G D C G 1. Such a feeling's coming over me Bm Am G There is wonder in most everything I see C D Bm Em Not a cloud in the sky got the sun in my eyes Am Am7 D And I won't be surprised if it's a dream G D C G 2. Everything I want the world to be Bm Am G Is now coming true, especially for me C D Bm Em And the reason is clear, it's because you are here Am Am7 D You're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen G I'm on the - top of the world C Looking - down on creation G Am G And the only explanation I can find C D G C Is the love that I found ever since you've been around G Am7 G You're love put me at the top of the world G D C G 3. Something in the wind has learned my name Bm Am G And it's telling me that things are not the same C D Bm Em In the leaves of the trees and the touch of the breeze Am Am7 D There's a place of sense and happiness for me G D C G 4. There is only one wish on my mind Bm Am G When this is thru I hope that I will find C D Bm Em That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me Am Am7 D All I need will be mine if you are here G I'm on the - top of the world C Looking - down on creation G Am G And the only explanation I can find C D G C Is the love that I found ever since you've been around G Am7 G You're love put me at the top of the world
