Sitting On Top Of The World

Verse/Chorus 1 1 1 1 4 4 1 1 1 1 6- 6- 1 5 1 1 It was in the spring, one sunny day My sweetheart left me, Lord, she went away And now she's gone and I don't worry For I'm sitting on top of the world I called my baby, on the telephone She said my darling, won't you come back home And now she's gone and I don't worry For I'm sitting on top of the world Mississippi river is deep and wide My sweetheart's living on the other side Now she's gone and I don't worry For I'm sitting on top of the world You don't like my peaches, don't you shake my tree Get out of my orchard, let my peaches be Now she's gone and I don't worry For I'm sitting on top of the world
