Tom : C
[Intro] G D C
G D C
[Primeira Parte]
G
I tried my best to be just like
D C
The other boys in school
G
I tried my best to get it right
D C
And died at every duel
G
This mountainside is suicide
D C
This dream will never work
G
Still the sign upon my headstone, write
D C
"A champion of the world"
( G D C )
[Segunda Parte]
G
Yeah I tried my best to stay alight
D C
Fly like a firework
G
I tried my best at taking flight
D C
But my rocketship reversed
G
Oh, referee, don't stop the fight
D C
Everyone can see I'm hurt
G
But I'll stand before conquistadors
D C
Til I'm champion of the world
[Refrão]
C
(When I sail) And when I sail
G
I'm sailing west
C
(Though I might fail) Knowing I might fail
G D
But, still I am hoping for the best
C
(In my dreams) And in my dreams
Em
Onto my chest
C
She'll pin the colours and say
"I wandered the whole wide world but
D G
Baby, you're the best"
( G D C )
( G D C )
[Final]
G
So I'm flying on my bicycle
D C
Heading upwards from the Earth
G
I am jumping with no parachute
D C
Out into the universe
G
I have E.T. on my bicycle
D C
Because giving up won't work
G
I am riding on my rocketship
D C
And I'm champion of the world
( G D C )
