D Em Every now and then I hear a song I used to know, G D Playing late at night on radio, Em And I remember when the schooldays finally had to end, G D We were neatly wrapped and sent off in a row Bridge: Bb To be the champions of the world, C We can take on anyone, D Bb A Nothing's gonna keep us from the doorEm Working on the window of a boardroom in the sky, G D G A D Business men in suits go flying by, Em They're heading for the greatest day that they have ever seen, G D Selling bridges to the Japanese Bridge: Bb We are the champions of the world, C We can take on anyone, D Bb A Nothing's gonna keep us on the floorD We're taking it to the top Gm F Oh yes indeed we are, we've come this far, A D We're taking it to the top Gm F Oh yes, indeed we will, we've got the skill, A Bb C We're taking it to the top_ A Dm Hitting them from the heart, Bb C Too late to stop, A Dm Right from the start Bb C Up to the top_ A Dm Giving it all we've got, Bb C D To the top of the hill right now!Instrumental: B Em G D Bb C Bb C AD We're taking it to the top Gm F Oh yes, indeed we are, we've come this far, A D We're taking it to the top Gm F Oh yes indeed we will, we've got the skill, A Bb C We're taking it to the top_ A Dm Hitting them from the heart, Bb C D Too late to stop, right now!D Taking it to the top Gm F Oh yes, indeed we are, we've come this far, A D We're taking it to the top Gm F Oh yes indeed we will, we've got the skill, A Bb C We're taking it to the top_ A Dm Hitting them from the heart, Bb C Too late to stop, A D Once we have started, Bb C To the top_ A Dm Giving it all we've got, Bb C D To the top of the hill right now, (Now), (now), right now!
