We Will Rock You

Words & Music:

Brian May (Queen)

 

[n.c.]  [although the solo at the end is in A]

Buddy, you're a boy make a big noise, playing in the street,

Gonna be a big man some day.

You got mud on your face; you big disgrace,

Kicking your can all over the place.

 

CHORUS:

Singin', "We will we will rock you.  We will we will rock you."  [2x]

 

Buddy, you're a young man, hard man, shouting in the street,

Gonna take on the world some day.

You got blood on your face; you big disgrace,

Waving your banner all over the place.

 

CHORUS:

 

Buddy, you're an old man poor man, pleading with your eyes,

Gonna make you some peace some day.

You got mud on your face, you big disgrace;

Somebody better put you back into your place.

 

CHORUS:

 

[n.c.]                      C5

Everybody: "We will we will rock you."

    A5

All right!

 

[This goes right into the guitar solo, then segues right into "We Are The Champions"]
