*this is my first ...so...i dunno, not sure, but it sounds alike=] and just guess for the timing*
Intro and Verse 1:
Bm G A
Out of the corner
Of my tired eyes,
I'm not surprised
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
G A
Oh, won't you give me awhile to unwind?
CHorus
Cadd9 D G Bm
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 and if you're thinking
I've been blinking while you're breaking the rules,
Cadd9 D
don't that make you the fool?
Bm G A
you're on top of the world
Verse 2
Bm G A
You're like a splinter
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
G A
I'm crying out, you don't hear a sound
CHorus
Cadd9 D G Bm
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 and if you're thinking
I've been blinking while you're breaking the rules,
Cadd9 D
don't that make you the fool?
Bm
you're on top of the world
Bm A Cadd9 G Em
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
Bm A Cadd9 D
And I hope it's cost enough of my dear, precious time - To lift your
spirits, spark your smile
CHorus
Cadd9 D G Bm
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 and if you're thinking
I've been blinking while you're breaking the rules,
Cadd9 D
don't that make you the fool?
Bm G A
you're on top of the world
