Chords for We Will Rock You and We Are the Champions by suuuupaadave

This song has a lot going on in it so this is my best transcription. For the WWRY section you'll have a capo on the 4th fret, or you can just barre the fourth fret, but I find it easier to just use a capo, then remove it for the WATC section. This song has some tricky finger picking that you may need to listen to the recording to find the right articulations, as there are many.

               Em                                   Emadd9           
You brought me fame and fortune and everything that goes with it
Em
I thank you all
                        G    C/G
But it's been no bed of roses
            G     C/G
No pleasure cruise
                G                    D/F#        Em
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race
      A7          D7  E7
And I ain't gonna lose
