Coldplay - Champion Of The World

Intro 1

Verse 1

I tried my best to be just like

The other boys in school

I tried my best to get it right

And died at every duel

This mountainside is suicide

This dream will never work

Still the sign upon my headstone, write

"A champion of the world"

Interlude 1

Verse 2

I tried my best to stay alight

Fly like a firework

I tried my best at taking flight

But my rocket ship reverse

Oh, referee, don't stop the fight

Everyone can see I′m hurt

Still I'll stand before conquistadors

Till I’m champion of world

Bridge 1

And when I sail

I′m sailing west

Knowing I might fail

But still I′m hoping for the best

In my dreams onto my chest

She'll pin the colours and say

"I wandered the whole wide world but

Baby, you′re the best"

Interlude 2

Verse 3

So I'm flying on my bicycle

Heading upwards from the Earth

I am jumping with no parachute

Out into the universe

I have E.T. on my bicycle

Because giving up won′t work

Now I'm riding on my rocketship

And I′m champion of the world
