Our last day of summer, 1979

Gotta live it up one time before it's over
C                      D
We will make history tonight
G          Em
Out at the drive-in
C                                         D
All of our closest friends, they will be sneaking in

You'll be spending the whole night
C                           D
Trying eveything you can to get that girl to notice you

Chorus:
Em            C          D                  G      D/F#
  "We Are the Champions" playing out on the radio station
Em         C                     D
  Everyone sing along with these anthems of our generation
Em                C                  D                  G              D/F#
  Cruisin' down Pacific Coast Highway Put the top down, crawl into the backseat
Em             C              D
  Let's create anthems of our own tonight


Verse 2:
G           Em
Down at the roller rink,
        C                                       D
All the cool kids crowded around the air hockey table
 Bm                  Em
"Hey, my best friend likes you,"
  C                 D
I hear you shout at me as you go skating by


(Repeat Chorus)


Bridge:
C                   D
  Sneak out of your window, darlin'
G                 Em
  Let's live like outlaws, honey
C                  D
  We'll never look back


Verse 3:
G                   Em           C                         D
  Climb out on this rooftop And stare at the city lights below us
     B                Em             C                     D
This world belongs to us tonight The kids will keep ragin' on-
And they ain't never gonna stop
