RAISE YOUR GLASSES

[Rhy. Fig 1a w/ Rhy. Fig 1b] (3x)

[Rhy. Fig 2a]
I took a ride with a one way ticket
I aimed my arrow at the mark and hit it
We all need to be somebody
[Rhy. Fig 2a w/ Rhy. Fig 2b]
Been broken down, but not defeated
I kept on punching back till I succeeded
We all need to be somebody, now
[Rhy. Fig 3]

[Rhy. Fig 4]
We stop at nothing, even climb barbed wire
We struck a match and set the world on fire
And if we tried, we couldn't get much higher, now

[Rhy. Fig 5a w/ Rhy. Fig 5b]
(Ohh) Everyone around the nation
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses
Standing pround 'cause we're the champions
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses

[Rhy. Fig 2a]
We pushed it all, beyond the limit
We took our chances and we jumped right in it
We all need to be somebody
[Rhy. Fig 2a w/ Rhy. Fig 2b]
Now I believe, in strength in numbers
Went into battle with a force of thunder
We all need to be somebody

[Rhy. Fig 4]
I wanna shout it out with all my power
I wanna scream it from the highest tower
I want to celebrate our finest hour, now

[Rhy. Fig 5a w/ Rhy. Fig 5b]
(Ohh) Everyone around the nation
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses
Standing pround 'cause we're the champions
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses

[Rhy. Fig 6a w/ Rhy. Fig 6b]
Oh, you gotta give it your all
You gotta know what you're after
And go, we'll make it over the wall together

[Solo over Rhy. Fig 1a w/ Rhy. Fig 1b] (2x)

[Rhy. Fig 7] (2x)
I took a ride with a one way ticket
I shot my arrow at the mark and hit it
(Everyone around the nation)
When all the others only talked, i did it
(Raise your glasses, raise your glasses)
Kept pushing everything beyond the limit
(Lift your voice in celebration)
[Rhy. Fig 8]
You play the game, you gotta play to win it
So raise your glasses, raise your glasses

[Rhy. Fig 5a w/ Rhy. Fig 5b] (2x)
Everyone around the nation
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses
Standing pround 'cause we're the champions
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses

[Rhy. Fig 5a w/ Rhy. Fig 5b] (repeat and fade)
(Well, come on)
Everyone around the nation
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses
Raise your voice in celebration
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses
