[Intro 1]
[C][F]
[G][F][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]If you love somebody[F]
Better tell them while they're here [G]'cause
They just may run away from [F]you
[C]You'll never know quite when, wel[F]l
Then again it just depends [G]on
How long a time is left for [F]you
[C]I've had the highest mountai[F]ns
I've had the deepest riv[G]er
You can have it all but life keeps [F]movin'
[Am]Now take it in but don't look down
'Cause I'm [G]on top of the world,

[Chorus 1]
[F]ay
I'm on top of the [C]world, ay
Waitin' on this for a [G]while now
Payin' my dues to the [Dm]dirt
I've been waitin' to [F]smile, ay
Been holdin' it in for a [C]while, ay
Take you with me [G]if I can
Been dreaming of this since a [Dm]child
I'm on top of the [C]world

[Verse 2]
[C]I've tried to cut these corner[F]s
Tried to take the easy way [G]out
I kept on fallin' short of [F]somethin'
[C]I could have gave up then but[F]
Then again I couldn't have [G]'cause
I've traveled all this way for [F]somethin'
[Am]I take it in but don't look down
'Cause I'm [G]on top of the world,

[Chorus 2]
[F]ay
I'm on top of the [C]world, ay
Waitin' on this for a [G]while now
Payin' my dues to the [Dm]dirt
I've been waitin' to [F]smile, ay
Been holdin' it in for a [C]while, ay
Take you with me [G]if I can
Been dreaming of this since a [Dm]child

[Interlude 1]
I'm on top of the world
[C]Oh woah, oh, oh
I'm on top of the world
Oh woah, oh
'Cause I'm [G]on top of the world,

[Chorus 3]
[F]ay
I'm on top of the [C]world, ay
Waitin' on this for a [G]while now
Payin' my dues to the [Dm]dirt
I've been waitin' to [F]smile, ay
Been holdin' it in for a [C]while, ay
Take you with me [G]if I can
Been dreaming of this since a [Dm]child
I'm on top...

[Bridge 1]
And I [F]know it's hard when you're falling down
And it's a [C]long way up
when you hit the ground
Get [G]up now, get up
Get [Dm]up now (I'm on top...)
And I [F]know that it's hard
when you're falling down
And it's a [C]long way up
when you hit the ground
Get [G]up now, get up
Get [Dm]up now

[Chorus 4]
'Cause I'm on top of the [F]world, ay
I'm on top of the [C]world, ay
Waitin' on this for a [G]while now
Payin' my dues to the [Dm]dirt
I've been waitin' to [F]smile, ay
Been holdin' it in for a [C]while, ay
Take you with me [G]if I can
Been dreaming of this since a [Dm]child

[Outro 1]
I'm on top of the world
