Intro:

,  (x2)

Verse 1:

           
 I've been a-round the world,
              
 Had my pick of any girl.
                                   
 You'd think I'd be happy; but I'm not.

Chorus 1:

         
 Ev'rybody knows my name,
               
 But it's just a crazy game.
                       ,   
 Oh, it's lonely at the top.

Break:


 Listen to the band they're playing,
               ,     
Just for me.


 Listen to the people paying,
                  
Just for me.

Chorus 2:

                 
 All the applause, all the parades,
                 
 And all the money I have made;
                         Ddim7  
 Oh, it's lonely at the top.

Interlude:

      ,       

Chorus 3:

              
 Listen all you fools out there,
                 
 Go on and love me I don't care.
                    
 Oh, it's lonely at the top,
                    
 Oh, it's lonely at the top.
