We Are The Champions

Biography:

Queen is an English rock band originally consisting of four members: vocalist and pianist Freddie Mercury, guitarist Brian May, bass guitarist John Deacon, and drummer Roger Taylor.

The band formed in London in 1970 after May and Taylor's former band Smile split after having released an album and single. Freddie replaced lead vocalist Tim Staffell, after the latter's departure from the original trio.

There was much deliberation as to what the band's name would be.

Alternatives for this artist

In honor of my Chicago Blackhawks winning their third Stanley Cup in six years last night, I had to learn
this one. This is an adaptation for the acoustic guitar...it is not a transcription of how the song is
performed on the recording, but the chords are correct. As an added bonus, this version should be pretty
easy to fit onto one page for printing!
