Not for Heroes Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]There are songs about the heroes
and the great things they have done
And [F]the hell they went
through to get this [C]far
But this song is for the cowboy
who never been a hero
And [D]the hard times he goes through all
[G]the while[Gm][G][C][F]
[C]
And all that he's got [G]goin' is [C]his pride
He's [F]never been a hero and
he [C]probably never be one
But [F]in his heart he [D]knows he gave his [G]all
My [F]hat goes off to you my friend and [C]to
the champ you might have been
[F]If Lady Luck [G]had smiled on
you at [C]all
He gives it all he's got but it's never quite enough

[Verse 2]
Oh the Lord and him alone
[C]
know how he's tried
[Db]But he'll try and try again
although he'll never win
And all that he's got goin' is his pride
He's never been a hero...

[Verse 3]
The [Db]bones are just too tough
and he doesn't have enough
Of [Gb]what it takes to make
it to [Db]the top
What makes him want to go well
Lord I guess I know
He loves it too damn [Ab]much to ever stop
[Db]He's never been a hero...

[Verse 4]
He [Db]bites the dust once more
gets up to hear no score
Then [Gb]he stumbles to the chutes
to ease [Db]the pain
And underneath his breath
he cusses to himself
I'll ride him if I [Ab]get the chance [Db]again
He's [Gb]never been a hero...
