Verse 1:
D MajorD
When I was a kid, I thought I'd save the world
D/C#
Running 'round and chasing all the criminals
B minorBm
Swinging on a web, flying in the sky
A augmentedA        B minorBm C#C# D MajorD E minorEm
Shooting lasers from my eyes
D MajorD
But now I know it never was my destiny
D/C#
It's not my place in life, not who I'm meant to be
B minorBm
And I don't need the glory, I don't need the fame
A augmentedA         B minorBm C#C# D MajorD E minorEm
And I don't wanna wear this cape

Pre Chorus:
B minorBm                 D/C#
'Cause on the inside (on the inside), I know it won’t last
D MajorD               E minorEm
On the inside (on the inside), I’m an outcast


Chorus:
D MajorD              F# minorF#m
Well, everybody needs a hero, but I'm not everybody else
     B minorBm           D/C#      D MajorD     A augmentedA
I walk alone, yeah, I walk alone, yeah, I walk alone, oh, yeah
D MajorD               F# minorF#m
You know, I tried to be a hero, but I was lying to myself
     B minorBm           D/C#      D MajorD     A augmentedA
I walk alone, yeah, I walk alone, yeah, I walk alone, oh, yeah


Verse 2:
D MajorD
They build you up and then they're gonna tear you down
D/C#
They love you, then they hate you if you wear a crown
B minorBm
It's not that I don't love to solve a mystery
A augmentedA               B minorBm C#C# D MajorD E minorEm
But life is hard enough with one identity
D MajorD
If silence is the voice of a new generation
D/C#
Then I could live up to all of your expectations
B minorBm
I'd hammer down hard, like I'm Iron Fist
A augmentedA           B minorBm C#C# D MajorD E minorEm
Then disappear like I don’t exist

Pre Chorus:
B minorBm                 D/C#
And on the inside (on the inside), I know it won’t last
D MajorD               E minorEm
On the inside (on the inside), I’m an outcast

D MajorD              F# minorF#m
Well, everybody needs a hero, but I'm not everybody else
     B minorBm           D/C#      D MajorD     A augmentedA
I walk alone, yeah, I walk alone, yeah, I walk alone, oh, yeah
D MajorD              F# minorF#m
You know, I tried to be a hero, but I was lying to myself
     B minorBm           D/C#      D MajorD     A augmentedA
I walk alone, yeah, I walk alone, yeah, I walk alone, oh, yeah
