[Verse 1]
A        D                           Em
We were leaving for the stratosphere
A
Easy breathing
D                   Em
in your atmosphere
Em7     A        Dmaj7 D
Oh, how could I
A                                  Em D
How could I ever forget last year?

[Chorus]
D                A
When we were on top
Dmaj7   D
When we were on top of the world
D              A
When we were on top
Dmaj7   D                  D7
When we were on top of the world
Gmaj7                    G
The seasons all stopped
F#m7               Bm
The axis forgot to twirl
Em7
When we were on top
A7            Bb      C Dmaj7
On top of the world

[Verse]
G       A
Sent me flying
Dmaj7            Em7
Like a rocketeer
A   A7   A
Without trying
Dmaj7
Now I'm way up here
Em7     A        Dmaj7 D
Oh, how could I
A                                  Em D
How could I ever forget last year?

[Chorus]
D                A
When we were on top
Dmaj7   D
When we were on top of the world
D              A
When we were on top
Dmaj7   D                  D7
When we were on top of the world
Gmaj7                    G
The seasons all stopped
F#m7               Bm
The axis forgot to twirl
Em7
When we were on top
A7            Bb      C Dmaj7
On top of the world

[Bridge]
Bbmaj7  Cmaj7  Bbmaj7     Dmaj7
I can't see my house from here
Bbmaj7    Cmaj7      Bbmaj7  Dmaj7
But I can breathe the air so clear
Bbmaj7  Cmaj7  Bbmaj7     Dmaj7
I can't see my house from here
Bbmaj7    Cmaj7      Bbmaj7  Dmaj7
But I can breathe the air so clear
A                           D    A
And how could I ever forget last year?

[Outro]
D                A
When we were on top
Dmaj7   D
When we were on top of the world
D              A
When we were on top
D                          D7
When we were on top of the world
Gmaj7                    G
The seasons all stopped
F#m7               Bm
The axis forgot to twirl
Em7
When we were on top
A7            Bb      C Dmaj7
On top of the world
