I should be knocking on the door of the pearly gates

Why keep a poor man alive in a job he hates
 Am7                                  G         Bm              Csus2
I've heard that good things will come to he who waits

 Am7                         G              D       Csus2
I should be riding on a float in the hit parade

Instead of sitting on the curb behind the barricade
 Am7                      G         Bm        Csus2
Another verse in the doormat serenade


           G           Am7     Fsus2       C5
Won't you put me on top

won't you put me on top, or change the odds
won't you put me on top
       G                Bm             Em               Csus2
Or at least put some hope in the bottom of the box

G   Bm   Em Csus2

 Am7                       G             D         Csus2
Oh, at least put some hope in the box for me

'Cause it's only black and white and not a lot of each
 Am7                         G                 Bm              Csus2
There's a remote on the shelf, but it's out of reach

           G           Am7     Fsus2       C5
Won't you put me on top

won't you put me on top, or change the odds
won't you put me on top
       G                Bm             Em               Csus2
Or at least put some hope in the bottom of the box


G Bm Em Csus2

Put some hope in the bottom of the box for me

Won't you put me on top

won't you put me on top again, or change the odds
or in the least put some hope
         G              Bm             Em               Csus2
Or at least put some hope in the bottom of the box
