The Pogues - Sitting on Top of The World chords
Start Jamming...
When I feel a long day [F] but I don't like to moan
Middle of the summer [G] and I'm chill to the bone
Holes in my shoes [F] where the rain comes in
I'm sitting on top of [G] the world
[C] Walking in the [F] shadows of empty office blocks
Talking to a stranger [G] saying he's on the rocks
Down on the pavement, [F] living in a box
I'm sitting on top of [G] the world
Oh no, [F] can anybody see
[C] It's been a bad day and I want a little peace
[G] Oh no, [F] won't you please help me
[C] I wanna lie down [F] but there's no bed free
[G] Down on the corner, [F] that starry-eyed preacher
Rattling cans [G] and pimping Jesus
Mad men on boxes, [F] naked speeches
I'm sitting on top of [G] the world
[C] You can't sit in the sunshine [F] or go out after dark
Dogs on the loose, [G] acting like sharks
Cycles on the street, [F] burning wild in the park
I'm sitting on top of [G] the world
Oh no, [F] I wish he was gone
[C] I wanna get going [F] but fucking alone
[G] Oh no, [F] I wanna leave town
[C] I can't drop my coffee, [F] they put it in the [Dm] pound
[G]
[Dm] [G]
[F] [G]
[F] [G]
The masters of [F] industry are killing for oil
There's poison in the air [G] and the water and the soil
We're all turning mutant, [F] they're counting up the spoils
I'm sitting on top [G] of the world
[C] I turn on the TV [F] and it makes me wanna cry
Killing and the torture, [G] destruction and [C] lies
Leaders talk [F] rubbish, more people die
Sitting on top [G] of the world
Oh no, [F] I can't take anymore
[C] Shaking all [F] over, I'm a murderer
[G] Oh no, [F] my head's a little [C] sore
Wanna get out [F] but I can't find the [G] door
Oh [F] no, I can't take [C] anymore
Shaking all [F] over, I'm a murderer
[G] Oh no, [F] my head's a little [C] sore
Wanna get out [F] but I can't find the [Dm] door
