Lyrics

(C)Such a feel in’s (G)com in’ (F)o ver (C)me,

there is (Em)won der in most (Dm)ev ’ry thing I (C)see,

not a (F)cloud in the sky,

(G7)got the (Em)sun in my (A7)eyes and I (Dm)pleas won’t be sur prised if it’s a dream.

(C)Ev ’ry thing I (G)want the world to (C)be,

and the (F)rea son is (G)clear, it’s be (Em)cause for you are (A7)here, you’re the (Dm)near est thing to (D)heav en that I’ve (Gsus)seen.

I’m on the top of the world

look in’ down on cre a tion, and the (C)on ly ex pla na tion I can (C)find,

is the (F)love that I’ve (G)found, ev er (C)since you’ve been a (F)round.

Your love’s (C)put me at the (G7)top of the (C)world.

(C)Some thing in the (G)wind has (F)learned my (C)name,

and it’s (Em)tell in’ me that (Dm)things are not the (C)same,

in the (F)leaves on the trees

(G7)and the (Em)touch of the (A7)breeze, there’s a (Dm)pleas in’ sense of hap pi ness for me.

(C)There is on ly (G)one wish on my (C)mind,
