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 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
