WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS

Words and Music by

Freddie Mercury

Dm

I've paid my_ dues,

time af-ter time,

I've done my sen-tence,

but committed no crime.

F

And bad mistakes,

I've made a few,

F F C Dm

I've had my share of sand kicked in my face,

G C

but I've come through. D7

(And I need to go on and on and on and on.)

G Hm Em C D

We are the champions my friends, and

G Hm C G# E7

we'll keep on fighting till the end.

Am7 D7 C

We are the champions, We are the champions,

G F B C Gm

no time for losers, 'cause we are the champions, of the world.

Am7 Gm x2

Am7 Dm

I've taken my bows,

and my curtain calls,

you brought me fame and fortune and ev'rything

that goes with it, I thank you all.

F

But it's been no bed of roses, no pleasure cruise,

F F C Dm G C

I consider it a challenge before the whole human race and I ain't gonna lose.

D7

(And I need to go on and on and on and on.)
