Here's a song that Richard wrote with John Bettis.
I think it was about two years ago.
And it's on our singles album 1969 to [A] 1973.
[Bb] And it's called Top of the [Eb] World.
Yee-haw!
[Bb] [F] [Bb]
[Eb] [Dm]
[C] [Fm] Such a feeling's [Cm] coming [Bb] over me.
[F] There's wonder [Eb] in most [F] [Bb] everything I see.
[Eb] Not a cloud in the [F] sky, got [Fm] the sun in my [Cm] [G] eyes.
And [Cm] I won't be [C] surprised if it's [F] a dress.
[Bb] Everything [F] I want [Eb] the world [Bb] to be
is [F] now coming [Cm] true, [Bb] especially for me.
[Eb] And the reason [F] is clear, [Fm] it's because [Cm] you are,
[G] [Cm] you're the nearest [Ebm] thing to heaven [Fm] that I've seen.
I'm [Bb] on the top of the world,
[Eb] down on creation, and the [Bb] only [Eb] explanation I [Bb] can find
[Eb] is the love [F] that I've had [Bb] ever since you've [Eb] been around.
[Bb] You're what's put me at the [F] top [Bb] of the world.
[Eb]
[F] [Bb] So then [F] the wind has [Eb] learned [Bb] my name.
And it's [Dm] telling [Cm] me that [F] things are [Bb] not the same.
[Eb] In the leaves, [F] out the trees, [D] and the touch [C] of a [G] breeze,
[Cm] there's a pleasing [Ebm] sense of happiness [Bb] for [F]
me.
[Bb] There is [Fm] only one wish [Bb] on my mind.
[F] When this day is through, I hope that [Bb] I will find
[Eb] that tomorrow [F] will be [Fm] just the same for you [G] and me.
[Cm] All I need will [Ebm] be mine if you [F] are here.
[C] I'm on [Bb] the top of [Eb] the world,
down on creation, and [Bb] the [Eb] only explanation I [Bb] can find
is [Eb] the love that [F] I've had [Bb] ever since [Eb] you've been around.
You're [Bb] what's put [Eb] me at the [F] top of [Bb] the world.
I'm on the top of the world,
[Eb] down on creation, and [Bb] the [Eb] only explanation I [Gm] can find
[Eb] is the [F] love that I've [Bb] had ever since [Eb] you've been around.
You're what's put me at the top.
