[Verse 1]
[D]Drag your finger down the long lis[Em]t
[B]Pass [Bm]the r[Em]osenthals and blank[D]ets
You [A]hear the foot[D]steps com
[Em]ing down the hall
[B]Bronze and [Bm]silver [G]medals
hun[D]g on the w[A]all
And the [D]punches thrown in [Em]the air
And [Bm]some [A]punches,
if [Em]no one is s[D]tanding th[A]ere
And [D]the lighter [Em]finally comes
[Bm]Until[Em]
Cause you [D]won[A][D][Em]
But you [D]lost
A [A]thousand [D]times be[Em]fore
It [A]wasn't [Em]over[D]
[A]And sometimes
[D]It [Em]seems there is[D]
[A]no [D]explanation
[Bm]It's[Em] just be cause[Bm][Em][D]
[A]You[D] cou[C]ld be [Em]a cha[G]mp[Bm]i on[Em][A]
[D]Left, uppercut
[G]If [Em]only for [A]the night
Fell [D]face[Em]less [D]ove[G]r
[Bm]the pavement
[Em]Abov[A]e the two stor[D]y ho[Em]use,[G]
[Bm]you've [Em]taken fligh[A]t[D][G][Em][A][D]
[Em][Bm][G][Em][A]
Written [D]words of Eliza[Bm]beth [Em]plan[Bm]
6 o'c[Em]lock
It's half past
[D]Liv[A]e like W[D]alice and
his [Bm]women
[Em]She had [Bm]champ[Em]ane for us[D]
As [A]dreamers [D]do
I did be[Em]lieve
[Bm]There will be [Em]consequences
for my [D]foolish
[A]Put the [D]tape in [Em]the VCR
Go to [Bm]channel [Em]3[D][A]
[D]You could [G]be [Bm]a champio[Em]n[A]
[D]Left, [A]uppercut
[G]If [Bm]only fo[Em]r the [A]night
[D]Fell faceless ove[G]r the[Bm] pav[Em]ement[A]
Above the [D]two [Em]story [G]house,
[Bm]you've [Em]taken fligh[A]t[Em]
[C]Was [Em]it William D[F#m]uke of
[A]Nor[Em]mandy[D][Bm]
Fought his last fight,
[Em]before night[C#dim]fall[Em]
Advancing armies from the
[A]left and [Bm]right
They lit the cannons,
[Em]but [A]didn[Em]'t fire
They didn't [A]fire[D][Em]
But [Bm]you [Em]lost,
[D]a t[A]housand times [D]before[Em]
It was[A]n't [Em]over[D]
[A]I know som[D]etimes,
[Em]It s[Bm]eems [Em]there is no explana[D]tion[A][D][F#m][Em]
It just [D]because
[A][D][G][Bm][Em][A][D][Bm][G][Bm][Em]
[A]Cha[D]mpi[G]on [Em](til end)
