Gi nwa nke chukwu, gini ka ina ekwu
~#**************#~
Nihi ihe nile
~#**************#~
Nke chukwu mere
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: Chris Martin]
~#**************#~
I tried my best to be just like
~#**************#~
The other boys in school
~#**************#~
I tried my best to get it right
~#**************#~
And died at every duel
~#**************#~
This mountainside is suicide
~#**************#~
This dream will never work
~#**************#~
Still the sign upon my headstone, write
~#**************#~
“A champion of the world”
~#**************#~
[Interlude]
~#**************#~
Oh, oh-oh
~#**************#~
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Chris Martin]
~#**************#~
I tried my best to stay alight
~#**************#~
Fly like a firework
~#**************#~
I tried my best at taking flight
~#**************#~
But my rocket ship reversed
~#**************#~
Oh, referee, dont stop the fight
~#**************#~
Everyone can see Im hurt
~#**************#~
But Ill stand before conquistadors
~#**************#~
Till Im champion of the world
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Chris Martin, Chris & Will]
~#**************#~
(When I sail)
~#**************#~
And when I sail, Im sailing west
~#**************#~
(Know I might fail)
~#**************#~
Knowing I might fail, but still Im hoping for the best
~#**************#~
(In my dreams)
~#**************#~
And in my dreams onto my chest
~#**************#~
Shell pin the colours and say
~#**************#~
“I wandered the whole wide world, but
~#**************#~
Baby, youre the best”
~#**************#~
[Interlude: Chris Martin]
~#**************#~
Lo, lo-lo-lo, lo, oh
~#**************#~
Ee-oh-ee-oh-ee-oh-ee-oh
~#**************#~
Lo, lo-lo-lo, lo
~#**************#~
[Outro: Chris Martin & Will Champion]
~#**************#~
So Im flying on my bicycle
~#**************#~
Heading upwards from the Earth
~#**************#~
I am jumping with no parachute
~#**************#~
Out into the universe
~#**************#~
I have E.T. on my bicycle
~#**************#~
Because giving up wont work
~#**************#~
Now Im riding on my rocketship
~#**************#~
And Im champion of the world
