John Lennon - Working Class Hero
Written and performed by John Lennon
This is a great song and it's very easy to play.
Am G Am
As soon as your born they make you feel small
Am G Am
By giving you nothing instead of it all
Am G Am
'Til the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
Am G Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G Am
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
Am G Am
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
Am G Am
'Til you're so f***ing crazy you can't follow their rules
Am G Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G Am
When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
Am G Am
Then they expect you to pick a career
Am G Am
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
Am G Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G Am
Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
Am G Am
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
Am G Am
But you're still f***ing peasants as far as I can see
Am G Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G Am
There's room at the top they are telling you still
Am G Am
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
Am G Am
If you want to be like the folks on the hill
Am G Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G Am
A working class hero is something to be
Am G Am
If you want to be a hero well just follow me
Am G Am
If you want to be a hero well just follow me
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official JOHN LENNON tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
