When You're On Top


When You're On Top

D
G
I need a bed
          D
That nobody's slept in
G
I need some air
     D
Nobody's been breathing
G
I need a thought
       D
That I can believe in
A
Is this fog
Or is the building really burning

I need you now
Much more than ever
I'm making new friends
But none of them matter
Maybe now
We don't fit together
But you've got your arms around
No one but strangers

            D
Chorus: I feel fine
               G
With the sun in my eyes
        D
The wind in my hair
                G
When I'm falling out of this sky
D                                 G
I'm doing better than I thought I would
                     D
But nothing's ever as good
       G                   D
As when you're on top

I want to wake up
And just start running
Into a ditch
Or straight up a mountain
I want to get
Where no one's been gettin'
Make it deeper than hell
Or make it higher than heaven

I need someone whose price hasn't been met
When everybody's disappearing
By the minute
There isn't anyone left
I haven't met yet
Well I remember
When they hadn't gotten to you yet

Chorus  2x

G
When you're on top
Bm
Half way up
          A
And over this rainbow
D
I heard a shot
        A
Fire up from the ghetto
Bm
As I drop
            A
I didn't think you'd follow
E
Just didn't know
The sky was this shallow

I need a garden
Where nothing's forbidden
I need an apple
That no one's been eatin'
I want to start again
Back at the beginnin'
I had a vision
That this feeling maybe has an ending

Chorus 2x
G
When you're on top
