Working Class Hero by John Lennon

Dm                          C             Dm
As soon as your born they make you feel small, 
                           C            Dm
By giving you no time instead of it all, 
                                     C         Dm
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all, 
                 C           g        Dm
A working class hero is something to be, 
                C          g             Dm
A working class hero is something to be. 
                               C                Dm
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school, 
                           C               g          Dm
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool, 
                                        C               Dm
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules,
               C            g          Dm 
A working class hero is something to be, 
                C           g          Dm
A working class hero is something to be. 
                                       C              Dm
When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years,
                          C             Dm
Then they expect you to pick a career,
                                        C          Dm
When you can't really function you're so full of fear,
                C           g           Dm
A working class hero is something to be
                C            g          Dm
A working class hero is something to be. 
                                  C         Dm
Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV, 
                                         C        Dm
And you think you're so clever and classless and free,
                                      C            Dm 
But you're still fucking peasents as far as I can see,
                 C          g          Dm 
A working class hero is something to be, 
                 C         g           Dm
A working class hero is something to be. 
                                C               Dm
There's room at the top they are telling you still,
                                   C           Dm 
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill,
                             C             Dm 
If you want to be like the folks on the hill,
                C           g        Dm 
A working class hero is something to be.
                C           g        Dm 
A working class hero is something to be.
                                C            Dm
If you want to be a hero well just follow me, 
If you want to be a hero well just follow me.
