The Pogues - Sitting on Top of the World: chords

            G                      F
Well, it's been a long day, but I don't like to moan
                               G
The middle of summer and I'm chilled to the bone
                             F
Holes in my shoes where the rain comes in
                           G
I'm sitting on top of the world

 C                        F
Walking in the shadows of empty office blocks
I was talking to a stranger,
        G
saying he's on the rocks
                       F
Down on the pavement, living in a box
                           G
I'm sitting on top of the world

Chorus:
C   G    F
Oh no, can't anybody see?
      C                    F
It's been a bad day and I want a little peace
Oh no, won't you please help me?
I want to lie down, but there's no beds free

Down on the corner, there's starry eyed preachers
Rattling cans and pimping Jesus
There's madmen on boxes making speeches
I'm sitting on top of the world

You can't sit in the sunshine or go out after dark
Dogs on the loose, acting like sharks
Psychos on the streets burning winos in the park
I'm sitting on top of the world

Chorus:
Oh no, I wish I was gone
I want to get going before too long
Oh no, I want to leave town
I can't drive my car, 'cause they put it in
the pound

The masters of industry are killing for oil
There's poison in the air and the water and
the soil
We're all turning mutant, they're counting
up their spoils
I'm sitting on top of the world

I turn on the TV and it makes me want to cry
There's killing and there's torture,
destruction and lies
Leaders talk rubbish, more people die
I'm sitting on top of the world

Chorus:
Oh no, I can't take anymore
I'm shaking all over and my nerves are all raw
Oh no, my head's a little sore
I want to get out, but I can't find the door

Oh no, I can't take anymore
I'm shaking all over and my nerves are all raw
Oh no, my head's a little sore
I want to get out, but I can't find the door

I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm sitting on top of the world
