WORKING CLASS HERO- John Lennon


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
                    G                       Am
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all

Chorus 1:

  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                        Am
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
     Am                  G                         Am
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
 Am                    G                            Am
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules

Chorus 2:

  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                        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

Chorus 3:

  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                    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

Chorus 4:

  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 5:

Am                  G                        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 want to be like the folks on the hill

Chorus 5:

  Am            G       D            Am
A working class hero is something to be
  Am            G       G            Am
A working class hero is something to be

Outro:

   Am                  G                   Am
If you want to be a hero well just follow me
   Am                  G                   Am
