

You're on top of the world

You're on top of the world
