I remember the nights
Caught up in dreaming my goodbyes
Watching the door for anything more than an ordinary life
I remember the days
New beginnings on an open page
With something to prove and nothing to lose, not a soul to betray

Ab Eb
Here I am
Ab Db Ab
Living a dream a dream that I can’t hold
Eb Db
Here I am on my own
Chorus:
Ab
On top of the world,
Eb
On top of it all,
Ab Db
Trying to feel invicible,
Ab Eb Db Ab (slide down the last Ab)
Yeahhhohhh Yeahhhhoh
I’m dying on top of the world

I remember the lies
Caught up in building ‘paradise’
The angels were slaves and demons behaved
And everything was alright

I hear the crowds beneath me
I’m wishing they could reach me
But I’m on top of the world
Up here I’m dying alone
Bridge (Part 3):
Ab – this part is just one chord in rhythm
Inside the walls of gold, outside of happiness
It’s all been a show, too late to confess
No room for heart and soul, no room for innocence (innocence)
