[Am7]I should be knocking on the [G]door of the [D]pearly [Csus2]gates
Why keep a poor man alive in a job he hates
[Am7]I've heard that good things will [G]come to [Bm]he who waits [Csus2]
[Am7]I should be riding on a [G]float in the [D]hit pa[Csus2]rade
Instead of sitting on the curb behind the barricade
[Am7]Another verse in the [G]doormat [Bm]serenad[Csus2]e

Won't you [G]put me on [Am7]top [Fsus2]       [C5]
won't you put me on top, or change the odds
won't you put me on top
or at [G]least put some [Bm]hope in the [Em]bottom of the [Csus2]box
[G]   [Bm]   [Em] [Csus2]

[Am7]Oh, at least put some [G]hope in the [D]box for [Csus2]me
'Cause it's only black and white and not a lot of each
[Am7]There's a remote on the [G]shelf, but it's [Bm]out of reach [Csus2]
Won't you [G]put me on [Am7]top [Fsus2]       [C5]
won't you put me on top, or change the odds
won't you put me on top
or at [G]least put some [Bm]hope in the [Em]bottom of the [Csus2]box

[G] [Bm] [Em] [Csus2]

[Bm]Put some hope in the [E7]bottom of the box for me

The words are just there for a guide, they are not sung))
