#1.
G    C B         E      Abm7
Here I stand I'm just a shell of a man
           E                          Gb
and only a kiss ago I was yesterday's hero.
     Abm7                   Db
When you were mine I had it made, I was 
    Abm7              Db
the leader of the big parade.
     Ebm         Ab              B     Gb
Now, look at me, I'm yesterday's hero, hero.

#2.
B                        Db         Ab
How their cheers used to sing in my ears.
                 E
With you walking by my side I was a conquering 
Gb
hero.
Abm7                  Db
But no one even says, hello, they say that 
Abm7                 Db
idols come and idols go.
      Ebm            Ab              B     Gb
Well, I oughta know, I'm yesterday's hero, hero.


INTERLUDE: B Abm7 Gb


#3.
         Abm7                    Db
Now, the glamour and the glory's gone.
             Abm7                   Db
But will the story of our love live on?
   Ebm       Ab               B
Or fade away like yesterday's hero?
Gb               Abm7                    B
Like yesterday's hero, yeah, yesterday's hero?

OUTRO:
B                        Abm7
Whoaaaaa-ohhh-ohhh-ohhh, hero, wahh-ahhh-ahhh,
B
hero?..(Fade.)
