Champion Of The World (Live at NPR's Tiny Desk)

[00:00.00]Coldplay - Champion Of The World(Live at NPR's Tiny Desk)
[00:00.65]I tried my best to be just like
[00:05.19]The other boys in school
[00:09.95]I tried my best to get it right
[00:14.05]And died in every duel
[00:18.66]This mountainside is suicide
[00:23.14]This dream will never work
[00:27.28]Still this sign upon my headstone write
[00:31.79]A champion of the world
[00:53.32]I try my best to stay alight
[00:57.40]Fly like a firework
[01:01.77]I tried my best at taking flight
[01:05.58]But my rocketship reversed
[01:10.13]No referee don't stop the fight
[01:14.08]Everyone can see I'm hurt
[01:18.18]But I'll stand before conquistadors
[01:22.10]Til I'm champion of the world
[01:26.36]When I sail
[01:27.86]And when I sail I'm sailing west
[01:34.93]I might fail
[01:36.43]Knowing I might fail but still I'm hoping for the best
[01:42.73]In my dreams
[01:44.58]In my dreams onto my chest
[01:49.59]She'll pin the colours and say
[01:52.25]I wandered the whole wide world but
[01:57.02]Baby you're the best
[02:14.91]So I'm flying on my bicycle
[02:19.41]Heading upwards from the Earth
[02:23.34]I am jumping with no parachute
[02:27.25]Out into the universe
[02:31.33]I have E.T. on my bicycle
[02:35.13]Because giving up won't work
[02:39.09]Now I'm riding on my rocketship
[02:42.99]And I'm champion of the world
