(Verse)
I've paid my [Am]dues[Em]
Time after [Am]time[Em]
I've done my [Am]sentence[Em]
But committed no [Am]crime[Em]
And bad [C]mistakes[F/C]
I've made a [C]few[F/C]
I've had my [C]share of sand [G/B]kicked in [Am]my face
But [D7]I've come [G]through
And I mean to go [G]on, [G]and on, [G7]and on, [A7]and on
(Chorus)
[D]We are the [F#m]champions, my [Bm]friends[G] [A]
And [D]we'll keep on [F#m]fighting till the [G]end[B7/Eb]
[Em]We are the [A7/E]champions, [Gm]we are the [C#dim]champions
[D]No time for [Cadd9/E]losers 'cause [F]we are the [G]champions[Am7add4]
Of the world[D] [G/D] [Dm] [Am7add4]
(Verse)
I've taken my [Am]bows[Em]
And my curtain [Am]calls[Em]
You brought me [Am]fame and fortune
And everything that [Em]goes with it
I thank you [Am]all[Em]
But it s been no bed of [C]roses[F/C]
No pleasure [C]cruise[F/C]
I consider it a [C]challenge
Before the [G/B]whole human [Am]race
And [D7]I ain't gonna [G]lose
And I mean to go [G]on, [G]and on, [G7]and on, [A7]and on
(Chorus)
[D]We are the [F#m]champions, my [Bm]friends[G] [A]
And [D]we'll keep on [F#m]fighting till the [G]end[B7/Eb]
[Em]We are the [A7/E]champions, [Gm]we are the [C#dim]champions
[D]No time for [Cadd9/E]losers 'cause [F]we are the [G]champions[Am7add4]
Of the world[D]
(Outro)
[D]We are the [F#m]champions, my [Bm]friends[G] [A]
And [D]we'll keep on [F#m]fighting till the [G]end[B7/Eb]
[Em]We are the [A7/E]champions, [Gm]we are the [C#dim]champions
[D]No time for [Cadd9/E]losers 'cause [F]we are the [G]champions[Am7add4] [D]
