Working Class Hero Green Day chords by Green Day

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
