Intro


            A
Mississippi River so big and wide,
             D
Blond haired woman on the other side.
          A                            E
Now she's gone, gone, gone and I don't worry
           A          D          C     F  C    A  G  A
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world.

I worked all summer, spring and fall,
Blond haired woman the cause of it all.
Now she's gone, gone, gone and I don't worry
           A          D          C     F  C   C  Bb  C
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world.

[
Modulate up 1.5 steps for jam  (A=C   D=F   E=G)
Then back down to A for the rest of the song.
]

I saw her in Dallas and El Paso.
Said, "Come back baby, I need you so."
Now she's gone, gone, gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world.

Mississippi River so big and wide,
Blond haired woman on the other side.
Now she's gone, gone, gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world.
