Sittin' on Top of the World

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)} : . . . |-------------------------- |-------------------------- |-------------------------- |-------------------------- |-2---2-4---4-2---2-4---4-- |-0---0-0---0-0---0-0---0-- E Was in the summer, One early fall, A Just tryin' to find my E Little all and all E4 Now she's gone, B An' I don't worry.

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. : . . . : . . |-0----------4---3-------2-------------2--- |-0------3---3-2-2-2-1-1-1-------------0--- |-1------4---4-3---3-2-2---1-----------2--- |-2------------------------2---2-------1--- |-2------------------------2---2-0-1-2-2--- |-0----------------------------------------
