I wished I was smarter, I wished I was stronger,
Am F
I wished I loved Jesus, the way my wife does.
C G
I wish it had been easier, instead of any longer,
Am F
I wished I could have stood, where you would have been proud,
C G
but that won't happen now, that won't happen now.
F G
There's a whole lot of singing, that's never gonna be heard,
Am F C
disappearing every day, without so much as a word - somehow.
F G
I think I broke the wings of that little songbird,
Am F C G
she's never gonna fly, to the top of the world, right now, top of the world.
C G
I don' t have to answer, any of these questions,
Am F
don't have no guide to teach me no lessons.
C G
I come home in the evening, sit in my chair,
Am F
one night they called me for supper, but I never got up,
C G
I stayed right there in my chair.
F G
There's a whole lot of singing, that's never gonna be heard,
Am F C
disappearing every day, without so much as a word, somehow.
F G
I think I broke the wings of that little songbird,
Am F C
she's never gonna fly, to the top of the world, right now.
C G
I wished I'd known you, wished I'd shown you,
Am F
all of the things, I was on the inside.
C G
I´d pretend to be sleeping, when you come in in the morning,
Am F
to whisper goodbye, go to work in the rain,
C G
I don't know why, don't know why.
F G
Cause everyone´s singing, we just wanna be heard,
Am F C
disappearing every day, without so much as a word, somehow.
F G
Gonna grab a hold of that little songbird,
Am F C
take her for a ride, to the top of the world, right now.
Am - F (4x) Am F
Oh ! Oh !
Am F
To the top of the world, to the top of the world. (4x)
Am - F (8x)
