Tabbed by: Emrldeyzs INTRO: VERSE: I wished I was smarter, I wished I was stronger I wished I'd loved jesus, The way my wife does I wished it'd been easier, Instead of any longer I wished I could've stood, Where you would've been proud That won't happen now, That won't happen now There's a whole lot of singing that's never gonna be heard Disappearing every day, Without so much as a word, Somehow And I think I broke the wings off that little songbird She's never gonna fly to the top of the world, now To the top of the world VERSE: I don't have to answer ,Any of these questions Don't have no guide to teach me no lessons I come home in the evening, Sit in my chair One night they called me for supper But I never got up, I stayed right there In my chair There's a whole lot of singing that's never gonna be heard Disappearing every day, Without so much as a word, Somehow And I think I broke the wings off that little songbird She's never gonna fly to the top of the world, now To the top of the world, Oooh ooohh VERSE: I wished I'd had known you, I wished I had shown you All of the things I was on the inside But I'd pretend to be sleeping When you'd come in in the morning To whisper goodbye and go work at the rain I don't know why, Don't know why CHORUS: Cause everyone's singing we just wanna be heard Disappearing every day, without so much as a word, Somehow And I wanna grab a hold of that little songbird And take her for a ride to the top of the world Right now, To the top of the world Whoaaaa ohhhhhhhhh To the top of the world To the top of the world To the top of the world To the top of the world To the top of the world
