[Verse 1]
B
I tried my best to be just like
F# E
The other boys in school
B
I tried my best to get it right
F# E
And died at every duel
B
This mountainside is suicide
F# E
This dream will never work
B
Still the sign upon my headstone, write
F# E
"C# champion of the world"

[Verse 2]
B
Yeah I tried my best to stay alight
F# E
Fly like a firework
B
I tried my best at taking flight
F# E
But my rocketship reversed
B
Oh, referee, don't stop the fight
F# E
Everyone can see I'm hurt
B
But I'll stand before conquistadors
F# E
Til I'm champion of the world
[Chorus]
E E
(When I sail) And when I sail
B
I'm sailing west
E
(Though I might fail) Knowing I might fail
B F#
But, still I am hoping for the best
E
(In my dreams) And in my dreams
G#m
Onto my chest
E
She'll pin the colours and say
E
"I wandered the whole wide world but
F# B
Baby, you're the best"

[Outro]
B
So I'm flying on my bicycle
F# E
Heading upwards from the Earth
B
I am jumping with no parachute
F# E
Out into the universe
B
I have E.T. on my bicycle
F# E
Because giving up won't work
B
I am riding on my rocketship
F# E
And I'm champion of the world
