Verse 1:
Em                                       G
In the back of a downtown dive bar, on a wooden stage in the corner
Am                                      B11
You stand with your beat-up guitar, already halfway gone
Em                                       G
The din of the drunken dreamers who staggered in from the real world
Am                                      B11
They lift their glasses skyward, and turn the TV on

Verse 2:
Em                                       G
You’re singing about a bar fight, a shot and a can of High Life
Am                                      B11
The tears of a girl you just might leave before too long
Em                                       G
A lonesome crying coyote, a sweaty held out high note
Am                          B11
A cowboy riding backroads away from everyone


Chorus:
    Am  Bm       Cm    Em          C/G     Bm           Em
But who are you gonna become if all of your hеroes died young


Bridge:

Verse 3:
Em                                G
You wake in a strangеr’s bedroom, awash in last night’s cheap booze
        Am                                  B11
And she don’t pretend to know you, she just pulls her work clothes on
Em                                       G
You stumble through the weekend, til you finally call your girlfriend
Am                               B11
I guess it’s just not working, I guess I’m just a dog


Verse 4:
Em                            G
You sit at the kitchen table, a six-pack and a capo
Am                            B11
An artist and an asshole, you write all of your wrongs
Em                            G
And your heroes grow unruly, they overdose or just leave
      Am                                    B11
Their lives are fucked up movies and you’ve studied every one


Chorus:
   Am    Bm      Cm    Em       C/G         Bm           Am
But who are you gonna become if all of your heroes are gone
Am  Bm       Cm     Em      C/G         Bm           Em
Who are you gonna become if all of your heroes died young
