Subject: CRD: Queen: We Are The Champions

As requested, here's "We Are The Champions" by Queen. I've got all chords and
they are correct, but I haven't figured out how to make them yet. Perhaps
someone could help me with it. If so, e-mail me at ajchoutm@cs.ruu.nl.
I'll repost the song when it's complete.
