Sittin' on Top of the World Lyrics

Sittin' on Top of the World
Sittin' on Top of the World
{c:Trad.
Released by Bob Dylan on Good As I Been To You (1992)
{c:It seems that the B is played with an open E string: x24400, but the
full B chord x24442 is fine too; you don't really need those high
strings anyway, since mostly the song is played only on the bass
strings.}
{c:The E4 chord (E on the fourth fret) = xxx454. Could be played on the
seventh fret as well (079990)}
: . . .
Was in the summer,
One early fall,
Just tryin' to find my
Little all and all
Now she's gone,
An' I don't worry.
Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world.
: . . . . . . : .
this is the model also for the remaining interludes
Was in the spring,
One summer's day.
Just when she left me,
She gone to stay.
Now she's gone.
An' I don't worry.
Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world.
: . . . . . . : .
Now don't come runnin'
Holdin' up your hand.
Can get me a woman
Quick as you can get a man.
Now she's gone.
An' I don't worry.
Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world.
Happen for days,
Didn't know your name.
Oh, why should I worry
Or crave you in vain?
Now she's gone.
An' I don't worry.
Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world.
Went to the station,
Down in the yard,
Gonna get me a freight train,
Work's done got hard.
Now she's gone.
An' I don't worry.
Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world.
The lonesome days,
They have gone by,
Why should I beg you?
You said good-bye.
Now she's gone.
An' I don't worry.
Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world.
