^Bm ^F#sus4 (8x) ^D ^F#m (8x) [Abm b5] ^C#sus7 (8x) ^G ^F#sus4 (4x) ^Em7 ^F#sus7 (4x)

On top of the world like a flag on a mountain Feeling so high you can feel so alone Unable to breathe at the height that you flew Staring on clouds with no view of below On top of a girl like a dream in a hotel Falling towards something out of control Unable te miss like the man in the tram Crashing your car in Amsterdam He did it without knowing Didn't feel a thing Just wrecked it and kept going

^F#m The space around the stars is something that you ^D know ^F#m A billion miles of darkness left you feeling ^D low ^F#m The space around the stars is something that you ^D know

same chords as intro and first 3 verses: Everything about you So perfectly restrained But everything inside you Bites you... solo:

^F#m ^C#sus7 ^F#m ^C#m (12x) ^Dm ^Asus7 ^Dm ^Am (4x)

Every^Dmbody in the whole of the ^Asus7 world Is the ^Am same inside ^C Every^Dmbody in the whole of the ^Asus7 whole of the whole of the ^Am world ^C Every^Dmone is only everyone ^Asus7 else Every^Ambody's got to ^C know Every^Dmbody loves and loves and ^Em laughs and cries and ^F eats and sleeps and ^G grows and dies
