Working Class Hero by Green Day - Guitar Chords
<< Back to Green Day Song List
Version 1
[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
Am G Am
As soon as you're born they make you feel small
Am G Am
By giving you no time instead of it all
Am G Am
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
Am G D Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G D Am
A working class hero is something to be
[Verse 2]
Am G D Am
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
Am G Am
They hate if you're clever and despise a fool
Am G Am
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules
Am G D Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G D Am
A working class hero is something to be
[Verse 3]
Am G D Am
When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
Am G Am
Then they expect you to pick a career
Am G Am
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
Am G D Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G D Am
A working class hero is something to be
[Verse 4]
Am G D Am
Keep you doped with religion and sex and T.V.
Am G Am
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
Am G Am
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see
Am G D Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G D Am
A working class hero is something to be
[Solo]
Am G D Am x3
Am G D Am Am Am Am
[Verse 5]
Am G D Am
There's room at the top they are telling you still
Am G Am
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
Am G Am
If you wanna be like all the folks on the hill
Am G D Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G D Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G D Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G D Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G D Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G D Am
A working class hero is something to be
* G (F) Gm
If you want to be a hero, well just follow me
Gm F C
If you want to be a hero, well just follow me
* On this line the last chord from Green Day's recording is ringing, while
the John Lennon sample a step lower is fading in.
