It's a long long way to the top of the world

                G7              C
But it's only a short fall back down


                         G7          C        F
A young fool filled with grief I let ambition rule me

       C                        G7
Like a hunger that gnawed at my soul

         C            G7                   C           F
I worked hard made my fortune but lost the heart of my darling

        C          G7                 C
She got lonely and her love soon grew cold


       G7                   C
It's a long long way to the top of the world

     F               C               G7
On a rough road that winds round and round

C                C7         F          C
It's a long long way to the top of the world

                G7              C
But it's only a short fall back down

 
                       G7           C          F
Now I'm a big man with money but at love I'm a pauper

              C                         G7
Though what I once held now another man claims

                 C          G7           C              F
I've reached the top of the world but my heart hit rock bottom

        C            G7          C
I can't make love to fortune and fame


       G7                   C
It's a long long way to the top of the world

     F               C               G7
On a rough road that winds round and round

C                C7         F          C
It's a long long way to the top of the world

                G7              C
But it's only a short fall back down


                G7              C
But it's only a short fall back down
