Heavyweight Champion Of The World Acoustic Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

GNow that she's older

As the Dembers of romance fade to Emmortgages and leccy bills

Been Dcomfortable and that

Nobody Gtold her that she'd Dever reach the stage

Where her Emhusband bores or her or she Dlies about her age

He's comproGmising

At least he's Dgot a job for life

Get Emborn, get school, get job, get car

Pay Dtax and find a wife

And on Gthat note the eDnd can't come too soon

If Emyou're not living on the edge you Dtake up too much room

I could've Cbeen a contender

I Emcould've been a someone

CCaught up in the rat race

And Gfeeling like a no one

CCould've been me in the papers

With the Emmoney and the girls

I could've Cbeen the heavyweight Achampion of the world

At Gschool he used to dream about Dbeing Bruce Lee

But the Emneed for chops in the Manor Top

Ain't Dall that great you see

And so he Ggave up

On his Dblack belt and first Dan

As Emnear as he got to China

Was a Dweek in Camber sands

I could've Cbeen a contender

I Emcould've been a someone

CCaught up in the rat race

And Gfeeling like a no one

CCould've been me in the papers

With the Emmoney and the girls

I could've Cbeen the heavyweight Achampion of the world

I could've Cbeen a contender

I Emcould've been a someone

CCaught up in the rat race

And Gfeeling like a no one

CCould've been me in the papers

With the Emmoney and the girls

I could've Cbeen the heavyweight Achampion of the world

It's F7Mboring, it's boring

It Emmight put you to sleep

As the F7Msame old routine repeated Emweek after week

And you work F7Mharder, work harder

You're Emtold that you must

And you F7Mmust earn a living

You Gmust earn a crust

And be like Geverybody else

Be like Deverybody else

Be like Emeverybody else

Just be like Deverybody else

be like Geverybody else

Be like Deverybody else

Be like Emeverybody else

Just be like Deverybody else

Be like Aeverybody else

Just be like Eeverybody else

Be like F♯meverybody else

Just be like Eeverybody else

Be like Aeverybody else

Just be like Eeverybody else

Be like F♯meverybody else

I'm not like Eeverybody else

I could've Cbeen a contender

I Emcould've been a someone

CCaught up in the rat race

And Gfeeling like a no one

CCould've been me in the papers

With the Emmoney and the girls

I could've Cbeen the heavyweight Achampion of the world

I could've Cbeen a contender

I Emcould've been a someone

CCaught up in the rat race

And Gfeeling like a no one

CCould've been me in the papers

With the Emmoney and the girls
