Champion Of The World Uke tab by Coldplay (Baritone Chords)

[Intro]
G C G D
G D C (x2)

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

G D C (x2)


[Verse 2]
       G
Yeah I tried my best to stay alight
    D      C
Fly like a firework
  G
I tried my best at taking flight
       D            C
But my rocketship reversed
    G
Oh, referee, don't stop the fight
     D               C
Everyone can see I'm hurt
         G
But I'll stand before conquistadors
        D               C
Til I'm champion of the world


[Chorus]
        C                C
(When I sail) And when I sail
            G
I'm sailing west
                 C
(Though I might fail) Knowing I might fail
                G              D
But, still I am hoping for the best
       C
(In my dreams) And in my dreams
        Em
Onto my chest
                       C
She'll pin the colours and say
                C
"I wandered the whole wide world but
      D          G
Baby, you're the best"

G D C (x2)


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

G D C
