Mike DeAngelis plays everything with bar chords.
Any chord accompanied by a * means to only sturm the chord once then quickly follow it up with the next chord
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
* *
Youâve got no vision for the long run
* *
Youâve got no sense of history
* *
Youâve got the world at your fingertips
*
And now you have it crumblin
[Pre-Chorus 1]
But if you look back far enough
And find the place you started
Before you held a grudge
Or the highest office
You do nothing every year
But you re showin up on the red carpet...
[Chorus]
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
* * *
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
And it ainât you
* *
[Verse 2]
* *
I said âGive it to me straight!â - (Things are crooked)
* * * * * *
I said âWhoâs sticking around?â - (For all the heavy lifting?)
* *
You ainât no robin hood -(No)
* *
Never been in this neighbourhood -(No)
Thought you said this would be easy
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But I can smell it on ya
Youâre some aristocrat
I said âIt takes a villageâ
And you canât handle that
Well I already know
How the history books will react
[Chorus]
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
* * *
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
And it ainât you
[Bridge]
All my girls say
O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh
O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh
All my dudes go
O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh
O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh
[Verse 3]
Now hereâs the official statement:
Weâre street fighting on the pavement
Iâm going dancing like Iâm raving
Thereâs no service in the bat
Now I donât mean to sound impatient
But Iâve seen the flag youâre waving
And I can see through all this fake shit
This highest officeâs sitting vacant
[Pre-Chorus 3]
But if you look back far enough
And find the place you started
I promise you no charlatan
Has ever died a martyr
You do nothing every year
But showing up on the red carpet
[Chorus]
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
(O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh)
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
(O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh)
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
(O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh)
Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ
* * *
(Iâm looking for the Peopleâs Champ)
(O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh)
And it ainât you
