Ill Be A Hero When I Strike chords by Merle Haggard

Chords with lyrics

C majorC
All because I walk a different street


And not helloed by some I meet

      G7G7           C majorC
That don't mean that what I do is right


Those that said that I was wrong


Now say they knew it all along

   G7G7          C majorC
Cause I'll be a hero when I strike

C7C7
I'll be a hero when I strike

   FF          C majorC
Come up tight and out of sight

    FF
They'll say I'm dynamite

  C majorC
And they'd like to be there when I light

   G7G7          C majorC
Cause I'll be a hero when I strike


I love God and the flag


And I ain't the kind to stand and brag

    G7G7               C majorC
And I'm the kind to stand right up and fight


Don't need a uniform to wear


To make the people stop and stare

   G7G7             C majorC
Cause Hoss I'll be a hero when I strike

C7C7
I'll be a hero when I strike

   FF          C majorC
Come up tight and out of sight

    FF
They'll say I'm dynamite

  C majorC
And they'd like to be there when I light

   G7G7          C majorC
Cause I'll be a hero when I strike


Won't shake hands until I'm sore


Wear medals hangin' to the floor

    G7G7               C majorC
They'll throw rocks at Franklin and his kind


They'll say boy ain't that cowboy hot


There ain't nothin' he ain't got

  G7G7             C majorC
But I'm gonna be a hero when I strike


C7C7
I'll be a hero when I strike

   FF          C majorC
Come up tight and out of sight

    FF
They'll say I'm dynamite

  C majorC
And they'd like to be there when I light

   G7G7          C majorC
