Song for remembered heroes Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Well, [G]it's that old time story
Of a [D]new face to glory
Someone [C]wanted my
soul for their [G]pride
What about the system
Of [D]fools arranged for missing
Well, I can[C]'t lie,
they all pass with time
[D]

[Verse 2]
[F]
Why do [C]my people come and [G]go?
I keep on [F]leaving them behind
[C]And Lord, I miss them so[G]
I've watched my [F]heroes change from
[C]Silver into [G]gold
As the [D]time [C]goes, only memories grow
[G]

[Verse 3]
It's your smiles that I remember
The [D]dreams of the young and tender
[C]Coming real, but now it [G]seems
That highways are for foolish
[D]travelers
Always bonded, always shackled
[C]By the prayer that they're remembered
[D]In our dreams

[Verse 4]
[F]
Why do [C]my people come and [G]go?
I keep on [F]leaving them behind
[C]Lord, I miss them so[G]
I've watched my [F]heroes change from
[C]Silver into [G]gold
As the [D]time goes,
[C]only memories grow

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][C]
[G]

[Verse 5]
I am just [G]a barroom child
[D]Tried so damn hard to learn the style
[C]Of your drunken tears, the way they smile
[G]I guess I'll never learn the rul[D]es
I still play the simple fool
Who [C]loves without the chains of lies
[D]

[Verse 6]
[F]
Why do [C]my people come and [G]go?
I keep on [F]leaving them behind
[C]And Lord, I miss them so[G]
I've watched my [F]heroes change from
[C]Silver into [G]gold
As [D]the time [C]goes, only memories [G]grow
As [D]the time goes,
[C]only memories grow

[Outro 1]
[G][D][C][G]
