[Verse 1]
D
I tried my best to be just like
A G
The other boys in school
D
I tried my best to get it right
A G
And died at every duel
D
This mountainside is suicide
A G
This dream will never work
D
Still the sign upon my headstone, write
A G
"E champion of the world"
D A G (x2)
[Verse 2]
D
Yeah I tried my best to stay alight
A G
Fly like a firework
D
I tried my best at taking flight
A G
But my rocketship reversed
D
Oh, referee, don't stop the fight
A G
Everyone can see I'm hurt
D
But I'll stand before conquistadors
A G
Til I'm champion of the world
[Chorus]
G G
(When I sail) And when I sail
D
I'm sailing west
G
(Though I might fail) Knowing I might fail
D A
But, still I am hoping for the best
G
(In my dreams) And in my dreams
Bm
Onto my chest
G
She'll pin the colours and say
G
"I wandered the whole wide world but
A D
Baby, you're the best"
D A G (x2)
[Outro]
D
So I'm flying on my bicycle
A G
Heading upwards from the Earth
D
I am jumping with no parachute
A G
Out into the universe
D
I have E.T. on my bicycle
A G
Because giving up won't work
D
I am riding on my rocketship
A G
And I'm champion of the world
D A C
