My Hero in very simple chords for beginners
 
 
[Intro]
 
E     C#m       x4
F#5   A
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
E        C#m           E         C#m
  Too alarming now, to talk about
E           C#m                E            C#m
  Take your pictures down, and shake it out
E          C#m          E         C#m
  Truth or consequence, say it aloud
E          C#m       E           C#m
  Use that evidence, race it around
 
 
[Chorus]
 
A                                     E
  There goes my hero, watch him as he goes
A                                 E
  There goes my hero, he's ordinary
 
F#5   A
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
E           C#m           E           C#m
  Don't the best of them, bleed it out
E           C#m           E         C#m
  While the rest of them, peter out
E          C#m          E         C#m
  Truth or consequence, say it aloud
E          C#m       E           C#m
  Use that evidence, race it around
 
 
[Chorus]
 
A                                     E
  There goes my hero, watch him as he goes
A                                 E
  There goes my hero, he's ordinary
 
F#5   A
 
 
[Bridge]
 
E          C#m   E               C#m
  Kudos my hero, leaving all the best
E             C#m       E           C#m
  You know my hero, the one that's on
 
 
[Chorus]
 
A                                     E
  There goes my hero, watch him as he goes
A                                 E
  There goes my hero, he's ordinary
 
A                                     E
  There goes my hero, watch him as he goes
A                                 E
  There goes my hero, he's ordinary
 
F#5   A

Thanks for the tab... I found an embellishment fort the chorus that adds the soaring climb strum pattern is 16ths all down When playin A.. bar top 4... strum x4 ...then add pinky to b4. Slide pinky to b5... then slide it all up 2 frets (bar on 4 pinky on 7) In E add pinky on b2....then index a1 & pinky on b4 (d# octave) then slide up on fret to e octave.
