The Carpenters - Top of the world
cyg
Seemed like the other tabs were way off so I'm help'n out here.
Its not really a guitar tune but these are the chords & it sounds pretty good.
"A" is the correct key.
standard tune
V1
A E D A
Such a feelin's comin' over me
c#m bm A A7
There is wonder in most everything I see
D E
Not a cloud in the sky
c#m f#m
Got the sun in my eyes
bm dm E E7
And I won't be surprised if it's a dream
V2
A E D A
Everything I want the world to be
c#m bm A A7
Is now coming true especially for me
D E
And the reason is clear
c#m f#m
It's because you are here
bm dm E Esus4
You're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen
CHORUS
A D
I'm on the top of the world lookin' down on creation
A bm A A7
And the only explanation I can find
D E A D
Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around
A E A
Your love's put me at the top of the world
A E D A
Something in the wind has learned my name
c#m bm A A7
And it's tellin' me that things are not the same
D E
In the leaves on the trees
c#m f#m
And the touch of the breeze
bm dm E E7
There's a pleasin' sense of happiness for me
A E D A
There is only one wish on my mind
c#m bm A A7
When this day is through I hope that I will find
D E
That tomorrow will be
c#m f#m
Just the same for you and me
bm dm E Esus4
All I need will be mine if you are here
Repeat Chorus
note:
theres some detials I can't do here but:
1) the intro is similar to chorus
2) in the verses 2nd bm's lift middle finger on/off to make Bsus2
3) on the dm's lift ring finger on/off to make dm6
4) Esus4 seems to make more sence then E7 right before chorus
5) & some of the bm's are bm7's & same for some of the f#m's ?
This is my 1st tab, hope you liked...need more? send requests to realcygnus@live.com &
see what I can do.
great song Enjoy !
