Dixie Chicks- Top of the World Pretty simple chord progression and a great song, look at the bottom of the tab for some cool chord maneuvers. Standard tuning E-A-D-G-B-e E B I wished I was smarter, I wished I was stronger. C#m A I wished I love Jesus, the way my wife does. E B I wish it had been easier, instead of any longer. C#m A I wished I could have stood where you would have been proud, E B that won't happen now, that won't happen now. Chorus A: A B There's a whole lot of singing that's never gonna be heard, C#m A E Disappearing everyday without so much as a word somehow. A B Think I broke the wings off that little song bird, C#m A E She's never gonna fly to the top of the world right now. B Top of the world. Second Verse: same as first verse. I don't have to answer any of these questions. Don't have no God to teach me no lessons. I come home in the evening, sit in my chair. One night they called me for supper, but I never got up, I stayed right there in my chair. Chorus A Third Verse: same as others I wished I'd a known you, wished I'd a shown you, All of the things I was on the inside. I'd pretend to be sleeping, when you come in in the morning To whisper good-bye, go to work in the rain. I don't know why, don't know why. Chorus B Cause everyone's singing, we just wanna be heard. Disappearing every day without so much as a word somehow. Wanna grab a hold of that little song bird, Take her for a ride to the top of the world right now. C#m A 3x C#m A C#m Whoa. Whoa. To the top of the world. To the top of the world. A C#m To the top of the world. To the top of the world. To the top of the world. A C#m To the top of the world. To the top of the world. To the top of the world. (and so on and so forth) NOTE: A cool way to play an E chord, and A chord and a B chord quickly (especially for beginning guitar players) is by sliding the E chord shape up to the 7th fret for the A and the 9th fret for the B. The open strings give a pretty feel, NOTE: you do not barre, just slide the shape up as follows A: 077600 B: 099800 Enjoy!
