CAPO 9 
 
INTRO: G  D Dsus D  Em  C  
 
VERSE: 
G D I wished I was smarter, I wished I was stronger
Em C I wished I'd loved jesus, The way my wife does
G D I wished it'd been easier, Instead of any longer
Em C I wished I could've stood, Where you would've been proud
G D That won't happen now, That won't happen now
C D There's a whole lot of singing that's never gonna be heard
Em C G Disappearing every day, Without so much as a word, Somehow
C D And I think I broke the wings off that little songbird
Em C G She's never gonna fly to the top of the world, now
D To the top of the world
VERSE:
G D I don't have to answer ,Any of these questions
Em C Don't have no guide to teach me no lessons
G D I come home in the evening, Sit in my chair
Em One night they called me for supper
C G But I never got up, I stayed right there
D In my chair
C D There's a whole lot of singing that's never gonna be heard
Em C G Disappearing every day, Without so much as a word, Somehow
C D And I think I broke the wings off that little songbird
Em C G She's never gonna fly to the top of the world, now
D Em C To the top of the world, Oooh ooohh
VERSE:
G D I wished I'd had known you, I wished I had shown you
Em C All of the things I was on the inside
G But I'd pretend to be sleeping
D When you'd come in in the morning
Em C To whisper goodbye and go work at the rain
G D I don't know why, Don't know why
CHORUS:
C D Cause everyone's singing we just wanna be heard
Em C G Disappearing every day, without so much as a word, Somehow
C D And I wanna grab a hold of that little songbird
Em C And take her for a ride to the top of the world
G D Right now, To the top of the world
Em C Whoaaaa ohhhhhhhhh
Em To the top of the world
C To the top of the world
Em To the top of the world
C To the top of the world
Em To the top of the world
