Let us now have a look at the top five Chelsea fan chants with lyrics.
The chant ‘Blue is the colour’ is one of the most famous chants amongst the Chelsea fan and is normally sung during the beginning of games to motivate the players and to create a thumping atmosphere around the club. Apart from the beginning, this chant is also used against ‘away’ fans when the Blues are winning the games by a big margin. The lyrics are as follows:
Blue is the colour, football is the game
We’re all together, and winning is our aim.
So cheer us on through the sun and rain
’cause Chelsea, Chelsea is our name!
Here at the Bridge whether rain or fine
We can shine all the time
Home or away, come and see us play
You’re welcome any day!
The chant ‘Over Land and Sea’ is a song sung by the fans, especially during the Champions League games. The atmosphere around the stadium during a European game is unreal as the fans are bouncing with optimism and motivation throughout the game. The lyrics are as follows:
We all follow the Chelsea
Over land and sea (and Leicester!)
We all follow the Chelsea
Onto victory!
All together now!
We all follow the Chelsea
Over land and sea (and Leicester!)
We all follow the Chelsea
Onto victory!
A song sung with a lot of love and a lot of pride by the Blues’ fans, the ‘Carefree’ chant is often sung by the fans after the players come out of the half-time interval to boost the atmosphere around the stadium. It is also often used against ‘rival’ fans to indicate that the West London club is the greatest club in the world and the fans take a lot of pride in this. Sung by everybody in the stadium in perfect harmony, the lyrics are as follows:
Carefree, wherever we may be,
We are the famous CFC
And we don’t care,
Whoever you may be
’cause we are the famous CFC.
The chant ‘Blue Day’ is a song originally sung by ‘Suggs & Co’ in a famous video that featured members of the Chelsea first- team. Over the years, this song has been sung with a lot of delight at Stamford Bridge and is close to the heart of a lot of local fans as it directly relates to them. The lyrics are as follows:
The only place to be, every other Saturday
Is strolling down the Fulham Road
Meet your mates, have a drink, have a moan and start to think
Will there ever be a blue tomorrow?
We’ve waited so long, but we’d wait forever
Our blood is blue and we would leave you never
And when we make it, it’ll be together…
Oh oh oh
Chelsea, Chelsea
Chelsea, Chelsea
We’re gonna make this a blue day
Chelsea, Chelsea
Chelsea, Chelsea
We’re gonna make this a blue day

We’ll keep the blue flag flying high

We’ll keep the blue flag flying high!
