D MajorD       B minorBm      E minorEm
Every now and then I hear a song I used to know,
Gm6Gm6             D MajorD G+G A augmentedA
Playing late at night on radio,
D MajorD       B minorBm         E minorEm
And I remember when the schooldays finally had to end,
    Gm6Gm6               D MajorD
We were neatly wrapped and sent off in a row;

Bridge:
   Bb majorBb
To be champions of the world,
    C majorC
We can take on anyone,
Bbmaj7/A               A augmentedA
Nothing's going to keep us from the door

We're taking it to the top - oh yes indeed we are,

We've come this far,

Too late to stop, right from the start,

Up to the top,   giving it all we've got,
C majorC    Bb majorBb      C majorC    D MajorD
To the top of the hill right now!

Verse 2:
D MajorD       B minorBm     E minorEm
Working on the window of a boardroom in the sky,
Gm6Gm6               D MajorD G+G A augmentedA
Business men in suits go flying by,
D MajorD        B minorBm        E minorEm
They're heading for the greatest day that they have ever seen,
Gm6Gm6              D MajorD
Selling bridges to the japanese;

Bridge:
    Bb majorBb
We are champions of the world,

Nothing's going to keep us on the floor
