cyg


[Verse 1]
A               E      D    A
Such a feelin's comin' over me
         C#m            Bm           A    A7
There is wonder in most everything I see
      D            E
Not a cloud in the sky
        C#m       F#m
Got the sun in my eyes
      Bm          Dm               E      E7
And I won't be surprised if it's a dream

[Verse 2]
A            E        D        A
Everything I want the world to be
       C#m           Bm           A     A7
Is now coming true especially for me
        D         E
And the reason is clear
       C#m           F#m
It's because you are here
           Bm               Dm               E      Esus4
You're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen

[Chorus]
           A                        D
I'm on the top of the world lookin' down on creation
        A         Bm           A       A7
And the only explanation I can find
       D              E          A                  D
Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around
            A             E          A
Your love's put me at the top of the world

[Verse 3]
A                E        D          A
Something in the wind has learned my name
         C#m             Bm                 A      A7
And it's tellin' me that things are not the same
       D             E
In the leaves on the trees
        C#m          F#m
And the touch of the breeze
          Bm                Dm            E     E7
There's a pleasin' sense of happiness for me

[Verse 4]
A             E        D     A
There is only one wish on my mind
          C#m              Bm               A     A7
When this day is through I hope that I will find
       D           E
That tomorrow will be
         C#m              F#m
Just the same for you and me
      Bm           Dm              E      Esus4
All I need will be mine if you are here

[Chorus]
           A                        D
I'm on the top of the world lookin' down on creation
        A         Bm           A       A7
And the only explanation I can find
       D              E          A                  D
Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around
            A             E          A
Your love's put me at the top of the world


Note:
There are some details I can't do here but:

1) The intro is similar to the chorus.
2) In the verses 2nd Bm's lift middle finger on/off to make Bsus2.
3) On the Dm's lift ring finger on/off to make Dm6.
4) Esus4 seems to make more sense then E7 right before chorus.
5) And some of the Bm's are Bm7's and the same for some of the F#m's ?
