/C/If you love somebody
/F/Better tell them while they’re here ’cause
/G/They just may run away from you/d/

/C/You’ll never know quite when well
/F/Then again it just depends on
/G/How long of time is left for you/d/

/C/I’ve had the highest mountains
/F/I’ve had the deepest river
/G/You can have it all but life keeps moving/d/

/a/Now take it in but don’t look /d/down

‘Cause I’m on top of the /F/world, ‘ay
I’m on top of the /C/world, ‘ay
Waiting on this for a /G/while now
Paying my dues to the dirt/d/
I’ve been waiting to /F/smile, ‘ay
Been holding it in for a /C/while, ‘ay
Take you with me if I/G/ can
Been dreaming of this since a /d/child
I’m on top of the /C/world

I’ve tried to cut these corners
Try to take the easy way out
I kept on falling short of something

I could gave up then but
Then again I couldn’t have ’cause
I’ve travelled all this way for something

Now take it in but don’t look down

Take it with me if I can
Been dreaming of this since a child

And I /F/know it’s hard when you’re falling down
And it’s a /C/long way up when you hit the ground
Get /G/up now, get up, get /d/up now


And I know it’s hard when you’re falling down
And it’s a long way up when you hit the ground
Get up now, get up, get up now
